Brewery Profile
Stevens Point Brewery
In Stevens Point’s beer scene, the long-running reference point is a brewery that dates to 1857 and is recognized as one of the oldest continuously operating breweries in the United States. A visitor arriving here finds a producer with a broader identity than a single flagship beer or a narrow set of modern styles. Its portfolio includes traditional craft beers, hard ciders, and non-alcoholic beverages, so the impression is of a working Wisconsin brewery that has stayed active by serving several kinds of drinkers. Year-round beers such as Point Special Lager, Amber Lager, and Drop Dead Blonde give the lineup an accessible core, while seasonal releases add rotation without changing the brewery’s historic role in the city.
Travelers in central Wisconsin often look for familiar regional beer experiences: lagers, approachable ales, local labels with long histories, and places that connect a town to its brewing past. Stevens Point Brewery fits that pattern because it offers continuity as much as novelty. The stop can appeal to visitors who want a straightforward lager, someone comparing Wisconsin brewery traditions, or a mixed group that includes people who are not drinking alcohol. The non-alcoholic side is not an afterthought in the known lineup; the brewery produces gourmet sodas, including Root Beer and Kitty Cocktail, alongside its beer and cider offerings. That range gives the visit a wider frame than a standard beer-only stop.
For practical planning, treat the taproom as the place to confirm the day’s pours, current seasonal releases, cider availability, and which non-alcoholic beverages are being served or sold during your visit. Specific amenities, tour details, food options, and hours are not listed here, so checking directly with the brewery before making a special trip is the safest approach. Visitors interested in the core beer range can look for Point Special Lager, Amber Lager, and Drop Dead Blonde, while those traveling with family or non-drinkers may want to ask about the gourmet sodas. The main reason to include the brewery on a Stevens Point itinerary is its combination of age, continuity, and varied production rather than a single limited release or a highly specialized tap list.
Established in 1857, Stevens Point Brewery holds the distinction of being one of the oldest continuously operating breweries in the United States. The Wisconsin facility produces a diverse portfolio that includes traditional craft beers, hard ciders, and non-alcoholic beverages. Core beer offerings feature year-round selections such as Point Special Lager, Amber Lager, and Drop Dead Blonde, supplemented by various seasonal releases. In addition to alcoholic beverages, the brewery maintains production of gourmet sodas, including Root Beer and the unique Kitty Cocktail. This varied production schedule allows the brewery to distribute both alcoholic and non-alcoholic products across multiple market segments.
