Third Space Brewing occasionally hosts 'pints with a purpose' evenings where you can go, enjoy a pint, and know a portion of the proceeds is helping out a local nonprofit. We attended such an evening where the proceeds from our pints were supporting Islands of Brilliance, a local nonprofit offering creative programs for autistic and other neurodivergent students. Third Space was featuring their peanut butter brilliance, which is an American style porter, for the evening. My beer buddy and I both ordered their peanut butter brilliance and enjoyed it in their tap room/brewery. There's plenty of seating so even on a bustling Friday evening we were able to get our beers right away and find a spot to enjoy them. Love this spot and while it's a little more magical in the summer months when you can enjoy the outdoors, it's a great oasis in the colder months as well. Get to it! read more

This is not a bad space for beer fans I'm sure, but I was here for a private party in their back room area and cannot review the bar. While the space opens up wide, it is not air conditioned and at the height of summer it is hotter than Hades inside. They have fans, but they just push the hot air around. While I was there they had a seafood food truck parked outside, but it was hard to imagine a worse choice for a day where raw seafood would sizzle as soon as it left the window. I can't comment on service, since I didn't interact with any staff. I'm sure in more temperate weather this is a fun hangout, but man - not in summer. read more

This was my first time making it out to Third Spacing Brewing. First thing to know is parking is extremely limited and you'll probably find yourself parking on the street. I wish they had a bigger lot because this place is pretty large if you are sitting outside. I came on a Thursday night at 5 and they had a live band at 7. I got a lavender lemonade ale but I couldn't taste the lavender at all. To me it was just okay as beer goes. They had board games you could play with friends. They didn't really have food but they had a vendor that had a tent outside selling hamburgers and things. Overall it's got a really good patio and I would probably come again on a sunny day and so I can try a different beer. read more

Good service and the atmosphere is laid back. If you don't know what to get the bartenders will let you try a few samples. They want you to have what you like. They have a lot to choose from. The outdoor area is great when the weather permits. Nice spot down on St. Paul in Milwaukee read more

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. read more

Third Space was a nice place but don't book a party there because you won't get what Kara the event manager promised (and she wasn't there for the event)! The setup was in a different area and there were NO 6 foot tables set up when we got there. Pushing 2 small tables together on the other side of the room was not what we paid for! I tried talking to the manager John Wynne a week after the event and all he did was make excuses! I planned the party from out of town and sadly the vision I had was not what was promised! A small token would have been nice but we were not offered anything! According to John, he checked in throughout the party and all was good, too bad he didn't' check in with the person who paid for the room and planned the event. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

"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. read more

What a difference a couple years makes. Not only has Third Space upped the game but they set the bar at an entirely new level. I'm so glad I didn't "give up" on this place. Hoppy Place has been and will always be one of my favorites go to beers and Third Space keeps rolling out the hits with a solid assortment of stouts and IPAs. Then icing on the cake is the revamped outdoor space of the brewery and the amazing IPA Fest they put on with more Wisconsin breweries than you could shake a stick at. We came in VIP style and I'm sure glad we did since we got to go around and sample a good portion of the goods and sit in our own dedicated area that included 5 beers not on tap for anyone else. Third Space is beer heaven. Keep up the good work and keep making the digs as comfortable and chill as they come! read more

Checked out this brewery with some friends, and we were blown away by the creative selection of beers and excellent service. They were legitimately excited to have us sample various offerings so we could decide what to order a full pours of. They mentioned there would be a tour starting in about 20 minutes, so we joined it. Our tour guide McKenna was excellent - informative and funny. It is clear the staff here really care to make you feel welcome and their craft beer speaks for itself. Will definitely come back next time we are in Milwaukee. read more

After receiving a recommendation from our favorite Chicago brewery, we stopped by Third Space Brewery the last two times we've been in Milwaukee. We were not only pleased, but we were blown away! My spouse loves IPAs and he was thrilled at the hop-forward nature of many of the beers. His favorite of the IPA option was the Heavenly Haze. He loved how it was hop forward, while also being juicy and flavorful. He looks forward to continuing to try more varieties in future visits. I've tried a variety of different beers during our visits, but some of my favorites include the Ice Bear (Baltic porter) and Thaison (Thai spice saison). Both are creative and rich in flavors. But my favorite was the Frog Weiss, the raspberry fruited sour. The flavor was bright, crisp, and distinct without being overly sweet. I also look forward to trying many more in the future. The staff are great, health and safety rules are followed enabling employees and customers to both be safe, and space is wide open for spreading out, both inside and outside. Chic, new, and ever expanding, it is a great place to come with a group or for some one-on-one time! There is a food truck on site, but you can also bring food from outside. Win-win! We highly recommend Third Space and we look forward to many more visits in the future. It is definitely the best new brewery in the Milwaukee scene! read more

