Milwaukee’s Lakefront Brewery has been brewing great, local beer since 1987. Do the math and you’ll note that its president and co-owner, Russ Klisch, has been hard at work for nearly 30 years. Great years of great beer and good times, but hard times on the hips.
So, Klisch is currently out of the office healing from hip surgery. Email him, and his out of the office response is exactly what you’d expect from a beer maker. Love it!
Cheers to you, Russ, and here’s to a quick hip heal.
In other Lakefront news, its ramp on Commerce street is completed and now fully ADA compliant.
