Love the name of the brewery and that's about it. Their root beer was some of the foulest pop I've ever tried. read more

First time at this brewery and I was pretty impressed. They had a variety of house-made tap beers with cute names relative to the wizard theme - which I appreciate. They have non-beer options and THC seltzer options for those who don't drink beer. Lastly the bartender Jess was quick with our order and friendly. She held down the bar as a big group came in and got the line down fast. read more

This is a tiny little microbrewery located downstairs and is a little bit hidden. I found it while searching on Groupon during a recent trip to Milwaukee and saw a flight offer for $6 so I figured I would check it out. When there, the woman working was a little confused about Groupon redemption/how it worked but we were able to sort it out. I got a flight of four beers and opted for a wide selection. I tried the wrath (strong ale), the smoke & mirrors (hazy IPA), the magic jam (sour), and the maven (Maibock lager). Given how small the brewery is I was really impressed with their selection. I thought every beer was excellent but I really liked the smoke & mirrors (although I'm an IPA fan in general). I also loved the magic jam. They also have "butterbeer" which was served in a huge mug - I saw the women next to me order it. Would return! It's a cute place. As always though I wish they had outdoor seating but I understand it given the location. read more

I stumbled across Wizard Works Brewing while just bouncing around downtown one day. Since then I have gone back many times! I love that it is a little hidden down the stairwell and the theme continues inside. Great selection of beers on tap, and the bartenders help with recommendations if you are unsure! read more

Cute lower level space. Nice that they are dog friendly for an all indoor space. Fun themed menu items to fit the Wizard vibes. Harley was served a dish of treats before I even ordered anything to drink The staff onsite thought Harley was a hoot with how chill he was they kept forgetting I even had a dog with me! He was so comfortable in the space he took a full on nap. read more

This was one of our favorite breweries we visiting while in Milwaukee! Not only did they have a great selection of different types of beer, this was also a cool theme and GREAT service!

Everyone close to me knows I don't drink alcohol. However, I was with a group of friends that do and we were in Milwaukee killing time. Very cool place in a basement that is hard to find but is a Treasure, apparently, when you do. Well, they brew root beer! I was so happy I had three mugs of this stuff. It wasn't too sweet and very unique. All of my party enjoyed all their beers. All of them had beer flight samplers. Also, the Brewer is a magician, and he might share some cool things with you . Definitely give this place a visit you won't be disappointed whether you drink alcohol or you don't. read more

Wizard Works Brewing - Home made root beer for us that can't drink alcohol. - Brewpubs Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

This may not be the easiest brewery to find between parking and then crawling down into the basement, but it's worth it! They have very friendly staff, super casual open space, and some pretty interesting beers on tap right now - enough to get a good full flight. Our favorite was the Puck Fumpkin which is a caramel apple sour that absolutely is nostalgic of those caramel apple suckers. We also got the Magic Jam which is a wild strawberry and rhubarb sour which was a good balance of fruity and sour in my opinion. You don't see a lot of Irish Red Ales so we of course had to get the Secret Handshake. Finally, we rounded out our flight of four with the Hellstrom Oktoberfest marzen which to be honest was the worst of the bunch. Had we not been in a rush, I would have stayed longer, but we'll have to come back sometime to try their NA root beer butterbeer! read more

Liked this bar in the basement. Very cute space but it can fill up quick. Love the vault door and open brewing concept so you can see the tanks. The beer was okay but maybe I just didn't try the right one. They don't have food but more like bags of chips. You order up at the bar rather than get served at the table. The team seemed nice and was fairly quick with our drink order. The prices were reasonable but parking in the area is tough. Would be open to coming back but not in a rush. read more

Cute place, loved the glass so much I bought one for like $6. There's neat magic memorabilia around to check out. They have a trivia night and you can play Mario kart while you're there. Lots of entertainment and things to look at in a small place but it adds more to the magic of it. Solid beer selection also! The lady beer tender was knowledgeable on her beers and we love that! Thanks for quenching our groups thirst. Cheers! read more

This small taproom and brewery is a great addition to the third ward. They offer rotating taps and the space is unique and chill. No food offered currently. You can reserve the space for private parties and the bartenders are friendly and attentive. The owner was a magician so that's the theme of the place, kinda neat! Don't forget to check out the magic themed corner near the bar! If you checkin on Yelp you get a free beer (valid at the time of this review). read more

We went on a brewery tour covering four states! This was one of my favorite breweries. To be fair Milwaukee is one of my favorite places, so I'm very partial. I also love most anything supernatural, so I was excited to come here. The brewery is located down stairs. There is an event hall upstairs. The theme is obviously witchcraft, but also gaming. I loved the atmosphere. I was really hoping I would also love the beer! I was so happy that I did!! We both loved and enjoyed our time chatting with the bartender and other patrons. We had an amazing time, and I can't wait to go back again!! read more

FANTASTIC! Ok, I'll admit, I'm a little bias here. I know Chris and Jenny as I've worked with both at the Bristol Renaissance Faire. BUT, in saying so...I have been overjoyed with their products! Their brews are AMAZING! I prefer more grain forward than hops, and my adult son prefers the hops forward IPAs and similar...there's always something for EVERY taste! Their seasonal brews are always such a DELIGHT! We, my son and I, try to get over there at least once per season and it's always worth the trip! Available flights, tasting menu as well as variable sizes and even a Take-home. collectable Growler that you can bring back to refill! Chef's Kiss! The atmosphere is a tiny niche brewery with all their tanks visible but glassed off from the tavern, so you can see in and see what's brewing, but doesn't allow for contamination. The staff is always super friendly, knowledgeable, and have great senses of humor. I'd expect nothing less from Chris and Jenny...and the never cease to exceed expectations! I recommend Wizard Works Brewing to friends all the time! read more

