About Jubeck New World Brewing

Jubeck New World Brewing is a nano brewery and taproom in downtown Dubuque. Its website says it was Dubuque's first craft brewery. Founders Jay Jubeck and Dan Caraway opened the doors in July 2014.

The taproom sits in a historic building with exposed brick walls, a tin ceiling and wood floors. Its website says the founders and their friends built almost everything themselves, including the reclaimed wood bar and tables and a custom 2 barrel brewing system. The site also says there are no TVs, with soft lighting and vintage tunes on the record player.

The tap list leans toward hazy IPAs, with a Czech pale lager, a porter, a stout and fruit beers alongside. Local hard cider is almost always on tap too, and the website notes that cider is gluten-free.

You can eat here as well. Pizzas, pretzels and sandwiches are available to order in the taproom. The old taproom can also be rented for private parties and events.
