Torzala Brewing Co. Brewery • $$
2018 S 1st St #207, Milwaukee

“One of our new favorite breweries, Torzala is truly a hidden gem. It’s one-of-a-kind atmosphere is quiet and cozy yet so welcoming. The owners and bartenders are incredibly friendly and have a “strangers are just friends we haven’t met yet” attitude. We loved our time here and can’t wait to go back soon!“

“I have not had the food. I usually just go for a beer. They have a great rewards program and they always have a great beer selection, so many varieties. The staff is always friendly but today Julie, the bartender and by herself and she was busy but she was still super friendly and took great care of us.“

“The perfect vegan brewery! Come here for every event and you won't be disappointed! Service is always great, and the arcade surroundings will wrap you in a warm blanket of nostalgia. It's your friend's basement where you played video games as a kid, and your friend's mom has made pizza!“

Honey Blonde Ale

“We had a great time here. They have a nice space, it has a nice atmosphere and is well decorated. We did not get to see the beer garden or explore much though. For a brewery about to celebrate 26 years they do have a tap list that reflects that experience. Lots of good dark beers, pilots, small batch, barrel aged, etc. Also, the company was very good. We spent a while talking to our bartender and other patrons. One of my top 10 breweries we've visited.“

“We walked in here on New Years Day and had to wonder if they were open. It's a great space, very nice bar, good seating, and a few games. Lots of bathrooms and you can see the brewery equipment. It was a slow start but really grew on us. The beers were good. The abv was lower but the beers were also a bit more refreshing. It was a good menu, great space, good service, and a good time. It strikes me as an "old money" brewery. Everything is deceptively nice. Look at the bar, the rugs, the bathrooms, the walls. It's a nice place and very understated. We were surprised by how dead it was, there were only 2 to 8 other people besides us.“

“We've been here a few times, and the food is always pretty good, but I'm pleased to say we've finally had something that we thought was really exceptionally well done, which was the Buffalo Cauliflower Bites. These were really excellent, and I would probably get them instead of wings here in the future. The rest of the meal was good as well, a wide variety of options are available, so I'd say this is a good option for family or business meals where you need something to please different palettes. Conveniently located directly on a HOP Streetcar stop as well.“

Wizard Works Brewing Company Brewery • $$
231 E Buffalo St, Milwaukee

“We stopped by last night. I got a flight to try a few different flavors. All were very tasty. One of the best stouts I’ve ever had. Great atmosphere, great people. Chris is just fantastic. I wasn’t planning on getting anything to go, but the beer was so good, I grabbed a few crowlers to bring home. We will certainly be back!“

“I meant to do this in November. I took Amtrak to Milwaukee. I went to the art museum and walked back to my hotel. I randomly found this place. When I got there, there were about 20 ladies waiting to get in. They were just about to open. I was in no rush, but while the ladies were figuring out their drink selections, Benjamin Rossi (just found your card in my bag) took my order and suggested the most perfect beer I'd had in quite some time.I'm usually with my husband when trying new breweries, but I was solo. He made me feel extremely comfortable. We talked about beer. He informed me that he was not only the server but did some brewing. The two beers I tried were great. He gave me some suggestions for other spots too. I just wanted to thank him. I wasn't having the best day...and that was so pleasant. I didn't get around to trying the food, but we will next time. It's a must try. ....and what a beautiful space. Thanks, Ben... Oliver if you can remember that far back. It was November. LOL“

“I was down on water Street on a Sunday during Easter and they were open which pleased to me! The service was excellent! I did not eat so I can't comment on the foodParking: This location is very tough on a Saturday and a Friday! There were shootings down at Pfizer forum and now it's a train wreck The cops are everywhere and it's a total circus I wouldn't recommend going down here on a Saturday night it's impossible to find a place to park unless you Uber or walk 2 miles it sucks Milwaukee is a train wreck“
