Cozy, baseball-themed taproom located in the Historic Third Ward area of Milwaukee.
The vision of lifelong friends Tim Pauly and Dan McElwee, Broken Bat Brewing Co. provides its patrons with sight lines to the brew house and fermentation tanks, as well as 8 TVs showing daily sporting events. They distribute their beer at baseball stadiums such as Wrigley Field in Chicago.
Hours are: Tue-Thu 4-10pm, Fri 3-11pm, Sat Noon-11pm, Sun Noon-6pm.
12 beers on tap, but only a 7.5 barrel brewing system. They are expanding soon to a larger space with a 20 barrel system.
BEER:
Straight Chedd Apricot Pale Ale -4.25
Hint of apricot makes a plain old pale ale much more interesting; slightly hoppy aftertaste, highly drinkable
Flashin Leather Belgian Blonde -4.25
Sweet and malty character prevails; super smooth
Beach Ball Pineapple Milkshake IPA -3.75
Hazy IPA displaying tart and sweet characteristics; very smooth, big pineapple flavor not at all overwhelming
Ugly Finder NE IPA -4.50
Big, malty, hazy beer; smooth, easy to drink; slight hop bitterness in the finish balances things off
