Sample free, ice-cold beers after witnessing how water is transformed into the tasty, frothy brew that made Milwaukee famous.

Order a crisp martini and investigate a mind-boggling collection of espionage and spy paraphernalia at this one-of-a-kind back-alley bar.

A good list, but no trip to Milwaukee would be complete without a stop at Coerper's. Best steak I have ever tasted. Yes I know the lads have sold to a Chicago concern, and will be leaving in about a month.
