Drag SHOW Bingo, the Pride Month feature of our monthly Drag Queen Bingo event, is this Tuesday at the Beer Hall! We'll be serving up all the usual Drag Queen Bingo gaiety with more bonus fab drag acts! Your beloved granny emcee and bingo host, Ester Flonaze, kicks the night off a half hour earlier than usual at 6:30pm. We'll be glowing up the show with added drag performances by Iconika Strange, Lyz Dexic, Risk E. Bismuth and Veronica Vaughn! Ester will judge a Rainbow Brite costume contest with the winner receiving a case of Lakefront Brewery beer!

Our kitchen will be serving special Tootie Fruity cheese curds, and you can grab these fun specialty themed drinks at the bar:
🏳️‍🌈The Care Bear (Tequila & OJ)
🏳️‍🌈Lets Have a Kiki (Raspberry & Lemon)
🏳️‍🌈Brat Summer (Melon & Grapefruit)
🏳️‍🌈Gay Awakening (Aperol Spritz)
The night will be free to attend with no cost to play bingo. All seating will first come, first served! And tipping is encouraged for all the queens (and kings)!

Take a trip back to 1989 to an early Riverwest Stein brew day with Lakefront Brewery co-founders Russ and Jim Klisch! The brothers began with very little capital, and banks just laughed at them when they tried to apply for loans. So they took to the scrapyards to create their "Frankenstein" brewhouse. Every kettle you see here lived past lives as foodservice and cosmetic industry vessels. Russ had the engineering knowhow to cobble and weld the pieces together to build a sustainable brewery operation.

Making more moves in our packaging department. Crack open a cold Lakefront and point your next cheers toward Will, who's worked his way up to Lakefront Brewery Packaging Operator! In lieu of carefully pouring beer into every can, crimping lids on top, and carefully inspecting each one by hand, he ensures that machines perform all of those tasks properly at hyper speed. Thanks for keeping our beer safe and fresh, Will. Movin' on up, doing it our way!
