Who better to guide beer aficionados through Milwaukee's beer scene than a dedicated home brewer who turned his passion into a thriving business? Russ Klisch founded Lakefront Brewery with his brother Jim. Sibling rivalry over who could create the best homebrew led to the creation of one of Milwaukee's most beloved craft breweries.
What makes Milwaukee a great city for beer fans?
Milwaukee is the only U.S. city that has a rich history of both heritage breweries and cutting-edge craft breweries.
