Jackson's Blue Ribbon Pub opens today at The Brewhouse Inn & Suites, 1215 N. 10th St.

Jackson's BRP has 13 beers on tap, mostly local along with a wide variety of bottled beers from around the globe. Additionally, Jackson's BRP has all types of liquors and will be featuring drinks of the day.

The restaurant also features a large outdoor beer garden which will be open during regular hours and will serve the restaurant's menu along with beverages.

On Friday evenings starting mid-June, the beer garden will host live acoustical music in the evenings, weather permitting.

The bar and restaurant, located on the first floor of The Brewhouse, features 24-foot ceilings inlayed with patterned tin designed to replicate the original. Original structural elements were also incorporated into the overall scheme.

@olderwiser - There is. J&B;'s Blue Ribbon Bar & Grill. Jackson's would be your hipster equivalent to Blue Ribbon; pricey food, pricey beers. J&B;'s is more true to the brand/idea; quality food and beers, affordably priced.

Isnt't there a Blue Ribbon Pub in the former location of Long Wongs, around 51st and Bluemound? Seems like there are several BRPs around town now.

Portugal. The Man

Published Saturday, June 22

Portugal. The Man has always been a difficult band to classify, as its influences are vast and identifiable, but it proved Friday that it has found a unique voice of its own that is worth more than the sum of its parts.

Catching up with Wake Owl

Published Thursday, June 13

When Colyn Cameron and his band Wake Owl made their Milwaukee debut at the Cactus Club back in February, the debut EP, "Wild Country," had just been released. Now, the band is back for a $10 show in The Pabst Pub and we caught up with Cameron to see how things have changed for the band.

Miller Caves

Published Wednesday, June 5

The Miller Caves, which are a featured part of the Miller Brewery tours, were excavated in 1850, making them nearly as old as the city itself. This cool, historic subterranean space is alive again with beer dinners and, now, as a concert venue.

Bloc Party

Published Thursday, May 30

At the end of a 2007 performance, Bloc Party vowed that it would return to Milwaukee. On Wednesday night at The Pabst, the British band delivered on that promise but also came off a little too rehearsed at times.

Ben Smith's homage

Published Thursday, May 23

More melodious love for the Bronze Fonz has arrived from afar. Yesterday, West Chester, Pa.-based singer and songwriter Ben Smith wrote to share one of his tunes with us. It`s one that pays homage to the Bronze Fonz, says Smith.

Pabst Pavilion

Published Monday, May 20

Thanks to Erik Larson`s 2003 bestseller, "The Devil in the White City," yet another generation is fascinated by the 1893 Chicago World`s Fair: Columbian Exposition. Despite its enduring - in itself somewhat surprising - popularity, little remains of this by all accounts stunning little temporary city. One survivor serves as the entrance and gift shop to The Pabst Mansion, 2000 W. Wisconsin Ave., and it is in increasingly desperate condition.

Front Street

Published Thursday, May 16

For a variety of reasons, I`ve been thinking about Front Street, which now seems so ironically named, fronting as it does onto nothing and serving as the ultimate definition of a Milwaukee "backstreet." In my mind, I see something much different that can be seen on the block today.
