Horny Goat Hideaway builds major outdoor expansion

Horny Goat Brewing Co. is expanding its Horny Goat Hideaway brew pub at 2011 S. 1st St., located along the Kinnickinnic River on Milwaukee’s south side.
Construction began this month on the project, which will include four volleyball courts, corn hole (bean bag) pits, a 50-seat outdoor bar, a landscaped patio/boardwalk area, fire pits, 10 boat slips and an area for outdoor live band performances.
Horny Goat is not disclosing the cost of the project, but claims it will create the largest outdoor bar patio in Milwaukee.
“Horny Goat is all about fun, friendship and of course, outstanding beer,” said Horny Goat Brewing chief executive officer and co-owner Jim Sorenson. “Horny Goat knows that good beer is as fundamental to a great party as kicking music and cool people. This new complex will bring together all of these elements to create an experience like no other in this town or the rest of the Midwest.”
The project was designed by Milwaukee-based Rinka Chung Architecture and is being built by Milwaukee-based Castle Rock Construction.
“The covered bar will have a modern industrial feel that reflects the feel of the surrounding neighborhood,” said Bret Radke, project director for Rinka Chung. “Inside, patrons will be able to enjoy an ice cold Horny Goat beer while sitting at the bar or nearby tables. Outside the covered bar, there will be an expanse of tables for dining and a river boardwalk featuring gas fed fire pits. There will also be a raised platform on the western end of the patio for live entertainment.”
The volleyball courts are expected to be completed by April 1. The rest of the project is expected to be completed by May 15.
Horny Goat Brewing Company was created about a year ago. The company has six beers and plans to add two more this summer. Horny Goat makes its beers at the Stevens Point Brewery in Stevens Point.
The Horny Goat Hideaway brew pub opened in October, in the former Milwaukee Pump House bar and grill location at 2011 S. 1st St.
