About Tribute Brewing Co.

Tribute Brewing Co. is a brewery and taphouse on Bluebird Road in Eagle River, Wisconsin. Every beer it brews is a tribute to Eagle River folklore, from trains and landmarks to local legends. The taphouse pours them and the staff will tell you the stories behind them.

The flagships include 28 Lake Lager, a Dortmunder-style lager, and Barefoot Charlie IPA. Barefoot Charlie was a colorful local who went barefoot all year long. Blueberry Train Wheat Ale honors the train that carried wild blueberries from Conover to Chicago.

Seasonals rotate through the year, such as Frostwatch Cranberry Wheat Ale in fall and Motor Toboggan Coffee Stout in winter. A blueberry seltzer and a mojito style sour have joined the list too. The brewery says White Legs Jalapeno Wheat Ale won gold in the Chili Beer division at the 2018 Great American Beer Festival.

You can take beer home as well, because the taphouse sells to-go beer. Current happenings are posted on the brewery's Facebook and Instagram.
