While Milwaukee sometimes gets an undeserved rap for being populated with beer-swilling boors, there is a large demographic group that enjoys quaffing more elegant (and potent) libations. Make no mistake, they can tap any beer, ale or stout you desire, but don’t waste a trip to the Hi Hat without savoring at least one of the meticulously mixed martinis, chosen by our readers as the best in town.
