All the Oshkosh Breweries, 1849-2019



There have been 21 breweries in Oshkosh since Jacob Konrad launched the Lake Brewery here in 1849. The peak year was 1878 when the city had nine breweries. Today, we have four. And that's about the average over the course of the city's history.

So, where in Oshkosh were all these breweries? I've made an interactive map to answer that question. The map below shows the location of every Oshkosh brewery from 1849 until right now. Click on any of the beer mugs in the map and it will pull up the brewery located there and its dates of operation. Zoom in to draw a better bead on where a brewery was within a particular neighborhood. To get the full experience, click here and view the full map in a separate browser window. Prost!

  1. This is a fun interactive map that brings the brewing history(and present) of Oshkosh into clear view. Nice. This reminds me of an app that I use when traveling to find microbreweries wherever I am and for that matter all along the way. brewerymap.com will help you find a pint almost anywhere.
