Over 400 years of German brewing tradition meets Milwaukee’s pioneering craft beer expertise in a transatlantic partnership.

LAKEFRONT BREWERY AND HOFBRÄU MÜNCHEN UNITE FOR “BRÄU BUDDIES,” A
LANDMARK COLLABORATION FOR BOTH BREWERIES

One of Germany’s most renowned breweries is joining forces with one of America’s premier lager producers to create a special collaboration brew: Bräu Buddies. Hofbräu München and Milwaukee’s Lakefront Brewery have partnered to craft a rustic German-style lager, featuring Vienna and Melanoidin malts that deliver a freshly toasted biscuit aroma, moderate sweetness, and a smooth, medium-light body.

The idea for Bräu Buddies was first conceived last year during a conversation between Lakefront, Hofbräu, and Julian Kegel of Kegel’s Inn, the historic West Allis-based German restaurant. Kegel was interested in a collaboration for their 100th anniversary. To formulate the brew, Lakefront Brewery’s Head Brewer, Luther Paul, traveled to Munich to develop the recipe alongside Hofbräu’s expert brewers to ensure a true-to-tradition rustic lager. Now, a year later, the much-anticipated brew is ready to hit the shelves. Starting this month, six packs will be available at retailers in Wisconsin, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, New Jersey, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina.

Brau Buddies

Hofbräu München and Lakefront Brewery have had many local partnerships in the past. With the quality German-style beers that Lakefront has brewed, many of them were launched at the Old German Beer Hall or at the Estabrook Beer Garden with the support of owner and Hofbräu representative, Hans Weissgerber lll. A trusted relationship developed over the years between Lakefront and Weissgerber, who supported this collaboration and helped bring it to fruition.

“Collaborating with one of the world’s most legendary breweries is an incredible honor,” said Russ Klisch, Owner and President of Lakefront Brewery. “I consider this one of the most significant moments for our brewery.”

“Our Bräu Buddies collaboration represents the deep-rooted friendships that beer fosters – between breweries, between cultures, between two great brewing cities, and between the people who share it,” said Steve Ksycki, CEO of Hofbräuhaus of America. “This beer is a true symbol of what can be achieved when brewers come together, and we’re excited to get to do this with our friends from Lakefront.”

To celebrate this collaboration, Lakefront Brewery and Hofbräu München have teamed up with great Milwaukee establishments to mark the release of this collaboration:

• Friday, April 4th – The Old German Beer Hall will tap a complimentary keg of Bräu Buddies for patrons, starting at 6 PM.
•  Saturday, April 26th – Kegel’s Inn will feature Bräu Buddies at Bock Fest, a signature celebration of German beer culture.
• Saturday, May 3rd – The Estabrook Park Beer Garden celebrates the 2025 season with its annual Maifest Weekend and Grand Opening Celebration May 2 through 4. Lakefront and Hofbräu Munich Breweries will tap a wooden keg of their first ever collaboration beer, Bräu Buddies, at noon on Saturday May 3rd. Enjoy free beer from the keg while it lasts!

The Lakefront Brewery Beer Hall will serve Bräu Buddies throughout April and May, featuring an exclusive commemorative pint glass created for the collaboration. Guests can purchase and keep the glass with a Bräu Buddies full pour for $10. The glass will also be available for purchase without the beer.

Women and non-binary individuals gathered at Lakefront to brew a beer in celebration of Pink Boots Society who work to recognize the positive impact women and non-binary individuals have on the alcoholic beverage industry.

The Pink Boots Collab Team

On January 9th, 15 Pink Boots collaborators gathered in Lakefront’s production facility to grind malt, test gravity, add hops, and create Queen Bean, a Caramel Coffee Blonde Ale brewed with Stone Creek Coffee beans. Lakefront Brewery’s Retail & Donations Coordinator, Elizabeth Mauritz, chose the style to combine her love of craft coffee and craft beer while also collaborating with fellow B Corp, Stone Creek Coffee.

