Suds Club meets EVERY Wednesday 7pm.
Milwaukee's only weekly beer tasting club!


The Suds Club with Milwaukee's own 'Whispering Jeff' and Gwenn aka 'BTG' is a weekly beer tasting with 500+ members. Each week we sample an average of 8 beers. $7 one time to join, and $10* weekly. Includes samples of the weekly beers, a full glass/bottle of the featured beer, membership card, and a tracking sheet to record your sampled beers. Listen as Whispering Jeff imparts 62 years of brewing history & knowledge, always interesting and entertaining! And see what fun themed outfit Gwenn will be sporting! Wednesday nights at The Bomb Shelter have quickly become a Walkers Point weekly event and fills up fast, so arrive early to secure a seat at the bar or one of our tables.
(*Premium tastings may be more than $10.)
