Milwaukee, WI and the Brewery  July 18, 2012           

Ask most anyone and if you mention Milwaukee, they'll think of Brewery or Brewers.  The Brewers were in town so we could not tour the stadium but got a good view from the Interstate.  It has a roof that will slide to cover the top.  How cool is that.  Too bad KC didn't go through with their original plan of rolling roof.



Miller Brewing Company was founded in 1855 by Frederick Miller.  It is said that it is his granddaughter that is the girl in the moon on their logo.  The term "High Life" on their label referred to the high society parties given in the early days.






From these simple beginnings, Miller now makes all the Miller brands plus Coors, Hamm's, Ice House, Keystone, Mickey's Malt Liquor, Old Milwaukee, Old English, Red Dog, South Paw Grolsch, Peroni, Blue Moon, Leinenkugels, Killian's Irish Red, Foster and more!









They gave generous samples which we enjoyed after our long walk around buildings.
