Milwaukee Shuttles to Brewers Games, Summerfest & More
Oak Barrel Public House runs a free courtesy shuttle to every Milwaukee Brewers home game, major concerts at American Family Field, Summerfest, and the Wisconsin State Fair. All you need is any food or drink purchase at the bar or kitchen — no minimum, no reservation required. Let your server or bartender know you want to ride, and we will put a wristband on your wrist right there. That wristband is your ride.
You can bring the drink you purchased right onto the shuttle.
How the Oak Barrel Courtesy Shuttle Works
Order anything off the bar or menu. Tell your server or bartender you want to take the shuttle and they will get you a wristband on the spot. When the shuttle arrives for pickup, the driver comes inside Oak Barrel and personally announces the departure - including how long before the bus leaves. You will also be able to see the shuttle right from the bar. There is no wristband cap. Every guest who makes a purchase and asks for one gets one.
Brewers Game Shuttles from Oak Barrel — Every Home Game
Oak Barrel runs courtesy shuttles to every Milwaukee Brewers home game at American Family Field throughout the season. The shuttle starts running two hours before first pitch, giving you time to eat, drink, and get settled before heading to the ballpark. Return pickups begin at the start of the 7th inning and run until every guest is back. Drop-off and pickup at American Family Field are along the third base line, close to the entrance gates.
Concert Shuttles to American Family Field
When major headliners come to American Family Field, Oak Barrel offers the same courtesy shuttle service. The shuttle starts running two hours before showtime and continues until every guest has been brought back. Same process - any purchase earns a wristband, and your drink rides with you.
Summerfest Shuttles from Oak Barrel
Oak Barrel runs courtesy shuttle service to Summerfest on Milwaukee's lakefront during the festival run. Shuttles start at 4:00 PM and continue for at least one hour after the grounds close - or until every guest has made it back to the bar. Drop-off is in the designated shuttle area at the Summerfest grounds, steps from the entrance.
Wisconsin State Fair Shuttles from Oak Barrel
The Oak Barrel State Fair shuttle runs on the same schedule as our Summerfest service. Shuttles begin at 4:00 PM and run for at least one hour after the fair closes - or until every guest is back. Drop-off is at the designated shuttle area at State Fair Park in West Allis, close to the entrance gates.