The Pink Boots Collab Team in Action

“My career first led me to coffee, and later to craft beer at Lakefront Brewery. You tend to see coffee more often in stouts or porters, but I prefer the lightness of coffee blonde ales, which allow for a more balanced and delicate coffee flavor to shine. Stone Creek Coffee is my favorite local roastery, and they are also a B Corp just like Lakefront. It’s a great feeling to be able to collaborate with another company that holds itself to a higher standard and has a sense of purpose beyond profit.” Caramel and vanilla were added for a hint of sweetness, inspired by Mauritz’s preferred coffee additives. The label was designed by former Lakefront employee and Pink Boots collaborator Amy-Sue Hazel, featuring a serene goddess formed from the swirls of coffee inside a mug.

Lakefront is releasing Queen Bean on Friday, March 7th on draft and in 12-ounce cans, a first for their Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day brews. They will be donating $1 for every full pour, $2 for every crowler, and $1 for each can consumed on-site to Pink Boots Society’s National and Wisconsin Chapters. The equivalent of $3 for every 6-pack to go will also be donated. Single cans, 6-packs, and crowlers can be scheduled for pick up through their online ordering menu (https://order.toasttab.com/online/lakefrontbrewery) starting at 9 am on Friday, March 7th. Individuals can also purchase Queen Bean in all varieties from their main bar once they open at 11 am.

Queen Bean Release

Lakefront notes that Queen Bean will have a special draft-only sneak peek at The Roman Coin, the night before, on Thursday March 6th starting at 6 pm.

MILWAUKEE DIAPER MISSION IS BACK AT LAKEFRONT BREWERY, LOOKING TO PILE THE DIAPERS EVEN HIGHER. Lakefront and Milwaukee Diaper Mission team up for their 3^rd annual diaper drive, after 2 successful events in 2023 and 2024.

Lakefront Brweery Diaper Drive 2025

Lakefront Brewery’s 2024 diaper drive was the 2^nd biggest donation intake event for Milwaukee Diaper Mission bringing in 9,300 diapers and over 19,000 wipes. Lakefront is eyeing that top spot and is asking the community to help get diapers into the hands of the people who need them most.

“Milwaukee Diaper Mission has been such a local hero to the Milwaukee community”, says Liz Mauritz, Lakefront’s Ripple Effect donation program coordinator, “they continue to grow and expand their reach, so we’re excited to support their continued success. Learning how many caretakers struggle with such a basic need as diapers is heartbreaking. Our diaper drives give us that avenue to activate our space and make a difference. As a family-friendly establishment, we see this as an opportunity to give back.”

On Sunday, February 16^th, bring in as many unopened, fully packaged, disposable diapers as you want to Lakefront Brewery from 11AM to 4PM and receive Lakefront cash in return. For every diaper you donate, you will receive $.25 (25 cents) in Lakefront Brewery gift cards to spend in their Beer Hall that day or any day in the future. Lakefront will also be accepting fully packaged baby wipes and training pants, giving out $.25 for each pair of training pants and for every 10 wipes. Milwaukee Diaper Mission will accept all applicable items they can help distribute but please be aware that diapers, training pants, and wipes will be the only items accepted for Lakefront Brewery gift cards.

Milwaukee Diaper Mission does note that they’re most in need of 2, 3, 5, and 6-size diapers. If you can’t make it down to Lakefront but still want to show your support? Visit Milwaukee Diaper Mission’s website here: https://www.milwaukeediapermission.org/

Milwaukee Diaper Mission is a basic needs bank. They partner with local social service agencies to provide a reliable source of essentials, including diapers, something that shouldn’t be considered a luxury, but a need. One in two families in the U.S. lack the funds to keep up with their diaper needs. Milwaukee Diaper Mission utilizes a distribution model that is efficient and cost-effective, ensuring that diapers get in the hands of those who need them most.

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.

You can find the brewery maps here:

Lakefront Brewery’s Baltic Porter

Lakefront’s new Brewers’ Reserve Baltic Porter Aged in Port Barrels releases this Friday, while supplies last, only at the brewery.

The tenth in the series for Lakefront Brewery, their Brewers’ Reserves are packaged in 12 oz. cans and are only available at their Beer Hall. These limited rare beers allow their brewhouse wizards to experiment with niche-barrel-aged styles concocting inspired treats for your enjoyment.

