Hosed on Brady
A brand new concept in an old location, Hosed on Brady opened last fall in the spot formerly occupied by Franklin Place. Decorated with firefighter memorabilia from throughout the Milwaukee area, Hosed is a good stop for great regional Hook and Ladder beer and local hospitality.
Menu: Hosed on Brady boasts a standard menu with tap beer, full liqour selection and a few and far between wines by the glass.
Price: This is the perfect stop if you're looking to grab a cheap drink. There are specials nearly every night and prices are meant to attract neighbors and visitors alike.
When to go: Located next to the firestation on Brady Street and Franklin, owner Donna Olson pours free shots each and every time the trucks go out on a run. Look for great happy hour deals and game day specials.
Dress: Casual is key here. This is your local, neighborhood pub so feel free to come straight from work, in Sunday sweats or jeans and T-shirts.
Don't miss: Serving New York's Hook and Ladder beer on tap, a
portion of every beer sold is donated to firefighter burn treatment and
care.Â
Parking: Metered parking is available along Brady Street and there;'s street parking on Franklin Place.
1689 N. Franklin Pl., (414) 223-3919

Are you talking solid color sweats or patterned sweats (ie: Sponge Bob, Mario, Corona beer). I want to make sure I dont wear the wrong sweats and look silly!

It's a nice bar. Definite upgrade from Franklin Place. They did a great job cleaning it up.
