The Lakefront Brewery tour is the best brewery tour there is. Hands down, no doubt. This isn't the first time I took the tour, but it was different this time because of Curtsy, the tour guide. He was truly the funniest, most entertaining, engaging tour guide of all the tour guides on all the brewery tours.I love how they give you beer at the beginning of the tour, in the middle of the tour, and at the end of the tour. We drank a variety of beer, my favorite of the day is called Wheat Monkey or Monkey Wheat...I can't remember after having a few of these. All I know is it was fun before we even started. The brewery bought some of the props from old County Stadium so we took photos in Bernie's house.
BJ was a little disappointed that they handed us a plastic cup thinking this was his souvenir but it was just for the safety of the tour. The guide even explained how they are going green and these cups were made from recycled biodegradable materials that are recycled again after we use them. We got the real glass beer glasses at the end of the tour. It was interesting to learn that all beer is made with the same 4 ingredients, barley, hops , yeast and water. Amazing how it all comes out differently.At the end, we all sat out on the Milwaukee River and enjoyed the beautiful day. It felt kind of weird that we were going to a wedding after the tour, so we were dressed better than necessary for a brewery tour. It didn't matter, it was fun, even in the stuffy dressy clothes.
