Lakefront Brewery Hosts Inaugural Gluten-free Friendly Maifest

MILWAUKEE (May 10th, 2022) – From the brewery that produced the world’s first certified gluten-free beer (New Grist), Lakefront Brewery announces Maifest! Join them on Sunday, May 15^th from 11am to 3pm as they embrace the warm weather with an outdoor celebration featuring a variety of vendors dishing out food, beverages, art, crafts, and other local flair. Take in views of the Milwaukee River and skyline as you sip and nosh on the best gluten-free goodies Milwaukee has to offer. This event is meant to be extremely friendly to those with a gluten-intolerance and will feature mostly gluten-free food and drink. Maifest is also kid friendly! Don a flower May-crown and grab a mini May-pole wand and frolic to your heart’s desire. While this isn’t a pet-friendly event, well behaved pups are welcome to their outdoor space. No ticket needed, just head on down!

Maifest will feature 6 food trucks serving exclusively gluten-free food including Lakefront Brewery’s CurdWagon. Joining them will be Tots on the Street, Pedro’s South American Food Truck, Clean Cruisine, Trouble Makers Cocina, and Riley’s Good Dogs.

As expected, Lakefront Brewery’s beer will be flowing. Not only their Maibock, but they’re also excited to celebrate the release of the world’s first ever gluten-free barrel-aged beer, their Imperial Margarita Style Ale aged in Tequila barrels! They’ll also be pouring a beer from each of the other 4 Riverwest neighborhood breweries (Company, Black Husky, Gathering Place, and Amorphic). Show up early to snag a Maifest-branded tasting glass to sample with (while supplies last). Not only will you find all their gluten-free offerings on tap but they’ll be pouring from 4 different handmade gluten-free casks. Don’t like beer? They’ll also be serving up specialty coffee from Better Together Cafe, as well as Bloody Mary’s, Beermosa’s, Root Beer, and canned soda.

Musical entertainment from Pete Freeman of Ladybird at 11AM and From Sinatra to the 60’s at 1PM. Word on the street is there may be a surprise musical guest…
