Lakefront Brewery Maifest

It's the inaugural year of Lakefront Brewery's Maifest - a gluten-free friendly celebration of Spring!

Join us as we embrace the warm weather with an outdoor celebration featuring a variety of vendors dishing out food, beverages, art, crafts, and other local flair. The entire area to the East side of our building will be transformed into a makers market that will keep your hands full! Take in views of the Milwaukee River and skyline as you sip and nosh on the best gluten-free goodies Milwaukee has to offer. This event is meant to be extremely friendly to those with a gluten-intolerance and will feature mostly gluten-free food and drink. Maifest is also kid friendly! Don a flower May-crown and grab a mini May-pole wand and frolic to your heart's desire. While this isn't a pet-friendly event, well behaved pups are welcome in our outdoor space.
No ticket needed, just come on down!

The Drink
Lakefront Brewery beer will be flowing as expected. Not only the title track, Maibock, but we're also excited to celebrate the release of the first ever Gluten-Free Barrel-Aged beer, our Imperial Gose, aged in Tequila barrels! We'll also be pouring a beer from each of the other 4 Riverwest breweries! (Company, Black Husky, Gathering Place, and Amorphic) Show up early to snag a Maifest-branded tasting glass to sample with (while supplies last!). Not only will you find all our gluten-free offerings on tap but we plan to pour from 4 different handmade gluten-free casks from our Brewer, Tyler. Don't like beer? Have no fear, we'll also be serving up specialty coffee from Better Together Cafe, as well as Bloody Mary's, Beermosa's, Root Beer, and canned soda.
