The Iowa Brewing Company’s brewery facility in Cedar Rapids still looks shiny and new but it is constantly growing from strength to strength. The Taproom is a comfortable space to spend time with friends, listen to some live music and taste some great craft brews. (There is also a great outdoor seating area for balmy summer days). The brewery produces a range of year-round core brews which include Iowa Eagle (American Lager), Bohemian Rapids (Czech Pilsner), Surf Zombies (IPA) and Tragedy of the Common (Amber Lager). This core selection is joined by seasonal brews including Sterling Bridge Scottish Ale and Oja Baltic Porter. Several of the beers are produced using innovative barrel maturation.
