It's no secret that the Milwaukee area is well known for its delicious beer and breweries. The same definitely applies to areas outside the city, in the suburbs. So if you're looking for a place to find a new favorite, you have many amazing local breweries to choose from. Start your sampling tour with the following breweries near Milwaukee.

Raised Grain Brewing Company

Around Waukesha, Raised Grain Brewing is the spot to hang out. No matter what group of friends you stop in with, there is a tasty brew for everyone. There is a large taproom with an outside patio area for when the weather's nice. Inside, keep up with the score on one of the many TVs. 

Among the cool features the brewery offers is ordering from your outside table via your smartphone. It's a great way to keep up with your conversation while not having to worry about long lines at the bar. For gluten-removed drink options, try the Diamond Hard Seltzer. It's made with a special filtration process to remove the gluten. For beer, get the refreshing Mello Rillo. It's a session hazy India Pale Ale sure to keep the vibe chill.

Perspective Brewing Co.

A recent addition to the brewery scene in West Allis is Perspective Brewing Co. Two brothers who were high school science teachers realized their dream and started their own brewery. The taproom is cozy and cool, perfect for smaller groups. 

The brewery is building out its tap list with a handful of great options. Go for the Travel Fee. It's a crisp Hefeweizen with notes of banana and cloves. 

Biloba Brewing Company

Another local fav is Biloba Brewing Company in Brookfield. It's family-owned and operated, and has a laid-back vibe. You can bring everyone here, even your pup will love the outside patio. The tap list rotates, so you just might find something different every time. And when you just want a quick drink or to try a couple different styles, the brewery offers half-pints as well.

For a lower calorie treat, order What The Helles. It's a lager made using a special technique that results in fewer calories, less bitterness, but all the yum.
