About Peace Tree Brewing

Since 2009, Peace Tree Brewing has been crafting beers inspired by Iowa traditions, strong communities, and the simple idea that great beer is meant to be shared.

Rooted in Iowa Since 2009

Peace Tree Brewing was founded with a commitment to creating thoughtful, high-quality beer while staying connected to the people and places that make Iowa special. From our earliest days in Knoxville, Iowa to today, we've focused on brewing beers that bring people together and become part of life's memorable moments.

Our Story Continues in Waterloo, Iowa

Peace Tree's brewing operations are now proudly based in the historic Wonder Bread Building. Here, tradition and innovation come together as we brew award-winning favorites, seasonal releases, and new creations that reflect our passion for craftsmanship and community.

No matter how much changes, our purpose remains the same: brew great beer, build meaningful connections, and create experiences worth sharing.
