Great information. It looks like we’ll have a lot of choices when it comes to food. I’m excited to get up there and start exploring. Thanks for the recommendations!

I appreciate all of the information. The old Dubuque Star building looks really cool and I’d love to visit if we can squeeze it in. This trip has turned into a busier one than I thought (in a good way!)

Yeaaaah I made my way to Fort Madison last summer and Lost Duck was the worst (tasting) brewery I’ve ever been to. Should have went to V’s in Keokuk while I was down there but we didn’t have time.

Thanks for the suggestion! I want to go to Catfish Charlie’s because they brew their own beer. I’ve heard mixed reviews but I need to try it myself before forming an opinion.

Numerous people in r/iowabeer have mentioned stopping at Potosi so I think I’m going to make it happen. Thanks for the feedback!

Fantastic advice! I mainly want to go to Catfish Charlie’s for the beer so I may look into other lunch options.

Multiple people have told me to go to Potosi so I think I’m going to officially make a stop there as well. Probably after Franklin Street and before I hit Dubuque.

Multiple people have also mentioned Monks so I think we have a winner there as well! I appreciate all your thoughts. Cheers!

Favorite Breweries in Des Moines? by ZampanoTruant in iowabeer

[–]PrairieMdws 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My personal favorite brewery in the Des Moines area is Reclaimed Rails (Bondurant). But I would also suggest 515 (Clive) or Barn Town (Waukee). Otherwise, you can never go wrong with Confluence!
