They have a great collection to view - be sure to grab some of the pub grub before you go. Never dissappointing. More

What a find! $5 admission and it gets you a free beer. Very cool and interesting displays in an amazingly well restored brewery. And the restaurant and bar is good, too. I will be returning. More

In my travels I enjoy visiting small breweries across the country. With a recent visit to the Dubuque area, I did the 20 minute trip over to Potosi to visit the brewery. While the resturant and brewery are really great, I did not like the museum. We arrived shortly after noon so we decided to eat first and then take... More

We were from out of town and wanted to go upstairs for the restaurant but it was reserved for weddings (dissapointing!) but thankfully they left the little wine bar downstairs open.

We visited Potosi for the Brewfest. It was a really nice setting with the trees and the small stream running through the event grounds. The band was good, but rather hard to hear since they are separated from the booths. The day was hot so more shade would have been nice, but the grounds are well kept. There were lots... More

What a great museum! Run by the American Breweriana Association (read glorified beer can collectors) the modern museum in the old Potosi Brewery building is great fun. The collections are on loan from ABA members and rotated on an irregular basis. In addition to beer cans there are bottles, caps, openers, marketing materials, signs, brewery equipment and much more.
