I think they turned the old Pabst brewery into a museum or something. My old high school principal goes there all the time.

Re: Milwaukee?? whats good there??
At least you can buy Michigan craft beers there
Re: Milwaukee?? whats good there??
Lakefront Brewery has a cool tour, and some excellent beers. The Milwaukee museum is outstanding, if that is your thing. They have some sort of festival almost every weekend. Like someone else said The Eagle Ballroom has good shows regularly. Going for a stroll on the lakefront is nice, and great bike paths. I like Milwaukee, lots of independently owned pubs, restaurants, with tours for historic places.

I did the Lakefront tour about a month ago and had a lot of fun. Some great beer. I also went to a great comedy show at the Pabst Theater.

Yeah, I forgot the Brewers. Tailgate in parking lot. Get sloppy drunk, get more drunk at game. The new stadium is nice but I will always have great memories of being drunk as fuck in theCounty Stadium bleachers.

We went one time the Yankees were in town. We sat in the bleachers and heckled Dave Winfield so much that he flipped us off using his glove to hide it. Lol !

Defo check out The Rave/Eagles Ballroom... It's a nice little place built back in the 20s and has a cool atmosphere to it.

Last time I went to a show there I swear it took almost an hour to get out of that place. They routed us past the main doors, through every hallway, basement, and closet in the place. And it was about 100 degrees.
Good show, cool place, but Gat Dam I just wanted to GTFO and they wouldn't let me.
