The Green Bay Packers' Week 11 loss to the Baltimore Ravens resulted in a lot of free beer at one Milwaukee-area pub.

Each week at the Bavarian Bierhaus, beers are on the house until the Packers score. The special backfired terribly Sunday, though, as Green Bay was shut out for the first time since 2006.

General manager Scott Bell told WGBA-TV's Marisa DeCandido about 200 people came out to watch the game and that his staff served between 275-300 glasses of beer. He plans to continue the promotion.

"Wisconsinites and Packers fans are at least somewhat responsible," he said.
