Brand Heritage Peace Tree Brewing is a veteran player in Iowa’s craft scene, with a history dating back to 2009 and a track record of gold medal beers. This heritage supports opportunities to collaborate on regional distribution, co-branded promotions, and taproom events that leverage their recognized premium status and woman-owned identity.

Expanded Footprint The company operates taprooms in Knoxville and Des Moines and distributes to hundreds of stores, restaurants, and bars across Iowa and Nebraska. There is potential to expand wholesale partnerships, boost on-premise listings, and run joint in-store activations to grow market share in neighboring markets.

Awards & Prestige Gold medals for Get a Little Hazy and Blonde Fatale, plus a Green Brewery award, provide strong proof points for premium positioning. Use these accolades in sales pitches, sponsorships, and limited-edition releases to attract new retailers and drive consumer demand.

Strategic Partnerships Past collaborations with Foundry Distilling and cross-brand opportunities suggest openness to co-branded products and experiential campaigns. Propose bundled offerings, beer-and-spirit hybrids, or event tie-ins to expand cross-category sales and win shelf space.

Operational Readiness Although there was a period of paused production and office closures in 2024, the brand maintains a defined product lineup and active digital presence. This indicates potential for reviving and accelerating wholesale programs, reactivating Des Moines and Knoxville markets through targeted promotions and partner-driven campaigns.
