Can You Buy Water Street Brewery Beer to Take Home? Price and Options

Updated

Yes. Water Street Brewery sells six-packs of its own beer to take home, listed at $9.99. The two varieties named in that offer are Oktoberfest and Honey Lager Light, and both are brewed and canned at the Oak Creek location.

That answers the core question, but a few practical details are worth knowing before you drive over.

What you can take home

Item Detail
Format Six-packs
Listed price $9.99
Varieties named Oktoberfest, Honey Lager Light
Where brewed and canned Oak Creek location
Locations Grafton, Delafield, Oak Creek, WI

The take-home offer is tied to the brewery's own canned beer rather than a general retail bottle shop, so the selection rotates with what's been canned. Oktoberfest is a seasonal style, which means it may not be on the shelf year-round even though it appears in the current offer.

Where to buy it

Water Street Brewery has three Wisconsin locations:

  • Grafton — 1251 Gateway Drive, Grafton, WI 53024
  • Delafield — 3191 Golf Road, Delafield, WI 53018
  • Oak Creek — 140 West Town Square Way, Oak Creek, WI 53154

Oak Creek is the production site for the canned six-packs, so it's the most reliable stop if you want to confirm availability in person. The other two locations are full restaurants and may carry the same cans, but the page doesn't state that take-home six-packs are stocked at all three. If a specific variety matters to you, call the location before making the trip.

What else is worth knowing

Water Street Brewery opened in 1987 and describes itself as Milwaukee's first brewpub. Since then it reports producing more than 64,000 half-barrels, so the canned six-pack is a small side of a much larger brewing operation rather than a one-off novelty.

If you're planning around a visit rather than a quick pickup, two recurring food events run at all three locations:

  • Friday Fish Fry — every Friday, with cod, perch, or blackened whitefish
  • Brunch — Saturdays 11am–3pm and Sundays 10am–3pm

There's also a Brewmaster's Lunch Break with specialty items, available Tuesday through Thursday, 11am–3pm in Grafton, Oak Creek, and Delafield.

Common snags

  • Seasonal availability. Oktoberfest is a fall style. Seeing it in the current offer doesn't guarantee it's canned in, say, spring.
  • Location differences. The page confirms brewing and canning at Oak Creek but doesn't promise six-packs at Grafton or Delafield. Treat Oak Creek as the safe bet.
  • Price changes. $9.99 is the listed price. The site doesn't state whether it applies at every location or whether it's subject to change, so confirm at the register or by phone.
  • No online ordering details for beer. The site has an "Order Online" section, but the page evidence doesn't specify whether take-home six-packs can be ordered that way. Assume in-person pickup unless you confirm otherwise.

Bottom line

You can buy Water Street Brewery beer to take home as six-packs for a listed $9.99, with Oktoberfest and Honey Lager Light named as the current varieties. Head to Oak Creek if you want the surest shot at the canned selection, and check ahead if you're after a specific style.
