The Tap Yard at Schlitz Park in Milwaukee will move inside for Nov. 1-Dec. 31.

In addition to warmth and cover, the inside location at 1555 N. Rivercenter Dr. will have a service bar, game room, TVs and more.

It will be open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, plus for all Packers games, 3 until 8 p.m.

Igloo season is also on the way and The Tap Yard is bringing back domes to Fox Brook Park and adding a Menomonee Park location, too, as part of its annual Winter Wonderland embrace of frigid fun.

The six-person domes are available by reservation in 90-minute blocks Thursday-Saturday from 5 until 10 p.m., beginning Nov. 24. You can find all the details on reservations, menu, payment, etc. on the Brookfield location here and the Menomonee Falls location here.

Please note that a Daily Park Entrance Permit or Annual Park Entrance Sticker is required for all vehicles utilizing Fox Brook and Menomonee Parks. Pay within five days of visit to avoid a ticket. Park fee information and FAQs can be found here.

Except for Menomonee Park, which is now closed, the other Tap Yards have hours in October. Visit our Beer Garden Guide for details.
