LAKEFRONT SUPPORTS SUICIDE PREVENTION WITH A BEER AND AN EVENT
Lakefront Brewery has brewed its “Save A Weiss” beer once again to help raise awareness of National Suicide Prevention Week, which begins Sunday, Sept. 8th.
Lakefront Brewery is teaming up, once again, with a nationwide coalition of brewers for a suicide prevention awareness initiative inspired by O.H.S.O Brewing in Phoenix, Arizona. O.H.S.O owner, Jon Lane, had lost family and friends to suicide, and even had ideations himself. He credits the stranger he spoke to after dialing 988 for saving his life. In July of 2020, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) formally designated 988 as a nationwide 3-digit lifeline for mental health crisis and suicide prevention services. Lakefront hopes their “Save A Weiss” beer will raise awareness of the help out there, and with 988, there’s always a listening ear available.
“Our efforts last year meant so much to us, we wanted to repeat helping this very important cause,” said Lakefront Brewery President, Russ Klisch. “Please, come on down, have a beer, and maybe learn a little about suicide prevention.”
With the start of National Suicide Prevention Week on Sunday, September 8th, Lakefront will be donating $1 of every pint sold of the German-style Wheat Ale, Save A Weiss, to the AFSP Wisconsin chapter. The AFSP organization is focused on eliminating the loss of life from suicide by delivering innovative prevention programs, educating the public, raising funds for suicide research, and reaching out to those who have lost someone to suicide. Grab a pint all week long through Sunday, September 14th.
Help us and all the other collaborating breweries spread the word about the 988 suicide prevention line. It could literally save a life. Learn more about the 988 lifeline by clicking here.
*The Save A Weiss Wheat Ale will be on tap starting Thursday, September 5th, and the $1 donations will also begin that day.
At 6pm tonight, Lakefront is partnering with the Wisconsin AFSP to host a “Talk Saves Lives” Happy Hour at their Beer Hall. “Talk Saves Lives: An Introduction to Suicide Prevention” is a community-based presentation that covers the general scope of suicide, the research on prevention, and what people can do to fight suicide. Free registration is preferred, but not required: https://tsllfbwi.attendease.com/ Anyone 21+ may join.

We are working on a massive project here at The Beer Thrillers. We are creating a map of all of the breweries across the United States. State by state we are adding maps of all of the different states with every brewery in each state. (We will eventually get to the US Territories, as well as the Canadian Provinces, and possibly more countries; as well as doing some fun maps like a map of all the breweries we’ve been to, and other fun maps.) You can find the brewery maps here:
We are also working on a project of creating printable and downloadable PDFs and resources to be able to check and keep track of all of the breweries you’ve been to. So stay tuned for that project once we are finished with the Brewery Maps of the US States.
