Iowa Eagle Flies to the Rescue
Iowa Brewing Company gives Iowans a good reason to choose local when stocking their coolers for football season.
Cedar Rapids, IA—If the recent Busch Light drama left a bad taste in your mouth—you’re not alone. Iowans everywhere are scrambling to find a suitable local replacement that can fill the 12-pack-sized void in their gameday coolers.
Iowa Brewing Company is here to remind you that you have choices. Much, much tastier choices.
When we started Iowa Brewing Company in 2016, we committed to crafting beer that represents who we are as a state. We do this by sourcing corn and hops from local farmers, brewing everything here at our facility in Cedar Rapids, and giving back to our community (and not just when we get national news coverage out of it).
If there’s a single beer that best represents who we are as a company, it’s our Iowa Eagle American Lager. Crisp, refreshing and ultra-drinkable, it’s a fan favorite—and a worthy replacement for that certain light beer whose name we no longer mention in polite company.
In case the taste alone isn’t a compelling enough reason to replace the beer in your fridge, we’ve got another one for you:
We’re donating proceeds from every sale of Iowa Eagle to charitable organizations in need of support across Iowa. This quarter’s recipient is the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital. It’s a part of our ongoing effort to give back—an effort that has no “best by” or expiration date.
It’s a tall order, but our tallboys are up for the challenge.
About Iowa Brewing Company
Combining tradition with innovation, our mission is to brew great beer for the people of Iowa—and beyond. We are a production brewery located in Cedar Rapids between the Downtown and New Bohemia districts. Our taproom is an easy walk to our city's cultural and dining attractions. For a bite between beers, we are partnering with area food trucks and we also encourage our guests to bring their favorite foods, preferably enough to share.
In celebration of the Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation’s 40th Anniversary, we are proud to announce our new partnership for enriching Iowa’s future! - Going forward every sale of our award winning Amber Lager, Tragedy of the Common, will support their ongoing effort to protect Iowa’s water. We are committed to donating a portion of the proceeds from every pint and six-pack of Tragedy to insure that Iowa continues to remain a good place to grow and that our most precious resources are safeguarded for future generations.
The INHF’s mission is protecting and restoring Iowa’s land, water and wildlife. Please take a moment to find out more about all of the great work that they do here: https://www.inhf.org/about-us/ because whether you enjoy Iowa’s rivers, lakes and streams or spend time on our network of bike trails or simply appreciate natural spaces - it’s very likely that the INHF has directly affected your life.
This Saturday we’ll be hosting our third Blessing of the Bock ceremony in our taproom at 2pm. We sat down with Jeff Allen, the founder of the old Stone City Brewing and ring leader of the Blessing ceremony, to learn more about this 22 year old tradition.
TOTAL RAISED: $4,204.20
Late last year Sierra Nevada, a pillar of American craft beer, put out a call for help following the recent wild fires that hit their community hard. We, along with over 1,400 breweries across the country, brewed Resilience IPA and pledged to donate 100% of its proceeds to the Camp Fire Relief Fund.
The Iowa Brewing Company Mug Club is an exclusive club for customers who receive special perks and discounts at Iowa Brewing Company. Join online or in the taproom.
New England Logger, our New England-inspired Pale Lager, returns this week as our Spring Seasonal. 6 packs are now available in our taproom and will go out to retailers next week.
Today we’re tapping a new experimental IPA called Kveik Yeah! Learn a bit more about this Norwegian IPA from our Head Brewer, Mike Wing.
Mango Bling Jacket, the first beer in our new Sour Ale series, debuts tomorrow. Bling Jacket is anything but basic. Fashioned with lactose, vanilla, and ample fruit. Juicy. Tart. This first test batch will only be available on draft, with 4-packs coming next month
