Happy Birthday, Sugar Maple

OnMilwaukee.com is reporting that April signifies the first birthday of the Sugar Maple in chic Bay View:

Being 100 percent smoke-free certainly has not stunted Sugar Maple's growth. Although still a member of the minority in the Milwaukee bar scene, the Bay View beertopia can breathe easy as it reaches an important milestone in April: its first birthday.

Although the space, which used to be the Sikh Temple, was initially criticized for being a bit too sparse for a neighborhood hangout, it has really grown into its skin and made the bar a laid-back, comfortable place to gather and geek out over hops. The recently added couch section really does wonders.

Besides being one of the few bars in the area that is smoke-free and has a great selection of regionally crafted brews, it is also the home of Milwaukee's chapter of Drinking Liberally. Speaking of which, the next gathering is coming up, ironically enough, on Tax Day, April 15th.
