We stopped at Lakefront during a weekend visit to Milwaukee and LOVED it! We did not stop laughing the entire time, and the beer was delicious! Highly recommend visiting!

Tour is $7 and you receive a pint glass to take home and 4 wooden tokens. Each beer from tap is 1 token and a rootbeer is 2. Get there early and enjoy a beer before the tour. There will also be another opportunity to enjoy another beer on the tour. Our tour guide was Rachel and she was funny... More

I had never been on a brewery tour before (I don't even drink beer!). But I absolutely loved this tour and I drank all four beers! For $7 you get 4 tokens for beers, a tour and a pint glass! Our tour guide was HILARIOUS and kept the tour interesting and you could tell he loved what he was doing.... More

Lakefront Brewery was one of my favorite brewery experiences to date. For only $7, participants get 4 drink tokens, a coupon for a beer at tons of area restaurants, a full brewery tour, and either a pint glass or $2 off something in the gift shop. The drinks were generous, the tour guides and all the workers were phenomenal and... More

Went on a tour with our adult children (in their 20's). For $7 you get 4 tokens and a wristband for your tour. We arrived shortly after they opened on a Saturday and were able to start our tour in only 20 minutes. You can have a beer or two before the tour and then have more during and after.... More

There's not much to do in Milwaukee so we came to see how they brew beer and I guess this was the best place. We kind of hated that they gave beer to everyone before and during the tour because the smell wasn't tempting but I guess nobody really bothered us. It was worth it.

This tour is always great. I have been there 3 or 4 time and enjoy it every time. The staff is funny, nice and great at giving tours. Oh...the beer is awesome as well. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have a fun time and drink some beers.

What a great tour and tasting for $7.00 a person! Tour was funny and just a great time. The 4 free beers were very good as well. At the end of the tour you get to trade your beer cup in for a pint glass now whats better than that!
