Overview
We are Rooted in our Craft.
We’re honored to serve you in our taprooms and breweries in Solon, Iowa City, Des Moines, and Cedar Rapids. Big Grove Brewery prides itself on hand-selecting the highest quality hops and grains and putting them in the hands of seasoned and skilled brewers.
We’re especially proud that Easy Eddy, our flagship hazy IPA, is a US Open Beer Championship gold medal winner and the best-selling IPA in Iowa. Our märzen, Festbier, earned silver at one of America’s largest beer festivals, GABF, while many of our other beers have won recognition across the country for their quality.
A Platinum-Certified Iowa Green Brewery, you can trust that we prioritize sustainability and quality. Recently, we installed a CO²-capturing unit in our brewery to recapture gas emitted from the brewing process and put it back to use.
Our communities, brewers, and staff have made us the #1 selling craft beer in Iowa and in the top 150 largest craft breweries in the United States. Our success is due not only to our wonderful teams but to our amazing customers who continue to support us year after year.
