Confluence Brewing Company

Confluence Brewing Company Confluence Brewing Company is a brewery in Des Moines, Iowa. The brewery is itself a confluence of John and Ken’s love for Iowa and craft beer.
(2203)

After years of hobby brewing and an increasingly ardent interest in brewing as a profession — including countless brewery tours and immersion in local and online brewing interest groups — John Martin and fellow home brewer and co-founder Ken Broadhead launched Confluence Brewing in 2012. John left his construction management day-job to pursue Confluence and his passion for beer making full time. T

he result is a microbrewery that shares Iowa’s attributes of honesty, humility, hard work and a sense of humor. Confluence also has Iowa’s knack for being a delightful surprise to those who actually experience it. Confluence cares about the creativity and craftsmanship that goes into making excellent beer, and knows that excellent beer can bring good friends together.

We officially made our first beer run to Nebraska! Accounts across the state should start receiving Confluence this week! 📍🚚🍺

We’re grateful for the opportunity to become part of Nebraska’s craft beer community and can’t wait to share a pint with our neighbors to the west.

Getting here wasn't easy, but some things are worth the trip.

Isn’t she beautiful? Our little snag with our 12oz cans lead us to bottle Suit of Amour this time around! We had to wait a few more weeks to enjoy this masterpiece, but we think it was worth the wait! Available now in our taproom to-go (and on tap!). Distribution across Iowa will begin Monday, June 1st 🍺
