Keg Curling in Tosa

Your new favorite winter activity!

The Tosa patio is in full swing this winter with a new ice rink, patio heaters, and heated greenhouses. But the thing we’re most excited about is the return of KEG CURLING to Milwaukee!

So what is keg curling and how does it work?

Great question! Two teams face off sliding mini kegs back and forth across the ice trying to get their kegs closest to the center of the target (house) while knocking the other team’s kegs out of the way.

This sounds awesome, how can I curl?

It is awesome! There are two ways to curl this winter:

  • Starting in January 2025, Reserve a lane for 60 minute blocks on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for $15.

  • Join a league on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (see below for details).

How to you keep score?

It’s a lot like bocce. Each team slides 4 kegs in a turn or “end.” The team with the keg closest to the center (tee) scores and gets an additional point for every keg they have closer to the tee than the other team’s closest keg. If no team gets a keg in the scoring circle, then neither team gets points and it’s called a “blank end.” The team with the most total points after 10 ends wins the game.

What if the weather is bad?

BIG UPGRADES THIS YEAR - The rink will be under a tent with side walls. There won’t be heaters under the tent - so dress accordingly - but the ice should be in good shape all winter!