Wizard works is in the old Broken Bat, a basement off Buffalo and Water in third ward. Somewhat smaller brewery where the seating gets close to the brewery equipment. Harry Potter was playing - somewhere between ironic and punny. I, a beer snob, didn't like either of the two beers I purchased. The Swiss Mystic was more of a winter spice stout than hot chocolate and Abracadabra was not very hoppy for an ipa. read more

Adorable little brewery-able to bring in snacks for my 3 year old. They had root beer with whipped cream on top which she loved too!

It is always a great experience to stop in at Wizard Works Brewing. The brews are outstanding. With so many choices for microbreweries in this area, this one has great central Third Ward location and a very nice magical chill vibe. Why magical? The owner is also a magician and a great one. The ambiance is great and the tables are aesthetically laid out. I also became a part of the mug club. This time I had the Swiss Mystic which was beyond delicious. I also have a disdain for IPAs but after tasting the Abracadabra I decided to have a pint of that as well. If you have friends who don't drink alcohol or you are not in the mood for alcohol, the root beer is delicious, along with the fancier rootbeer serving of "I can't believe it's not butterbeer". read more

WIZARDS! I loved the personality and artistic concept of this brewery. The beers are named magically with fun references to magic, sorcery, mythology, and fantasy. The beer queen was friendly, pouring out beers of which there were just over a dozen choices or so...tasty! October Sunday afternoons are quiet, few folks, and chill...the ambience was lacking a bit, being in the bottom floor of a building, a smallish space for a brewery, but that's how most breweries start. Located downtown, it's worth checking out if you're strolling and wandering. read more

My husband and I stumbled in after reading a sign in the Third Ward. We love local breweries, and Wizard Works Brewing was no exception. We met the owners Chris and Jenny. They were incredibly helpful and personable. We also witnessed a special magic trick courtesy of Chris, a real life magician! My husband ordered 2 small pours, and I was able to sample them--they were delicious! The location is ideal--you have plenty of food, coffee and leisure nearby--why not stop in for some of the best beer? We will definitely be making more stops here in the future, and we look forward to bringing family in with us. Awesome service, awesome location and awesome beer. What's not to love? read more

Space was nice, beer was just okay. It was 9pm on a Friday and they were clearly getting ready to close. My hazy IPA was more West Coast than hazy. I didn't love it. I was excited to visit based on the reviews, and it was absolutely not bad, just only okay. read more

This is a fun brewery that took over the old broken bat brewery space. So it's a bit tucked away but worth a venture! The beer is tasty and the owner is super friendly and a magician. Which explains the brewery theme. I was happy to find them open in a Wednesday. It's located in the third ward area but it is also close to Broken Bat and Indeed Brewing so you could make a nice little beer drinking trip. read more

All the Wizard Works signs point to making a beer disappear and with such flavorful brews, that pint can disappear in due time as you sip and enjoy. It was cool to sit outside for some fresh air while enjoying a couple of their brews. Cool little brewery. read more

We stopped in here while walking around the Third ward area. It's got a cozy, casual vibe and is extremely dog friendly! The staff and patrons alike were all friendly too. The service was good! The beer was lighter in ABV and flavor too, and just not totally our thing. The best one I tried was their Puck Fumpkin beer- a sour apple beer with a really strong caramel hit on the end. I would give it another try if in the area, but sadly it was not our favorite beer experience in milwaukee. read more

It was my second time to WWB. It's a cool little space, located downstairs in the Third Ward. The beer is delicious and it was a nice spot to stop with some family and enjoy some conversation and a brewery ambiance. Service was friendly, but again, the beer is delicious. If you are looking for name brand beers you should move along, but if you are looking for small craft beers - give it a shot - I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

This place was a hole in the wall we stumbled upon to grab some beers. They had TV's and a handful of tables. A seasonal beer they had was a pumpkin apple thing and it was so good. Highly recommend trying one before they are out of season! Our bartender was nice, but when I said I had a coupon for checking in on Yelp he looked at me like I had 16 heads and I just didn't end up using the coupon. read more

I visited WizardWorks brewery today, 5/21/22. I visit craft breweries as a hobby, and to allow my wife some peace and quiet. WizardWorks brewing was the last on my list for craft breweries in Milwaukee. This was my second attempt to visit this establishment as the parking in its third ward location is awful. I drove around the block several times before finding someone who was leaving that I could take their spot right around the corner. The brewery itself is downstairs when you enter the building. It is a relatively small taproom but still accommodating for a fair amount of patrons and dogs. There were a fair amount of dogs when I was present, something common to most breweries. My bartender Was quick and efficient and getting my flight prepared. I had four beers including a very good Hefeweizen and a Mexican spice stout. I was given a free brewery sticker when I asked. Guest Wi-Fi was easily accessible with password and remained solid for the duration of my visit. Although the parking is bad I would recommend a visit as it seemed like a quaint brewery with loyal patronage. read more
