Beer Daddy Bill (@BeerLoversOfWI): From Stouts to Stardom in Milwaukee's Evolving Brew Scene

Experience Milwaukee

In this episode, Adam talks with Bill Robarge who runs @BeerLoversOfWI on Instagram. Here are a few highlights:

• Bill started this Beer Lovers of Wisconsin community about 10-12 years ago because he couldn't find a beer-centric community in Milwaukee at the time.
• Adam and Bill talk about everything from evolving beer preferences to broader trends in the beer industry, noting a shift towards more approachable, lower ABV beers like lagers, and a general downward trend in alcohol consumption.
• The two also highlight the importance of community in the beer scene. Bill emphasizes that for him, beer has always been more about the community than consumption.

It’s a fun listen not just on beer, but on the evolution of Bill’s influencer status in Milwaukee.
