Of all the brewery tours available in Milwaukee, this one has the unlimited beer! $7 gets you a pint to keep and fill with all of their beer available, just be careful because some people were taking advantage of the seemingly unlimited supply. Make sure you have a designated driver when you go here. Overall a fun and educational beer... More

We randomly visited Milwaukee Brewing Co. and it was by far the best expereince I had in Milwaukee. This tiny brewery hosts hundreds and hundreds of guests. For $7.00 you get a tour (the tour gides are hilarious) and unlimited microcraft beer. Their beer is delicious and it is awesome that you can try all 9 flavors! This is a... More

This brewpub has some fine seating areas (inside and out) looking across theMilwaukee River which runs immediately behind. (I believe motorboats can dock and access the restaurant.) Beer is so highly subjective . . . for my tastes, nothing great here . . . their ales tend a bit 'hoppy' and bitter to my palette. As for the food, I've... More

MBC offers tours throughout the week and weekend, however I recommend the Saturday open house. For two hours you can sample as many beers as you like (the tours are shorter than normal and optional if you really don't care about the technical details of the brewing process) and meet some new people.

We have been to Milwaukee many times, but had not taken the time to do the brewery tours. We engaged KBC Tours and were delighted with the tour and Kay our guide. This was a wonderful way to spend the day and find out more about Milwaukee. First stop was the Milwaukee Distillery Tour, not a brewery, but a hidden... More

Had 15 different beers, about 10 oz pours, plus a tour and a pint glass all for $7. I may have had too much to drink but it was a great time. Highly recommended for beer lovers and/or those drinking on a budget. More

However, it's not a tour you want to take your grandma to. Valgur, throwing things, a little drunk,....but that's what makes this place unique. It's the perfect place to hit up to start your night of drinking with your friends. For $7.00 you get a tour, a pint glass (to keep) with all the beer you can drink during the... More

The good part is that they give you a lot of samples and a pint glass while on the tour. The bad part was the tour guide. He was drunk and often incohearant, and this was at 3 in fhe afternoon. He refused to use the microphones provided, every 3rd word was "um" and every 8th word was an "f-bomb"... More

My brother (who has been on this and other Milwaukee brewery tours hundreds-literally- of times) took us here on our recent trip. The tour guide knew his beer and knew his audience...and our limited attention to long-winded beer history. This is the most beer you will get for the price, anywhere, ever. Plus a free beer elsewhere in the city... More
