Iowa Beers Release/Distribution Thread
- Thread starter Malty Flannel
- Start date
I agree we have some great breweries in DM and most of the time that’s what I’m grabbing also but sometimes I like trying something different. I always check dates and untapped ratings before buying new ones.
I had a couple M-43 a couple years ago when visiting Michigan, and I did find it quite good. I can't say I've had the other Old Nation beer that will also be available in Iowa as well. The brewery has a good rep overall so I might try it as a change-up once in awhile, as long as we get them relatively fresh.
However I generally agree that for the most part I'm probably going to reach for something brewed in Iowa 9 times or more out of 10...mostly because it's more likely to be fresh, and I want to support Iowa breweries especially when I can do that and still get great beer.

I guess they’re banned too, along with Exile. Toppling Goliath and West O, it is!
Just don't buy the Tigerhawk?
Anyone really expect a business based out of Iowa City to not support the Hawks?

What's with TG? I'm not aware of any ISU support that they give?
I'm with you on Exile, though.
Has anyone been able to get any of the Shiner Bock strawberry beer this year, they have the raspberry in stock but not the strawberry.
They’re not, I believe Clark and Saboe are both Hawkeye fans. I think OP is just saying they’re neutral, I think backpocket also has cyclone beer(s) but don’t remember what they’re sponsoring with those. Confluence had Juicy Wiggle but again not sure if it’s sending any proceeds to ISU. If I recall barntown was doing some beers with CF a few years back. Maybe @brentblum has the history/master list.
Didn’t even realize those were a thing. Their grapefruit summer beer was always great on a hot day but not sure if they still make it.
I just know they sponsor CF. Truthfully, a master list would be very helpful for those breweries that support ISU (or at least don’t contribute to Iowa)
Do they sponsor CF specifically?
I was thinking it was just Iowa Everywhere, specifically two guys.
Not to mention, I was told that one of the co-owners is Nate Kaeding. I happened to be at a bar, having a beer and a bite to eat, when a Big Grove sales rep came in and started talking to me about my ISU hat. He informed me of the ownership group. I could hardly contain my excitement.
