Sidle up to a dinosaur and sample some of the best food and drink Wisconsin has to offer at the Milwaukee Public Museum's 16th annual Food & Froth Fest, Saturday, Feb. 22.

At the event, sponsored by Potawatomi Bingo Casino, there will be more than 200 different beers from the Midwest and beyond to sample. You’ll also be able to get a taste of Southeastern Wisconsin-based restaurants and caterers such as Joey Buona’s and Beans & Barley.

Upside Groove Coalation and brass quintet Sterling & Brass will provide musical entertainment.

Food & Froth tickets are $55 for MPM members, $70 for non-members and $125 for VIP tickets. The VIP tickets include early entrance at 5:30 p.m. into the VIP room, which will have additional beer and appetizers, as well as 6:30 p.m. entry into the event.

Admission covers all beer, food and entertainment. You must be at least 21 years of age to attend, and a valid I.D. and ticket are required for entry into the event. Tickets are available by calling (414) 28-2728 or (888) 700-9069 during regular museum hours.

Proceeds benefit the museum’s exhibits and educational programs. For a complete list of sponsors, vendors and bands, please go to mpm.edu. You better hurry because this event sells out quickly! Hmm, I wonder why?
