Another small, locally-owned microbrewery specializing in handmade beers in the tradition of early Milwaukee brewers. Along the Milwaukee River just north of downtown, at the foot of Brewers' Hill. Offers tours on Friday nights along with a fish fry.
A very beautiful theatre on the East Side that maintains a lot of character unlike modern cinemas. The amazing artwork and decoration within the theatre will take your breath away once you see this gem. Most of the films shown here cater to the independent, arthouse, and foreign film crowd (a reflection of the neighborhood the theatre is in); however, they do bring in a few of the Hollywood hits. They also show Rocky Horror Picture Show the second Saturday of every month at midnight.