A descendant of the English Porter, Baltic Porters offer a more robust and sweeter flavor profile perfect for some time spent in a port wine barrel. This dark, cocoa-brown, cold-fermented lager, weaves together layers of malt, toffee, and molasses. The port wine barrel-aging adds flavors of oak plank, vanilla, dried fruit, and marzipan. The ideal pairing for your favorite winter comfort meal or that cozy night by the fire.

Lakefront will be releasing this Brewers’ Reserve this Friday, December 20^th just in time for the holidays and any last-minute gifting needs. This liquid gold comes in at a session-able 6.5% and becomes available in their online ordering menu starting at 9am that day, when you can schedule a pickup time over the weekend. The cans will also be available for purchase at their main bar when they open their doors at 11am, while supplies last. Single cans to-go will run you $3 + tax. A 6-pack will cost $15 + tax.

Click HERE to access their online ordering menu on December 20^th.

LAKEFRONT BREWERY UNVEILS THEIR 2024 LINEUP OF BLACK FRIDAY BEERS FOR YEAR 14

LAKEFRONT BREWERY UNVEILS THEIR 2024 LINEUP OF BLACK FRIDAY BEERS FOR YEAR 14

Black Friday is a big day for beer, the local brewery looks forward to continuing their tradition of hosting one of the biggest Milwaukee beer events of the year.

It’s not too long after Thanksgiving dinner that beer fans will begin to line up at the Milwaukee staple on Commerce Street. Their doors will open at 8AM the next day to a line of hundreds of excited and thirsty Black Friday guests.
“We have created three barrel-aged beers that have been aging all year and a triple IPA that are all world class and that are only available on Black Friday”, says Russ Klisch, President and Co-Founder of Lakefront Brewery, “Besides the great beer, I always look forward to spending time with folks out in line where there’s an unmatched level of excitement.”

Lakefront offers up the following 4 varieties of their rare Black Friday™ beer to take home:

• 2024 Black Friday™ Imperial Stout | Aged in Bourbon and Brandy barrels, the 2024 version of our gold standard brew combines massive caramel and roasted malts with huge vanilla and oak flavor. Sold for $20 each plus tax.
• 2024 Black Friday™ Triple Black IPA | Big, bold, and hoppy, this Triple Black IPA hits the glass obsidian black with a foamy tan head kicking up aromas of chocolate, orange zest, and rose water. Gratuitous Cascade, Chinook, and Centennial hops yield up-front citrus and tropical fruit notes, while Belgian caramel malts lend balance and sweet cocoa and caramel flavors. Sold for $20 each plus tax.
• 2024 Black Friday™ Imperial Brown Ale Aged in Wollersheim Winery Port Barrels | A big, hearty Imperial Brown Ale aged in Port wine barrels from Wisconsin’s own Wollersheim Winery. Brought together, flavors of brown bread crusts and caramel malt roll into port notes of oak plank, vanilla, dried fruit, and marzipan. Sold for $30 each plus tax.
• 2024 Black Friday™ 5-Year-Old | This big stout has been asleep in Bourbon barrels since 2019. The big, roasty, chocolatey Imperial Stout left all traces of alcohol heat behind in the barrel and picked up flavors of vanilla, pecan praline, marzipan, and a touch of pipe tobacco. Sold for $30 each plus tax.

All varieties will be packaged in colorful 19.2 oz. cans and placed in dynamic individual boxes with no limit to the amount that an individual can purchase. Lakefront notes that the yield of 2024 Black Friday™ beers will be shorter than in recent years as only 2,000 cans of the regular version and only 1,000 of each varietal will be available. Show up early this year to enjoy breakfast items (and cheese curds) from their famous CurdWagon starting at 5AM. Our gift shop inside will open early with exclusive Black Friday items and other warm weather garb if your preparations weren’t up to snuff.

A collectible Black Friday souvenir-dated glass will be free for those who purchase a minimum of 4 Black Friday™ cans.

Lakefront is excited to announce the return of the Warm Hearts Community Coat Drive benefiting students of George Washington Carver Elementary. Guests who donate a laundered, gently used coat suitable for youth ages 3 to 14 years will receive one bottle/can of a prior year’s Black Friday™. Guests may donate additional coats with a maximum of 2 bottles/cans per donor over 21. Coats will be accepted conditionally at Lakefront Brewery’s discretion to ensure immediate wearability. They also encourage donors to bring colorful, youth-appropriate items, especially coats for girls and young teen women, giving students the dignity of choice.