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! read more

It's been awhile since I've been to Third Space taproom (due to Covid). The brewery has that great industrial look and feel because I imagine it used to be an old warehouse. Typical brewery! It's fun and spacious area which is nice right now. Can definitely spread out. I'm here on a Sunday. The crowd is small at the moment and the weather is beautiful. Always afraid I'm going to miss it but when I see the bright green lines along the brewery side, I remember where I am. I'm a big fan of the seasons and speciality beers they do. If your a tourist or a locals it's definitely worth a stop and City Lights Brewing is tight around the corner. read more

We were visiting from out of town, and Third Space Brewing was near the top of our list of places to check out. Everything from the beer to the food to the atmosphere sounded great online. The reality was completely disappointing. The beer was okay, and might have been good enough to enjoy the place a little, but so-so beer and a really rude, crabby bartender when there are so many other options isn't worth the time or money. ($21 for a flight of four small pours? The brewers seem to think a lot of their creations.) Besides the really unwelcoming attitude when we went to order beer, the food truck employee seemed to be really unhappy with her job/life and took it out on the customers. We ordered two things to share and only received one. After the unpleasant experience so far (who wants that on vacation?), none of us wanted to deal with the surly person at the food truck or get another beer and wait for the missing food to be prepared, so we chose to leave, disappointed in the experience and having paid $20 for food we didn't receive. Not on our list of places to revisit on our return trips to Milwaukee. read more

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. read more

Third Space has the perfect open chill vibe that you're looking for in a brewery! The staff was super helpful to explain what the beers were like compared to the type of beer we usually like.

Third Space Brewing - I'm sure I want the beer in that barrel! - Breweries Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

My husband found a groupon for this brewery and decided to check it out while we were exploring downtown. The venue is pretty cool and they had a lot of tables and lights set up outside. I am not a huge fan of a large variety of beers and I did not see many options on their tasting menu that I was interested in trying that were included in the flight. I was intrigued with trying their Barrel aged options but in the included flight, you had to pay an upcharge for one of these which was the exact cost of a 4 oz sample, so no reason to use it in our flight. One of the main beers on their regular menu (Java Blanca) that I wanted to try when I knew we were coming here was also out- I tried the Acres Edge, White the Clans, Oktoberfest, and Cold Fusion- the beers were fine but I would not order any of them again. We ended up leaving after the tasting since we didn't want to order anything larger than our samples. The actual brewery area is cool and it is nice that they let you bring in your own food as well! I would not recommend this as a must visit if you're just visiting but seems like a popular place for locals & just depends on your specific beer preference. The staff were nice as well! read more

Above average beer in a cool location with a great vibe. Their pretzel was the best I've ever had- perfectly crispy on the outside, pillowy soft on the inside. The Unite the Clans Scottish ale was a standout, as well as the Unbridled Enthusiasm DIPA. read more

Great beers, nice space both inside and outside. Perfect place before a Brewers game.

Third Space has managed to maintain its spot as one of the stand outs amongst what seems to be an ever growing list of Milwaukee breweries. They've managed to appeal to the beer nerds while still maintaining a healthy list of very sessionable beers, so hats off to them! I love that they've upped their game by continuing to offer more special release bottles/ events. Plus, they're in a great location/ space to host some great parties. Great spot for groups, tough spot for quiet conversation. I see that they're starting to branch out and offer a wider variety of events including a running group and I think even yoga?! So I guess basically what I'm saying is Third Space gets a lot of things right- beer list, location, space (including the coveted PATIO). What's not love, really? read more

Would've totally checked in here, had we not lost track of time enjoying the atmosphere and let our phones overheat in the sun!! Beautiful, spacious outside seating usually complimented by some kind of food truck....great if you catch the muchies after a few beers! Plenty of tables inside and out, and the last few times I've visited there has been a group taking advantage of the wonderful inside/outside space with some kind of private party (wedding shower, birthday party, etc). The beer I'm not head over heels for..mainly because I have one of those unusual palates that doesn't appreciate a hoppy beer, but I usually get a Kolsch or Oatmeal Stout(both are good options if you're weird like me) Another few notable things: -Seems to always be a very family friendly place, not sure if this is becoming a new thing but I'm seeing a lot more children and strollers than I'm used to for a brewery. -Parking is plentiful and simple...no worries or stresses about tickets and walking far. -For entertainment play a game of bags outside or sometimes catch a live band setting up...they've definitely got the space for it! read more

