We are thrilled and humbled to announce our involvement with this new chapter in the rich history of locally brewed beer here in Winona. Our goal is to move this brewery forward with a "local first" mentality, both in terms of sourcing ingredients and community involvement. New equipment has been ordered, new beer styles are on the brewing schedule, and a complete rebranding is on the horizon.

Fortunately, we will have plenty of Island City beer in stock during the initial transition period. This will enable us to continue operating smoothly while retaining much of the current team and many of the weekly events you know and love. The staff's knowledge, friendliness, and inclusivity are all top-notch and are crucial to ensuring a successful transition.

During this transitional period, we welcome the town to join us for a pint in bidding farewell to Island City Brewing Company and to welcome a new beginning over these next couple of months. Cheers to the past by helping to drain the tanks and cheers to the future as we introduce our brewing style and philosophy. There will be a grand opening when the time is right but for now, stop down, see the transition in real time, and have a pint or two. We are owner-operators and will be onsite more often than not and would love to say hello and answer any questions you have about the future plans.

Cheers, Brook and Graham.
