608 Brewing Company Taproom & Kitchen

Holmen’s newer taproom from 608 Brewing Company gives the community a direct link to a brewery that began in nearby La Crosse in 2018. The Holmen Taproom & Kitchen opened in 2024 as the company’s second taproom and kitchen facility, extending its reach farther into the Driftless Region. Visitors should expect a beer-focused stop built around variety rather than a single house style. The parent brewery is known for an active production schedule, with roughly 80 unique beers released annually, so the experience is shaped by what is currently pouring rather than a fixed lineup.

Travelers in this part of Wisconsin often look for local beer alongside regional food stops, outdoor time, and visits to river towns and smaller communities. A stop here fits that pattern because it offers a place to sample beers from a brewery already established in the La Crosse-area scene without needing to go into La Crosse itself. The known emphasis is on diverse and bold beer styles made with high-quality ingredients, which makes the taproom useful for visitors who like comparing different approaches in one sitting. It is also a practical option for groups with mixed preferences, since the brewery’s broad release schedule suggests a rotating selection across styles.

For planning, the confirmed amenities are straightforward: this is a taproom and kitchen in Holmen, opened in 2024. Specific beers, food menu items, hours, seating arrangements, events, and service details are not established here, so the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours and kitchen offerings. If you are seeking a particular style or a specific release, check directly with 608 Brewing Company before making a special trip. For most visitors, the main reason to go is the rotating beer selection from a La Crosse-born brewery that has expanded its local footprint into Holmen.
