Black Huskey Brewing started out in the Northwoods of Wisconsin in the small town of Pembine in a little log cabin. We first heard about this brewery when a good friend would rave about this amazing spruce flavored beer he got near his family cabin a few miles from Pembine. Fast forward a few years and Black Huskey has setup show in Riverwest. In 2016, after a few years driving kegs back and forth from Pembine to Milwaukee, founders Tim & Toni Eichinger opened a new brewery here in Milwaukee.
The claim to fame of Black Huskey Brewing is a very unique ingredient – Spruce Needles. As odd as it sounds the pine aromas and flavors work much in the same way on the pallet as hops do. By doing something no one else was doing in Milwaukee or even further afield, they grew quickly. In 2016 they opened up their doors and is now part of the brewing community here in Milwaukee.