The Riverwest Brewing Syndicate (Lakefront Brewery, Black Husky Brewing, Gathering Place Brewery, Amorphic Beer) recently announced the return of their Black Friday shuttle bus. Starting at Lakefront, the shuttle will make continuous round trips to all four breweries from 10AM to 3PM. As always, Lakefront encourages everyone to make safe, responsible choices when it comes to these events.

Curd Day (2024) at Lakefront Brewery

LAKEFRONT BREWERY PREPARES TO CELEBRATE NATIONAL CHEESE CURD DAY, HOLDS A CHEESE CURD PULL COMPETITION

It’s the 7^th annual event from the local brewery that has championed the art of fried cheese curds, the proper garlic ranch dipping sauce, and how to produce specialty flavor varieties.

One of Lakefront Brewery’s favorite days of the year has returned! Tuesday, October 15^th is National Cheese Curd Day and Lakefront is opening early at 11AM to celebrate. The event will feature their gold standard beer-battered curds with their classic garlic ranch as well as their favorite Thursday Curdsday flavors from the past year. Every Thursday, Lakefront features a specialty curd flavor, these 3 flavors are making their return for the big day.

Chicken Fried Cheese Curds – A little bit of chicken fried, a cold beer on a Tuesday night. Fresh cheddar cheese curds are battered and breaded then deep fried and seasoned with 11 secret spices. Served with brown gravy for dipping.

General Tso – Sweet, spicy, and savory. Fresh cheddar cheese curds are battered, breaded, and deep fried, then tossed in sweet and spicy sauce. Topped with chili pepper flakes and chives.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough – The favorite ice cream flavor is now a cheese curd variety! Fresh cheddar cheese curds are tossed in a sweet batter then breaded with chocolate chip cookie crumbles and deep fried. Topped with cookie dough chunks and served with chocolate syrup.

All 4 options will be available in their standard portion size, usually good for 2 to 3 people. Guests can order all 3 of the above specialty flavors for a $3 discount. Lakefront’s Gluten-Free CurdWagon will be out front from 5PM to 7PM dishing out gluten-free regular curds for those that wish to celebrate safely.

After successful returns last year, the Lakefront Brewery Cheese Curd Pull Competition is back! Teams of 2 can sign up to compete in the contest. Choose the stretchiest curd from the bunch, step up to the pull markers, and test your dexterity against the field. Competitions will occur at 5PM, 6PM, and 7PM with times being added as needed. Reservations require a deposit of $12 but will include 2 drinks upon arrival with non-alcoholic products available for those interested or under 21 (must be 21+ to compete unless accompanied by a parent). The team with the longest cheese curd string from each contest will receive two $15 gift cards from Lakefront Brewery.

LAKEFRONT RELEASES LATEST BREWERS’ RESERVE: IMPERIAL PUMPKIN ALE.

Lakefront Brewery will release its latest, limited, Brewers’ Reserve beer, 7-Year Barrel-Aged Imperial Pumpkin Ale on Friday, September 27^th from 11am to 9pm.

Lakefront Brewery is constantly “squirreling-away” barrel-aged beer. Just over 7-years ago, a few Imperial Pumpkin brandy barrels were filled and forgotten about in their barrel room. Recently, they were brought out and packaged into 12oz cans. On Friday, September 27^th, they’ll be made for sale exclusively at the Brewery’s Beer Hall.

“This will be the 10^th limited release Brewers’ Reserve beer that we’ve packaged,” said Lakefront Brewery President, Russ Klisch. “This batch is packed with flavor, while also being one of the first to feature water used from our brand new deaeration system.”

7-Year Barrel-Aged Imperial Pumpkin Brewers’ Reserve is available at Lakefront Brewery Beer Hall only. The sale begins on September 27^th at 11am (opening), and is first come, first served. You can preorder through the Lakefront Brewery website at:  https://order.toasttab.com/online/lakefrontbrewery. You must choose the release day (September 27) to find the beer, purchase, and arrange your pickup time.

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:

• MAPS OF BREWERIES

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.
