Currently second route in from the left. Uphill past the chert wall. Great first lead to the first anchor at 5.7, the extension bumps it up into the 5.9 territory. 5 bolts to the first anchor, 11 bolts if going to the top anchor. Shares anchors with the route to the left

Currently furthest left route past the chert wall. Shares anchors with the route to the right. 7 bolts 5.10a

Climb black chert bands to a small overhang, Pull the overhang on the left and continue up easier ground to a chain anchor.  

Climb chert bands in a gray streak to an overhang. Pull the overhang clipping a bolt, traverse a few moves right, then continue up to a chain anchor.

 The first bolt was added to make this route reasonable for a 5.10- leader.  Skip it for the old school experience!

A mellow start leads to pulling the technical and physical crux, pulling the roof via the pale dihedral.

Start up the route using side pulls to an overhang.  Pull into the overhang on small holds and through it on jugs. Continue up blocky chert to open shuts.

 The second bolt was added to mitigate the chance of decking.  Skip the second bolt for the old school experience!

Up the center of the wall towards the horizontal roof at the top. Through the steep crux on holds that are positive and less painfully sharp than most in the area. Probably the best route at Cheap Beer Crag.

Another sharp 10 which parallels original route 1, but a few feet to the right, tackling the small roof head-on then passing the route 1 anchors on the right to continue up another 20 feet of moderate climbing. Watch out for a couple loose-looking blocks up here, easy to avoid though.Called 10d in the new Mojave limestone guide but felt somewhat easier (certainly easier than King of Beers in my mind), more like 10b. Also called Schlitz in that guide, but as there is already another route by that name in mp I'll avoid the naming confusion for now and let someone else solve that problem.

Climb chert bands to a small roof.  Pull the roof on good holds and continue up a gray slab to open shuts shared by Easy Does It.

Start up the route using side pulls and stems to an overhang. Pull fun moves through the overhang using a short left leaning crack.  Continue up chert bands clipping 3 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor with biners that could use some lower off hardware.

This route is the last route left before you hit the chert wall. 6 bolts. 80 feet 5.8

Rightmost route that finishes on the small roof that tops the center of the crag. Up past a large loose-looking flake on its left side to some lower-angle terrain before a reach over the lip to gain the top. Somewhat runout compared to its neighbors, but soft for the grade. If this is the best Milwaukee has to offer, I don't ever want to go to Milwaukee...

Climb chert bands through a blocky groove to open shuts. 

A mixture of brown and gray chert covered limestone. This crag has about a dozen routes, ranging from 5.7 to 5.10+.

 Six of these routes were established without much consideration years ago between partying sessions. Hence the name "Cheap Beer Crag."
