Share this brewery with your friends!
Confluence Brewing Company in DesâŻMoines, Iowa, is where the oldâschool reverence for malt meets a swagger for the unexpected. They churn out over 200 different beers a year, so even the most seasoned pintâsnob will find something that makes the palate sit up straight. Every week a fresh batch rolls out of the fermenters, usually accompanied by a live band or a comedy set, turning a simple tasting into a proper spectacle.
The place isnât just for humans; the dogâfriendly beer garden means you can bring a fourâlegged mate to share in the merriment while you sample a flight of 5âounce pours that spans everything from crisp lagers to hazy IPAs. An offâtheâcuff bike path drops you right at the door, a subtle nod to the breweryâs âcome as you areâ ethos (the founders, who had worked together for years, decided that convenience should be as smooth as their stouts).
Add a rotating calendar of events, a generous outdoor seating area with tables and a fullâsized bar, and a selection of styles so broad it could host a United Nations of ales, and youâve got a brewery that takes tradition seriously without ever sounding pretentious. Cheers to that.
