A trip to Milwaukee should center around the standard beer, brats and cheese curds. But it should also include a bit of class. Brew City is the Midwest’s classiest metropolis, and if you don’t believe me, book yourself into one of these properties. These are the best luxurious Milwaukee Airbnbs for groups, family getaways, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and work retreats.

Host your group at The Brewer’s Hill Inn and Gallery

Taking a brew tour from the house is a cinch whether you organize it yourself or embark on a guided experience. But with so much on offer at the homestead, your crew will have just as much fun cracking open a case of PBR and lounging at the pad.
