RETRO BEER NIGHT

Milwaukee, WI- Come to the Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion on Friday, October 22nd, 6-8pm, and discover or re-discover some true Milwaukee greats: Pabst, Blatz, Schlitz, and Old Milwaukee. Join us for a retro evening of beer tasting, grilled brats, give-a-ways, fond memories, and great history. A Milwaukee 'Octoberfest' made possible by the generous support of our great friends at Beloit Beverage Company, Usinger's, Quality Candy, and Buddy Squirrel.

RETRO BEER NIGHT will premier the arrival of our new German stein!! The first fully licensed Pabst Brewing Company stein in years. Featuring historic Pabst gnome artwork and hand numbered. This is a limited series of 500 steins made in Germany. Get them now 'cause once they're gone, they are gone!
