Milwaukee—February 2, 2016— Created more than 8,000 years ago, banned during Prohibition and celebrated throughout the world, beer has a long, illustrious history as the center piece of many a shindig. With this in mind, the Milwaukee Public Museum will throw open its doors after hours once again and invite you to be a part of that story – and to savor many varieties of brews – at the Milwaukee Public Museum’s 18th Annual Food & Froth Fest from 7 – 10 p.m. on Saturday, February 20.
Presented by Screamin’ Sicilian Pizza Co., Food & Froth will feature over 200 different beers from more than 70 breweries, including Midwest treasures such asSummit Brewing Co. — making its Food & Froth debut — and international favorites like Germany’s Krombacher Brauerei. Nibble on tasty bites from our presenting sponsor, Screamin’ Sicilian frozen pizza, sampling an overtopped and fully loaded pizza perfect for pairing with beer, Old Tavern Food Product’s cheesy, 100% Wisconsin goodness, McBob’s Pub & Grill’s famous mini-reubens as well as many other treats from local restaurants and caterers. Throw in live music on all three exhibit floors, including a performance by The Whiskey Belles, and you have a night that will make history!
