Iron, fire & four ingredients

In 1902 this building shod horses for the Duluth ore docks. Today the same brick walls hold our 15-barrel brewhouse, six fermenters and a lagering cellar kept at a steady 34°F.

Word at the bar

Regulars say it best

“Haze Craze is the only NEIPA I order by the case. Arrived colder than my fridge keeps it.”
Marcus T. · Minneapolis, MN
“Old Anvil tastes like the dunkels I drank in Munich. Pours a gorgeous mahogany, too.”
Ingrid L. · Madison, WI
“Bought the flight voucher for my dad. He did the tour, came home with a glass and six new favourites.”
