Brewery Closures in Wisconsin

Buyout or full liquidation for Wisconsin breweries — Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay and statewide. We handle disconnect, rigging, loading and freight, so you are not coordinating three vendors during the worst month of your year.

What Wisconsin closures usually look like

Wisconsin brews at every scale, from legacy regional plants to the modern craft wave, and the state has an unusual amount of older German-built and heritage equipment still in service. Worth a careful look when a Wisconsin brewery closes.

Getting it out of Wisconsin

Straight shot up I-65 through Chicago. Easy lane.

Two ways we can do this

Buyout

One check for the whole package. We come to Milwaukee or wherever you are, look at what you have, and make an offer. If you take it, we handle the removal and you are finished.

Full liquidation

We list and sell each piece to end users over a period of weeks and pass the proceeds through less our fee. Higher gross than a buyout, and it takes longer. Right when you have time and wrong when you do not.

What we buy out of a Wisconsin brewery

Whole packages are easiest and usually worth the most, but we will look at anything on this list.

Brite tanks

Equipment is pulled from the facility in working condition unless a listing notes otherwise. Send a list and photographs of the nameplates and we can give you a real number instead of a cautious one.
