Thank you so much for the advice BuckyBrewer, I really appreciate it. I will make a note of everything you have said and try to make a visit to all of them. Cheers

Aww, August 27 is the only game we *don't* have tickets for in that series. Otherwise I'd find a way to drop by and say hello. Sounds like your seat will be quite good, though. Are you visiting with a rooting interest for either team, or primarily to see the ballpark? I'm visiting the ballpark mainly, Miller park will be #16 and looks a nice ballpark. I follow the Giants but I didn't want to say anything until I got a bit of information, haha. I travel over to the states every year to watch the Giants play a few games and this year I wanted to watch the 4 game series at Wrigley field against the Cubs, so it made sense to drop in on Milwaukee but then it also made sense to visit Cleveland too, so my trip ended up being 3 nights in Milwaukee, 3 nights in Cleveland, 4 nights in Chicago, 3 nights in Denver ( Giants @ Rockies ) and 2 nights in New Orleans ( just for the hell of it ). I did see the Brewers in 2012 play in St Louis, plenty of brewer fans there, they travelled quite well. Anyway, shame you couldn't drop by to say hello, you never know, you may still bump into me somewhere along the lines.

Hi buckybrewer61, I'm happy with bars with a good friendly atmosphere, somewhere I can sit at the bar with a cold beer and chat to people ( I travel alone ), not really bothered about the college crowd, I'm 34, so my twenties are behind me now. Staggering distance from Hilton hotel on Wisconsin ave would be a bonus too. I like the sound of the shuttles to and from the stadium, I may take this option...

Hey Baldkin, thanks a lot for the help, I'm only in town for a weekend but I'm sure I will make a visit to all of your reccomendations.

Hey Hawing, I have 1 game ticket for Saturday August 27th against the Pirates. I am sitting in 328 row 1, I got the ticket back in February.

I'm a baseball fan from England and will be traveling to Milwaukee in a few weeks to watch the Brewers play the Pirates. I just have a few questions I hope you can help me with. Firstly, the best way to get to Miller park from downtown? Good places to eat?, nothing fancy, I travel alone so no need to impress anyone! Most important, best pubs or watering holes in the downtown Milwaukee area? I appreciate any help you can give me. Cheers.
