Vintage Brewery Bar & Restaurant
Sauk City, Wisconsin
Working with the owner we created a unique old factory experience within a new facility. The 3-story building houses a full lower-level brewery, large refrigerated beer storage, banquet hall, kitchen, dining, deck, and outdoor service area.
The exposed steel and wood structure, the different materials used throughout the facility, the use of beer barrel staves for the guard rails and the two-story view of the brewery equipment provide an amazing experience to all who enter. The views from the dining, bar, and banquet areas overlook the beautiful Wisconsin River. The banquet hall accommodates 250 people while the outdoor wood-framed deck area can accommodate 220 people.
The structural design included building into the side of a hill, the use of precast plank for the first floor over the main brewery, and exposed wood trusses for the second floor and the roof structure. Wood shear walls were used around the perimeter while steel moment frames to provide an open floor plan.
