Contrary Brewing Company is located alongside the Mississippi River in Muscatine Iowa. The brewery produces an impressive menu of innovative brews. Many of the beers on offer are based on traditional European and American brewing styles which have been given an innovative crafty twist to make them unique. You can start by trying one of their tap-room ranges of Blonde and Pale Ales or be more adventurous and try the German’s Chocolate Cake – a heady Brown Ale redolent with coconut, chocolate and caramel. If you love fruity beers try their Moving to the Country Milkshake which shocks the palate with an abundance of vanilla, peach and mango. On good weather days you can enjoy your craft brew on the terrace overlooking the river.
