What do you do with an afternoon in Milwaukee before the game?
You tour the Miller Brewing plant. Free tours, off of State Street (where is Plank Road?).
The gift shop and start of the tour have a good timeline of Miller’s history, which now should be a simple case study in an business history text. There’s a lot more corporate maneuverings that brewing in Miller’s history. One guy on the tour seemed unhappy that Miller is South African-owned.
Gotta run. Maybe a story about the fight at the game later — among the fans, not on the field (Brewers lost).

Back in the day, I toured the Heineken brewery in Amsterdam. Being a right and proper military member, I was “legless” after visiting the samples room. Ahh.. drunk as a skunk before noon, those were the daze.
