What's Left of Milwaukee's Iconic Beer Line #1jpg

This view looks southeast across Hampton and Teotonia Avenues.

 

All that is left of Milwaukee's legendary "Beer Line" that once extended several miles into the city's north side to service Schlitz, Pabst, and Blatz-as well as dozens of other customers-is this quarter mile or so segment.

 

WSOR operates it and services the last customer on the line-Benz Oil. The track extends across Teutonia Avenue to provide a tail track for switching Benz, using part of a siding that once serviced a lumber yard.
