In recognition of its 115th anniversary, Harley-Davidson teamed up with three breweries to create a commemorative beer.
The limited-edition Harley-Davidson 115th Anniversary Milwaukee Lager is tied to Milwaukee, Wisconsin as the home of the company’s headquarters and the region's local talent and ingredients. For the making of the beer, Harley-Davidson worked with a trio of Milwaukee-based breweries: Good City Brewing, Third Space Brewing and the Milwaukee Brewing Company.
All-Wisconsin malts that were roasted in Milwaukee are a feature of the commemorative beer, which was created to appeal to both new and old Harley fans across multiple generations. In terms of taste, the lager is said to be slightly fruity, appealing to traditionalists and craft beer drinkers alike.
