Vaune Dillmann / Proprietor
The son of a
Milwaukee, Wisconsin German father and Polish mother, youngest of five
children, Vaune grew up in the fine tradition of the great breweries for
which Milwaukee is famous. He dreamed of one day opening his own
brewery. In 1992, Vaune negotiated an agreement with the Belcastro
family to purchase the Medo-Bel Creamery and develop it into a
microbrewery. For twelve years, this project has evolved bringing
together a combination of the new and old. He received the approval of
the Abner Weed family to use the name of Weed on his first brew, Abner
Weed's Amber Ale. Vaune restored many artifacts from various areas of
the county and fascinating fixtures adorn the interior of our building.
