Beer and history enthusiasts alike will get something out of a tour at the Leinenkugel Brewing Company. The experience begins at the Leinie Lodge (124 E. Elm St., Chippewa Falls) and goes through more than 150 years of brewing history. The Lodge also hosts special events such as trivia nights, Paws and Pints, and launch parties for seasonal beers such as the ever-popular Summer Shandy. There are no lions at the Irvine Park and Zoo (125 Bridgewater Ave., Chippewa Falls), but it is home to tigers and bears – plus bison and hyenas and birds. (Oh my!) There’s also a petting zoo open during the summer months. The Sculpture Tour Eau Claire hosts a rotating display of outdoor art. The 53 sculptures unveiled in 2019 made it the second-largest tour of its kind in the country. – Danielle Zinsli
