    Pretzel - A large, twisted pretzel with a glossy, salted surface is placed on a wooden serving board. It is accompanied by two small containers of dipping sauces: one with cheese and the other with mustard. A butter knife rests on top of the pretzel. The setting appears to be in a restaurant or pub, with a dark wooden table surface visible.

    We had such a nice time here! The staff was so friendly and kind. Tried some of their brews and even the soda floats, yum! The pretzel was perfect after a half marathon! Would definitely come back if ever in the area again.

    A clear glass of Sprecher beer with a foamy head is positioned on a dark wooden table. The glass displays the Sprecher logo, which includes a black lion and red text. The background shows a restaurant interior with wooden paneling and blurred patrons, along with menus on the table.

    My friend and I visited the tasting room for a trivia event recently.The guys working the order counter were marginally helpful, at best. They didn't explain much about the beers on offer, pointing us to the lists at the table instead. They didn't offer any details about the event, just telling us "she" would be around.They didn't make an suggestions about the beers. So... meh. The beer I had was fine. The giant pretzel we ordered was actually pretty good. The sound system for the music trivia was pretty crummy actually. It made it hard to hear and frustrating to play. Then at the end, at 8pm, we felt shoved out the door. The most efficient thing all night was the bussing of the tables. So unfortunately I have no real desire to go back for a tour or a second visit.

    Every flavor in the book and a pretzel

    A fun place to visit in the Milwaukee area. We took family and the tour was great. A must for locals and visitors alike. We also stayed to eat, drink, and play. We enjoyed hanging out in the back room, which is in the corner and hard to see. A great place to get souvenirs, too. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Tip: Get there early because the tours sell out.

    I used to live 5 miles north of here. Now I'm further away by 2 more miles. No tours for me. I've seen a lifetime supply and I just came here to get extracts to make some of the world famous Root beer and cherry colas . I've always had good interactions with Randy and all the other reps while at the beer tastings and beer garden pop ups. I've been a fan of Black Bavarian for many years and looking forward to making flavored deserts and ice creams and sodas with the extracts. Since I'm still healing from gastritis. I'm cautious about beer drinking. I gave it up half of September and the month of October. Having gastritis is awful. Imagine 3 hours of terrible pain I'm thinking I'm going to die. And never have experienced this before. You think. Is this what death is like? I'm thinking it's the same. Stomach cancer did cross my mind many times while suffering. Then I realize I'm not dead and I'm not in pain in the morning. Did I die? And the pain is all gone? And it could be a perforated gastric ulcer. But no fever. And the pain goes away. Like magic. Lucky for me it's just acid reflux style pain and it's responding to antacids and now I'm on Prilosec pretty much pain free and cautiously eating blandly. I'm making my own drinks with less carbonation. Since dissolved CO2 can increase acidity. Causing me dreadful excruciating belly aches. I'm learning how to eat bland beans rice chicken fish eggs and slowly working back to spicy foods. I can now tolerate sharp cheddar with chipotle pepper. Baby steps I'm on the path to healing. 20/2024 Food 4/5 easy bar snacks available in store cheese, chips along with big sized pretzel to share. Ambiance 5/5 clean tasting room not as loud as the brewery because of the glass windows. Plus a monitor for watching the cameras and tvs for the games. Service 5/5 friendly quick service. Location 5/5 easy parking west of the building area nearby streets when packed. Value 5/5 large gift shop and plenty of beer and soda selections along with glassware and clothing. Ps I was told Randy occasionally pops in and the new owners have managed to increase visibility and distribution across the nation. Good job.

    Root beer - A person is holding a bottle of Sprecher Maple Root Beer, a fire-brewed craft soda, in front of the entrance to Sprecher Brewing. The background shows a sign with the brewery's name and warm, ambient lighting inside the brewery. The focus is on the bottle, with the brewery's interior slightly out of focus.

    Highly recommend their root beer! We unfortunately couldn't get spots for the tour, but the beer garden is still a fun place to hang out.

    Nice staff and decent space for private events. Stopped here for a work function though we have visited a time or two before. We were in the rathskeller section and they had some cool older bottles/memorabilia from over the years on the walls. Cool barrel tables, too. We had snacks of veggie trays, assorted cheese and meats, and bruschetta. Also, we were able to grab all the soda and beer we wanted from the bar. I tried the amber and the hefeweizen. Both good but not the best I've had. Sprecher has always been a consistent brewery though - most everything you try will be at least good. Love the gift shop, too. Grabbed a few cans of their abbey triple to go. $1.50/can. Can't beat that!

