Big Grove Brewery celebrating 10 years!

Press release courtesy of Big Grove:

Big Grove Brewery Celebrates 10-Year Milestone with Weeklong Festivities

Unforgettable music & events, commemorative beer releases, and exclusive merch planned.

Iowa City, IA (August 03, 2023): Big Grove Brewery is raising a glass to celebrate a decade of amazing experiences, fresh craft beer, and Iowa hospitality. 

To commemorate the past ten years, brewers at Big Grove we are crafting ten original beers, including fan favorites, Big Grove IPA, Que Será, and the beer that started it all, West Main Wheat. These small-batch beers will be released during their anniversary throughout ten days of celebrations and community events leading up to the brewery’s official anniversary over Labor Day weekend. 

Big Grove Brewery was founded in 2013 at 101 West Main Street in Solon, Iowa, by partners Doug Goettsch, Faye Swift, and Matt Swift. From day one, we have believed “you have to give people a reason to leave their living room,” recalled Faye. On her business partners, “Matt and I have tremendous trust in each other, and Doug was a constant hospitality guru, that’s who he is in his bones.” The trio pushed on the original concept of high-quality beer, great food, and genuine care for our community. Faye added, “The best it can be is what we want it to be. I’m a person who believes in creating opportunity, and if you can see it, you can seize it.”

In 2017, the company opened Big Grove Brewery & Taproom with a full-scale production facility in Iowa City and now maintains a platinum green certification. The original partners continue to operate the company with additional operating partners for Iowa City, Des Moines, and a soon-to-be-open Lagerhaus-style brewery in Cedar Rapids. Still innovating a decade later, Big Grove Brewery offers beyond beer products, including spirit-based seltzers, and plans to release cannabis-infused sparkling water beverages. Big Grove beverages are available at bars, restaurants, and retailers across the entire state. 

The festivities officially kick off Saturday, August 26th, in the evening, with music from The Dip. The concert will be hosted in the yard from 5 p.m. to 12 a.m. at the Big Grove Brewery taproom at 1225 S. Gilbert St., Iowa City. Readers of this article can use code backyardbigshow1z to receive 25% off two tickets.
