87 miles north of Chicago up Interstate 94 is the City and County of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The largest city in Wisconsin, Milwaukee has its own distinct personality and character. Chicago as Carl Sandberg wrote may be the city of broad shoulders, hog butcher to the world, but Milwaukee is a big, brawny, muscular town in its own right. Historically, Milwaukee has been a beer town, and many breweries large and small have flourished there. While Schlitz may be "The Beer that Made Milwaukee Famous," Milwaukee is the city of origin for many other legendary names in the brewing industry including Pabst, Schlitz, and Blatz. Today, the city is about much more than beer. Milwaukee is home to a major league baseball team, the Milwaukee Brewers, as well as to the headquarters of several Fortune 500 companies. Harley Davidson, AO Smith, Briggs and Stratton, Miller Brewing, Johnson Controls, Kohl's Department Stores, and Marshall and Isley Bank are just a few of the leading American corporations that call Milwaukee home. Visitors to Milwaukee will find much to see and do outside the office or the factory, too. Catch a baseball game, tour a brewery, browse the Art Museum, check out the Milwaukee County Zoo, take in some of the great views of Lake Michigan, or enjoy dinner at one of the city's many fine restaurants. Milwaukee has been a "happening town" since long before television's "Laverne and Shirley" brought the city into everyone's living room.
