Third Space Brewing

On a recent brewery crawl in Milwaukee, we stopped into Third Space to have a beer and play a game! A private lot outside makes parking pretty easy! The space itself has plenty of seating for various size groups! We grabbed a table near the loading dock, which was away from the louder noises happening around the brewery! Service was excellent! We wanted to play Yahtzee, and there were no score sheets left so the bartender went out of his way to print us out new ones. Top notch!The beer was lovely! Lots to choose from but I particularly liked the Smoked Lager! The rest of the group enjoyed their IPAs, as well! Some snacks (pretzels, popcorn) are available for purchase but no food on the premises.

Probably our favorite taproom in the city! We love Third Space beers, always a bunch of options on tap. Their Ice Bear Fest in January is one of the best Winter events in Milwaukee! So fun!

Tl dr: amazing beer, amazing space and kid and dog friendly!What's a set of parents to do when they have twin soon to be toddlers that (in the most loving way) keep them captive at home by 7ish when they go to bed???? Get your butts as a family to an amazing brewery of course.Enter Third Space - open during the afternoon with great beer, a wide open outdoor space for bags or other fun activities and a relaxed atmosphere. People seem to love to bring their dogs and children, so there's always activity and fun people/pup watching. My husband's favorite is Unite the Clans and I've always loved their Java Blanca but it's only available certain times of year. So, I'll normally get something random that sounds good to me, and it will be!!!! Staff is friendly and kind and the place is always kept clean and accessible. Lots of amazing ramps to keep things accessible for all folks. Will always make Third Space a part of our family's fun beer get-out-of-the-house-for-a-bit rotation.PS years ago I rented the space for my husband's 30th birthday. It was fantastic, the staff was wonderful to work with and it definitely helped with the space as it was a HUGE group of folks.

Good sours, many IPAs, lots of outdoor space, run down industrial neighborhood. Go anyway.

Great outdoor space to enjoy good drinks. I am not big on beer, but being in Milwaukee I obviously had to stop at a brewery. Third space is the first place my friend recommended and today was the perfect day to have a drink outside. The space gives industrial vibes being close to the railway and the bartenders were knowledgeable. Outside is dog friendly and that's always fun. Also there was a cool food truck parked outside! Having a taco truck on Cinco de Mayo was definitely the move. Overall 4/5 stars and I'd return again.

Third Space is an awesome brewery, I personally enjoy their selections and the space is unique. They've expanded their outdoor seating area. It's a family and kid friendly place. They have live music so check their website for shows!I do wish they had some food options BUT they are okay with you having food delivered and have food trucks during the summer!Plenty of parking in the lot or on the street if needed. You can also buy their beer cans to go or at many local stores.

"You have your home, you have your work, but everyone needs a third space".This is the motto of my favorite Milwaukee based brewery! Located in the Menomonee River Valley, they have a revamped, expanded beer garden. That space includes an outdoor bar, lots of seating, a stage and space for yard games, seating and fire pits. During summer they have live music on Thursdays and the Triciclo Peruvian food truck on site (bonus: they do allow carry in food)!But the real show stopper here are the beers. They have a great selection that is sure to please everyone! If you are indecisive like me than go for the Happy Place (flagship brew), a really smooth, balanced hoppy pale ale.Another great option is Unite the Clans: A Scottish ale with slightly roasty and malty flavors. All the IPA's are wonderful, and they also have some fun, interesting seasonal brews. Another cool thing about this place: Every Friday @ 5:45 they do what is called The Brewmaster's Toast: He toasts the crowd, taps the keg and every beer from that keg is $1 until the keg blows. They also do Yoga classes and other events throughout the year. This is a solid spot to hang out year-round, but if its summer in Milwaukee you'd be hard-pressed to find a better spot to grab a beer (or 2), take in the rays and listen to some tunes than at this killer brewery.

So, here's the issue. 2024 Reel Craft Pass book (buy one, get one free), is a fabulous format to introduce you to breweries throughout the state that you would otherwise not know of their existence. This is the only brewery that gave us a limited choice of brews that we could select. So if your preference is for an IPA, you are out of luck. If you've traveled across the state to reach this destination, don't bother. There are plenty of others within a close proximity that will welcome you. I don't need a free beer. That's not why I purchased the book. I just want to be introduced to something I might forever be loyal to and love. They highlighted the "Unbridled Enthusiasm Juicy Double IPA " in the book, so lured us in, but alas, that was not an option. We did not use the book (why get something you're not fond of). The IPA was good. Will not be back.

Another great stop for local beer and chill vibes! Third Space has some of our favorite tap selections in the city! Happy Place is my go-to brew at pretty much any local bar or restaurant. We were lucky to be here on an unusually warm April day, so our pup got to join us outside! Their expanded outdoor space is fantastic, and we can't wait to come back for some outdoor events and live music on the stage. Would be great if dogs were allowed inside the taproom, since they don't seem to have a kitchen, but the fabulous outdoor vibe makes up for that. Don't miss this one!

Cool people. Good beer. Great signs. The beer signs are so fun and creative! They make me want to try all of the different taps. Bri is very talented!
