Blatz Brewing News Today

So much has happened over the years at the little saloon on the corner of Wentworth and Russell Avenues in Bay View that its almost impossible not to feel the history the moment you step inside.

A former Blatz Brewing warehouse turned office building at North Market Street and East Highland Avenue in downtown Milwaukee has sold for $4 million.

See what was going on in the Manistee newspaper 100 years ago. 

In 1938, the heir of the Blatz Brewing Company wanted to bring his love of classical music to Milwaukee. Emil Blatz provided $100,000 for the construction of a bandshell that would soon become a temple of music.
