Great Dane Pub & Brewing Co.

Great Dane Pub & Brewing Co. is a brewpub that makes its own beer, including classic European styles and experimental IPAs, alongside a menu of house-made wings, tacos, burgers, salads, bowls and sandwiches. Its Madison-area pubs have been around since 1994, and the head brewmaster has more than three decades of experience. Beer lovers can also buy wholesale kegs and stein club memberships.

The downtown Madison pub is at 123 East Doty Street, and there are also locations on the east side and in Fitchburg. Tuesday brings nacho specials, and the pubs host large parties and private events. Platters can be ordered to go, and gift cards and a free Dane Rewards program are available.
