Located on the shore of Lake Michigan, Milwaukee was once known as the beer capital of the US. The home of major brewing companies, thanks to the settlement of Germans to this area of Wisconsin, Milwaukee was synonymous with beer. After the decline of the manufacturing industry, Milwaukee has since refreshed its image with the addition of lakefront and riverbank condos, skyscrapers and lofts. Rapid changing weather is a hallmark of Milwaukee due to its location on the Great Lakes, causing cold snowy winters and humid hot summers.