This is one of my favorite breweries in Milwaukee! Their service is always so great. They have a good range of beer selection so people with all preferences can enjoy. It has become a weekly tradition to go to their brewmaster toast for one dollar beers until the keg blows. It is always really great to see craft breweries making their beer affordable. They are also a part of deals in the area especially for brewery passes like pub pass, reel pass, and they are on Groupon. I am always the first to tell people to go to third space when they're looking for a brewery to go to in Milwaukee. read more

Love Third Space Brewing. They burst onto the local brewery scene and haven't looked back. They take their beer brewing serious and their involvement in the local community as well. They host a variety of events in their warehouse space, but the best is still just showing up on a weekend to hang out and have some good beer. They do have a space for bean bag toss and a spot where you can have a semi-private party. Last time we were there people had rented it for a surprise birthday party. This is just a personal preference, but wish so many people wouldn't bring small children to breweries. I know Third Space isn't the only place this happens. It's still a "bar" like atmosphere and it feels a little weird to have kids running around. I can't wait to get back here when the weather is better, as they have a bigger outdoor space in which you can relax. They also have had a food truck option parked outside every time I've gone, which only helps us stick around longer! Also love that they are distributing some cans, always excited to find them in stores or walk out with a six-pack or a growler. Their tour is worth doing once, as it is done by one of the owners, and you can tell how deeply invested they are. They look to make it your "third space" after your home and your job. So far, they've succeeded! read more

We love Third Space! Fantastic beer (plus growlers and six packs to go), a welcoming and fun brewery, and a nice (dog-friendly) outdoor patio area.

Try Groupon for a deal on a flight of beer. Our favorite of the newer Milwaukee breweries! read more

I'm a fan of any brewery that has an outdoor patio and Third Space does not disappoint. The location is a bit off the beaten path but you can't miss it with it's side building paint job that points you in the right direction. The brews are solid - right up there with some of more mature craft breweries in the city. They have a full variety of styles and draft/can. I first tried them at a Brewers game in Miller Park which is why I ventured over to the home base to check them out. Indoor space is big and airy and outdoor benches with park games along with food truck delights are there for the enjoyment. It's tucked back away from the street so no distractions from passers by. The outdoor space resides between buildings with some graffiti on the walls so gives it an urban feel with a bit of grit. Like that! No pansies here. All in all, a solid newcomer on the scene - good job getting your IPA in Miller Park - was a great way to introduce me to something special. I'll be back even if the sun isn't shining. read more

Beers are interesting and we probably would have stayed for more than one round but the service left ALOT to be desired. First two people behind the counter didn't reach out when I approached...sat there drinking their beers. Third guy, who was cleaning for Covid around the space, was the one who approached and ask if I was waited on. The other two shrugged and kept drinking their beers behind the counter. That was annoying but the fact that the space only accepts credit cards AND they automatically added a gratuity to the order. All they did was turn to face the tap, pour a beer, and turned back to me....that is worth$2 without my permission? I questioned it and he quickly took it off but was offended when I asked for the receipt. Maybe a bad night, maybe not the right group of bartenders....don't know but there is no strong desire to return. read more

Such a good brewery to go to, just a bit further from the ones downtown but totally worth it. They have great beers and I love that they have a food truck there as well. I'm glad the outdoor area is complete as it provides great summer seating in the patio area. read more

Great atmosphere! When pulling up you wouldn't know anyone is inside or what great warm and cozy space they have inside. The open layout and y'all ceilings make the space huge and accommodating. All staff is super friendly, very knowledgeable and will help you select the perfect beer that you're looking for! I loved my fruity request. The Cranberry Beer selection I tried (thx to the girl who helped me pick it) it was fruity as I asked; but not overdone! The added sour taste toned down the cranberry perfectly! Customer service...WONDERFUL-Great selection made by my recommendation which I was super pleased and happy about; it was just right and exactly what I was looking for when I asked for recommendations. read more

Couple things stand out: - the food truck outside - the picnic tables outside - the lighting outside and inside - the very clean, multi-stalled bathrooms - the variety of beer I did not spend a huge amount of time here, and I cannot comment on the tour as we did not do it, but I'll definitely be checking it out again! read more
