Milwaukee – Milwaukee County Parks announced the 2020 Traveling Beer Garden schedule today, which means Beer Garden season is around the corner!

The two Traveling Beer Gardens, dubbed ‘Roll Out the Barrel’ and ‘Pass Me a Pint’, bother feature beer fire trucks adapted by Sprecher Brewery that serve Sprecher beers and root beer. The two tours will make a total of 10 stops between May 13 and September 7, and stay at each location for three weeks.

“Spring and summer mean it’s Beer Garden season, a tradition that residents and visitors look forward to each year for the opportunity to experience two of Milwaukee County’s greatest past times – great beer and greater parks,” said Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele. “When you come to our beer gardens you’re not just there for a drink, you’re there for the experience. We are proud to partner with Sprecher to bring families and friends together and celebrate all that Milwaukee County has to offer.”

“Beer Gardens are a staple in Milwaukee County, and this year our offerings are more vibrant and diverse than ever,” said Guy Smith, Director of the Milwaukee County Parks Department. “As well as operating the two Traveling Beer Gardens, our parks staff operate three permanent beer gardens too.”

Over the past five years the Traveling Beer Gardens have generated over $2.5 million in revenue. Profits from the Milwaukee County Parks beer gardens go back to the parks system, helping to fund future parks and trails projects throughout the county. In partnership with Milwaukee County Parks, Sprecher Brewery has donated almost $200,000 for park and trail improvement projects including pavilion renovations, tree plantings and bike rack installations.
