Traffic totaled after tipsy beer truck flips on suburban highway

A tipsy beer truck that flipped over on a Wisconsin highway turned into a real headache.

An 18-wheeler loaded up with Miller High Life lost its balance on Interstate 41 outside Milwaukee on Thursday, burying the busy roadway in brewskis and snarling traffic for miles, the Menomonee Falls Police Department said in a post on X.

Photos released by cops show the truck down for the count along the median, with cases of beer smashed to bits and spilling out onto the highway.

The mishap shut down two lanes along a suburban stretch of the freeway for a couple of hours while emergency crews cleaned up the mess.

The driver of the truck in last week’s beer bath mishap, who was not identified by police, was treated for minor injuries after the crash.

The driver of a second vehicle involved in the boozy wreck was not hurt.

Cops said it appeared that alcohol was not a factor in the crash just a casualty.

Ironically, the department said Friday marked the anniversary of another noteworthy roadway blunder the 1968 milk delivery truck crash on Silver Spring Drive and Lannon Road in Menomonee Falls.
