We are Grateful, Honored and Humbled to our Illinois friends at Phase Three Brewing for trusting us with their fine brews. We’ve always admired their fine work and were kind of bummed that they were not within our realm. Well, we couldn’t be more delighted that this has changed!
We are heading there to pick up early next week so they can be delivered to your shelves next Thursday. For freshness sake, we agreed that we will be doing 2 pickups a month. Their kegs are filled on demand, so please reach out to your Abu Nawas Sales Rep about current availability and timelines: we’ll take care of you. All offerings are available in 1/6bbl and most are also available in 1/2bbl.
Please help us welcome this amazingly talented bunch back to Iowa!

Weeks ago the unfortunate news came out that many popular and delicious craft beers where seeing their last days on shelves in Iowa due to their distributor pulling out of Iowa. With such a wide portfolio of beers it was just a matter of time before some of those breweries would be picked up by others. We’ve seen Weldwerks get picked up, Untitled Art as well, and I can now tell you that Phase Three will also be coming back to Iowa. Stay tuned for distro confirmation and dates as well! Cheers!
