​Keg Creek Brewing Company

Wise I Brewing Company
15 2nd St NE, Le Mars, IA 51031

Recognized by the Iowa Brewer’s Guild as the 100th brewery in Iowa and Plymouth County’s first commercial micro-brewery. Wise I Brewing Company was born out of a love of delicious craft beverages and the desire to bring them to the masses.  As for the name, we were inspired by a variety of sources.  From Ida B. Wise, an Iowan directly involved with the temperance and prohibition movement in the early part of the century, to the state of Iowa and paying homage through the golden “I” in our logo, and of course our consortium of Wise followers joining us in our quest for the holy grail.