    Sprecher has something for everyone. They make their own soda, beer, seltzer plus food onsite. Huge area to enjoy drinks and food with clear signage for ordering food and drink at bar. They have a large gift shop that you enter through. Tour is fun and interactive, hairnets required. Plenty of parking. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area.

    Date of visit: August 1, 2024 I had an employee visiting from out of state and wanted to do something fun for my team so I booked tickets at the 5 p.m. Sprecher tour. The checkout process for the tour online was very easy and I received both text and email reminders. The check in process was painless and everyone on my team loved the souvenir glass; the coaster to save your table setting was a nice touch as well. Shawn did a great job with the tour though I do think that they would greatly benefit with a little speaker or microphone, especially with the ambient noise from the facility as well as the tasting room. This is a great way to spend an hour or so and having the appetizer options available as well is a great bonus, even if we didn't end up using it.

    As I drove in, I caught myself sniffing the air as I thought there was a whiff of sweetness in the air. Maybe it was my imagination...? I was there for the tour, which was $13 for adults and came with a souvenir glass, unlimited soda tastings, and four beer pours. I don't really drink, so there's an option to donate the tickets for a charitable organization (the beers aren't donated themselves, but some percentage from sales is based on the number of tickets). There's three parts to the tour. The first is to go over the history of the brewery, the second is in a part of the factory where they brew the beer and make the soda. The third is their bottling line. Overall, the tour took about an hour, although it was also in part because we were a large group with a lot of questions. After the tour, there's a snack and beverage room with the hard and soft drinks. While I didn't get any food, I had a lot of soda and one beer. The soda was actually surprising as it comes out of the tap less carbonated-it turns out that the bottles and cans are over carbonated as they lose their bubbles during transport and with time so they want to ensure that the drink isn't flat by the time it gets to the customer. There's also a shop where you can buy drinks and other merchandise. Don't skip it!

    We visited Sprecher's about 12 years ago when the tasting room was very low key and the only food they had was store bought pretzels and it was fun, but they've really upped their game since then. The tasting room is huge and there are some great food options. The pretzels have gotten huge and looked super tasty. Our kids and the adults loved trying all the sodas and lemonades. The adults enjoyed the various beers and ciders. Lauren was our tour guide for the 45 min tour and did a fantastic job showing us the inner workings of the brewery while educating us and keeping us entertained. Since it was a Sunday we got to see the bottling room as well since there was no production happening that day. At $7 for kids and $12 for adults (with 4 beer samples) Sprecher's is a fun way to spend a few hours. They have lots of games to keep everyone entertained and lots of tvs with different sports games on. Of course they have a large gift shop so you can take some of that Sprecher's magic home with you.

    Delicious glass of Sprecher's Cream Soda

    I love going to Sprecher's Brewing Company. I am a huge fan of the craft sodas that Sprecher's known for. My favorite craft sodas are Cream Soda, Root Beer, Cherry Cola, Orange Dream & Puma Cola. Can't wait to go back again in the future.

    Did the tour with the OG Christian. Now enjoying the tap room!
    Bill S.

    Great tour from the OG Christian. He was VERy knowledgeable and funny as heck on the tour..his 7th grade students are lucky to have him as a teacher Was amazed at how much the place brews and bottles. The tap room was great being able to sample many of the beers and sodas...I'm not big on hoppy beers and they replaced the pour with something else without any questions saying g "we want you to enjoy". I've been to other breweries where they would have charged for the replacement pour. This place is a MUST do if you are in the area!

    Giant pretzel.

    Our nine year old granddaughter is visiting from San Diego and this was on her list of things she wanted to do. We enjoyed the tour, it was very informative. Our guide was great. The staff was amazing, answering questions and filling our soda and beer glasses. I enjoyed the pale ale. Our granddaughter liked the root beer and loved the watermelon soda. She also loved the giant pretzel. The taproom was very spacious, there were games to play while we enjoyed our food and drinks.

It's a touch of tranquil in the busy surrounding Downtown. I loved looking at all of the different fauna and flowers. I only wish they had the signs saying what type of plant it was. There are a series of paths, a few fountains, and some nice areas where you can relax. They rent out the gardens for parties and weddings. There was a separate carriage house that has bathrooms and facilities to get dressed for events. I am sorry I didn't know about this place sooner. It's really beautiful!

My beer buddy and I both ordered their peanut butter brilliance and enjoyed it in their tap room/brewery.

I can't comment on service, since I didn't interact with any staff. I'm sure in more temperate weather this is a fun hangout, but man - not in summer.
