An early fascination with the intricacies and expertise needed to brew a great craft beer led Confluence Brewery founder John Martin to keep honing his home-brewing skills and eventually go into a micro-brewery partnership with fellow brewing enthusiast Ken Broadhead. Today you can visit the Confluence Brewing Company Taproom to spend some convivial time with friends tasting a range of traditional (and non-traditional) craft beers. Year-round stalwarts include Des Moines IPA, Farmer John’s Ale, Capital Gold Lager and Thomas Beck Black IPA. Seasonal innovations and unique limited release brews include a choice of Milk Stouts, Lagers, Blonde Ales, Sour Ales, Hefeweizens and an English-style ESB.
