The brewery houses a seven-barrel brewing system which will produce beer for distribution in Wisconsin, as well as for use at the brewery and restaurant. Artwork on the walls includes pieces from artists Rob Jones and Zeb Love, both of whom have created artwork featured on labels of Like Minds brew, as well as posters for prominent musicians like the White Stripes and Willie Nelson. Cream City brick walls sit adjacent to clean wooden tables and dark metal chairs and stools. The space is bright and sparse with a clean, modern look. And based on a first look, it will be a brewery and restaurant worthy of its James Beard Award-winning owner. But as is the case with many food and beverage venues, construction and licensure took a few months longer than expected.īut now, Like Minds is up and running. That news broke in April, offering hope that Like Minds would open this summer.

Hamilton St.Īnd while brewery openings have become commonplace over the past few months in Milwaukee, this one met with particular challenges. Initially, setbacks were caused by Wisconsin's "tied house law," which prevents individuals who already possess a bar, restaurant or retail liquor license from obtaining a permit for a brewery. Like Minds – the brewery, taproom and restaurant from owners Justin Aprahamian, chef and owner of Sanford, and John Lavelle – opened its doors to the public at 823 E. Yesterday marked a milestone in Milwaukee. All month, we're stuffed with restaurant reviews, dining guides, delectable features, chef profiles and unique articles on everything food, as well as voting for your "Best of Dining 2016." Come kick back and have a beer here, you'll be a fan after the first sip.For the 10th straight year, October is Dining Month on OnMilwaukee, presented by the restaurants of Potawatomi Hotel & Casino. Can definitely bring kids here too because they have every video game console, board games for all to play and share. Can always get food delivered, sometimes live music or dj on the weekends. They do serve food from a third party that comes in if you're hungry. A little more hoppy, great hazy look to it. I on the other hand find myself drinking tons of their "Visual Chaos" pints. Phenomenal beer for anyone who needs an easy going refreshing brew. Great dude, always happy to serve and easy to chat with, dudes knowledgeable about his beers and seems to know a lot of whats going on in the industry.Īs of late I do know Devours most popular beer "Toucan Slam" is being distributed across all of Florida.

You got this great beer bartender with the full beard action, I think his name is Matt. The owner Chip is always working on his craftsmanship in the back if not mingling with his guests. I enjoy coming here cause it's almost feels like a "Cheers" esque feel for a craft brewery.

A totally awesome neighborhood vibe going off here.

I been coming here for quite some time now, probably five years now and counting.
