Lakefront Brewery Fried Up Big Numbers For National Cheese Curd Day

MILWAUKEE (October 16th, 2025) – On Wednesday, October 15th, from 2pm to 9pm, Lakefront Brewery welcomed hundreds of cheese curd fanatics looking to commemorate the big day. Tying in their Curd of the Month specialty flavor offerings, 3 different specialty curds made their debut: Chicken N’ Waffle, French Onion, and Caramel Apple Cheesecake. With each flavor going head-to-head, Chicken N’ Waffle inched out French Onion by 7 orders with a total of 133 baskets. Due to their shared popularity, Lakefront is excited to announce that both flavors will be included in their 2026 Curd of the Month calendar! If you couldn’t make it down to their Beer Hall, look for those two flavors in 2026. All 12 Curd of the Month flavors for 2026 will be announced soon.

National Cheese Curd Day also served as the launch of Lakefront’s new Curd Card. Get 11 orders of their delicious fried cheese curds and get the 12th one for free. Become a Curd Card-Carrying Member the next time you need your cheese curd fix at the Beer Hall.

As promised, the Cheese Curd Pull Competition was fierce. Several times throughout the day, up to 10 teams of 2 lined up and attempted to pull apart a fluffy curd to the longest length they could. Team Curd Pullers set the record with a monstrous 4-foot pull. The time to start practicing for next year is now. Winners of each competition took home two $15 gift cards to Lakefront Brewery.

After their Beer Hall kitchen cranked out over 1 order of curds per minute totaling roughly 235 pounds of fried cheese curds for the day, Lakefront Brewery wants to thank the community for showing up and showing out for National Cheese Curd Day. Wisconsinites across the state would be proud.
