A Midwest sitcom with heart, humor & hometown flavor filming June, 2026!

Join us in brewing up something hilarious and heartfelt right here in Wisconsin!

The contrast between California and Wisconsin is where Brewed Awakening was born. At its core, it’s a show about family, resilience, and finding humor in life’s biggest transitions. In a time when the world could use more lighthearted stories, this series delivers both laughs and heart. Brewed Awakening brings these two together in a comedic way with a team that is made up of passionate Wisconsin actors, filmmakers, and creatives. While most ideas come out of Hollywood, this show sets out to prove that powerful, professional, and hilarious storytelling can come together from right here in the Midwest. The cast and crew are deeply connected to the community, and that lived experience shines through in every performance.

A cultural shift is underway, with audiences increasingly drawn to warm, optimistic shows rooted in connection, heart, and humor. Brewed Awakening speaks directly to this moment. At the same time, there remains a noticeable absence of authentic Midwest representation on television — leaving an entire region under-served and eager to see its culture, humor, and values portrayed.

The series also taps into the thriving brewery scene, bringing with it a built-in audience of enthusiasts, small-business supporters, and regional pride. At its core is a multi-generational family — a widowed father, two very different kids, and a delightfully unpredictable grandmother — creating broad, cross-demographic appeal. In an entertainment landscape actively searching for feel-good, community-driven storytelling, Brewed Awakening delivers heart, humor, and a sense of belonging — all with a splash of hops!

And right now, with the return of Wisconsin’s film incentives, there’s a rare opportunity to build something meaningful locally while making an impact nationally. Brewed Awakening is poised to be that project!
