About Thumb Knuckle Brewing Company
Thumb Knuckle Brewing Company is an independently owned brewery and taproom on WI-54 in Luxemburg, in Kewaunee County. It opened in 2017. The name comes from the map: Wisconsin looks like a hand, and the brewery sits on the knuckle at the base of the thumb.
The brewing equipment is repurposed dairy equipment that once worked on local dairy farms. The brewery says nearly all of its ingredients are sourced locally.
Ed Thiry is the brewmaster. He studied through Weihenstephan in Germany and did an 18-month internship at a small Bavarian brewery, so the beer is brewed in the German style for drinkability.
The taproom is a relaxed place to sit with friends, and it has free wifi. The tap list changes often, and pizzas from Ron's Cheese in Luxemburg and Bavarian-style pretzels are on offer. You can fill a growler to take home.
