Peace Tree Brewing Co.

Peace Tree Brewing Company creates handcrafted, full flavored beers with a great attention to quality. Brewing great full-flavored beer is our passion, but we are also passionate about where we have come from and where we are going. As you might be able to tell, the name of our beers have connections to the places in our past, especially derived from memories and places in our community and our state. Our name, Peace Tree Brewing Company, is also a reminder, a prompting of our past where different cultures met to discuss, trade, and come to agreements. The Peace Tree is a historic grand sycamore tree that was located near the town of Red Rock under what is now Lake Red Rock. Supposedly the old sycamore was a place where Indians met for generations, then became a meeting place for fur traders. Indian treaties were negotiated here and there is some speculation that it marks the Red Rock Line. Our friend Dr. Robert Leonard pointed us to Iowa Archeological research document that gives more history. Our hope is that the beer made under the Peace Tree label will be a shared with friends and strangers alike and catalyst for conversations, new friendships and important agreements – in line with the lore of infamous Peace Tree of Red Rock.
