It was Feb. 10, 2016 when Drink Wisconsinbly Pub first opened its doors to the public at 135 E. National Ave. in Walker’s Point. Just over a year later, it was voted Milwaukee’s Best New Bar.
So it only makes sense that the pub would celebrate with a best new bar birthday bash.
The festivities – which will include gifts, cake and food and drink – begin at 3 p.m. on Saturday, March 11. During the party, guests will be treated to birthday cake (while it lasts) along with $5 SoulBoxer old fashioneds all night long.
The first 50 customers to purchase a drink will receive also a Drink Wisconsinbly T-shirt and pint glass.
Even better, during the festivities, the winner of the SoulBoxer Booze Bubbler contest will be presented with the bubbler.
