On December 2nd, 1987, brothers Russ and Jim Klisch opened Lakefront Brewery and sold their first keg of Riverwest Stein Amber Lager to a neighborhood tavern in Milwaukee. We have grown to brew 44,808 barrels of beer in 2019 and have received numerous awards in many of the world’s most renowned beer competitions. Our products are now distributed to 33 U.S. states, Canada, and Ukraine. Lakefront Brewery is a Certified B Corporation, the first brewery to produce a government-approved, gluten-free beer and the first to brew an indigenous beer using all Wisconsin-grown ingredients. We currently brew 30+ year-round and seasonal beers including a specialty barrel-aged series and our unique, one-off My Turn Series which showcases four of our full time employees each year by allowing them the opportunity to brew a style of their choice. We work hard to make the best beer, our reward is sharing it with you!
