Lakefront Brewery Hosting a Record-breaking Tap Takeover at the Drunk Uncle on April 2nd and 3rd
The West Allis event, dubbed Lakefrontmania II, features 36 Lakefront Brewery beers.
WEST ALLIS (March 21) – Neal Steffek, the owner of the Drunk Uncle bar in West Allis, is no stranger to shaking up the bar scene in Milwaukee. Whether it’s offering 50-cent tap beers during the Wisconsin State Fair or a $1 IPA tap special every Saturday, Steffek always aims to go big.
He will be going big again on April 2nd and 3rd when he breaks his own record of hosting Lakefront Brewery’s largest tap takeover to date.
Lakefront’s Brand Activation and Special Events Manager, Mitch DeSantis has been calling on the bar for years. “Neal is wild and I love him for that. In a daring tone he once stated that if Lakefront Brewery had 48 different beer options, he would put them on tap for a big event… I took that as a personal challenge,” says DeSantis.
Though Lakefront Brewery is falling short of 48 brands, they will bring a healthy lineup of 36 offerings. Everyday favorites will be available in addition to a selection of special reserve products from the Brewery’s cellar.
Patrons of the Drunk Uncle are well-aware of the bar’s affinity to professional wrestling. Steffek and DeSantis decided it would be best to coincide this event with professional wrestling’s biggest weekend of the year, “WrestleMania.”
“Wrestling is real and pro wrestling is the last real sport in America,” quips Steffek.
