Toppling Goliath Brewing is an independent craft brewery founded in 2009 in the town of Decorah, Iowa, by Clark and Barbara Lewey. What began as a homebrewing hobby quickly gained recognition within the local community and later across the broader USA market, thanks to the brewery’s high-quality IPAs and barrel-aged stouts.
Today, Toppling Goliath operates a modern production facility, employs several hundred people, and distributes its beers in over 30 U.S. states. Among their most renowned offerings are award-winning beers such as Pseudo Sue, King Sue, and Kentucky Brunch Brand Stout, which have earned a strong reputation in the craft beer world. The brewery has received numerous accolades at both national and international competitions, underscoring its commitment to quality.
What further distinguishes Toppling Goliath is its ability to balance consistency with innovation - ranging from experimentation with beer styles to the introduction of new products. The brewery stands as a leading example of a modern craft operation that values craftsmanship, creativity, and reliability in equal measure.
