The Scene – A huge interior is divided into two spacious floors accented with low lighting and exposed brick. The downstairs holds a restaurant and stage with plenty of seating for dinner crowds and live-music audiences. – – The Draw – Brewmaster Jim Olen ensures that Sheepshead Stout, Pull Chain Ale, Louie's Demise and the other beers produced at Milwaukee Ale House keep the good times rolling until closing time.

Don't go there for a large party

by Ski Lee at Citysearch

Pre-arranged a party of 15 people 2-3 weeks in advance starting at 5:30 p.m. We were told by the male server "we are behind schedule for ordering, I have a bigger party coming and I need this space for them".We were told this twice throughout our meal. We were not offered dessert or coffee. We were compensated with 3 free pitchers of beer and a 50 dollar gift cert. after my friend complained to the manager. However it did not make up for the extremely rude service and poor planning from the manager with double booking. I feel we were cheated out of a celebration and great conversation with friends due to an organization with limited intelligence

  • Pros: micro-brew beer
  • Cons: loud and smokie with the band

Great beer!

by tgkortuem at Citysearch

My husband and I meet here for a beer whenever possible. They make their own and anyone who goes here and wastes their time ordering a domestic is an idiot. Their beer is awesome, try a sampler if its your first time. The food isn't bad, but the beer is definately the strong spot.

  • Pros: Microbrew, nightlife
  • Cons: average food
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Good food & Great beer at Milwaukee's Ale House

by WebMedia at Citysearch

Its cool, because it's a community staple. The owners have done a great job and it is always a solid place. I'm a huge fan. It' s great for lunch or for meeting groups out. Check it out in Milwaukee and their new junior resturant out in Grafton - very different type restaurants, same great beer.

  • Pros: location, local stapele, great beer.
  • Cons: Would like more veggie options
