If you’re looking for the ultimate in beer, wine, and delicious food then look no further than downtown Chippewa Falls.
Beer
We’re the home of Jacob Leinenkugel’s Brewing Company and have all things Leine’s, including the Leine’s Lodge; the first stop in the beer experience of Chippewa Falls. Take a tour of the brewery, taste fresh samples, and shop the merchandise! The next stop is Brewster Bros Brewing Company and the Chippewa River Distillery on River Street. Boasting the “Second Largest Brewery” in Chippewa Falls, this place is doling out great beer and spirits by the glass full! Try one or try them all, you won’t be sorry! After these two stops, head a little north to try some samples at Bloomer Brewing Co. As an added bonus they have plenty of live music and events to enjoy throughout the year.
Wine
With many local vineyards and wineries turning out the best the Chippewa Valley offers, we’ve got the winos covered too. Start with a tasting at River Bend Vineyard and Winery on their beautiful patio overlooking the vineyard. Then hop on over to Autumn Harvest Winery and Orchard. A bit of a drive, but well worth it. They have amazing, local wines that are sure to please. If you head just a few minutes south, you’ll find Infinity Beverages Winery and Distillery. Not only do they have an amazing selection of wine, but they also distill vodka and whiskey! Everything on the menu is worth a taste in their comfortable tasting lounge, and for the ultimate experience make sure to go at a tour time! And finally, enjoy the views as you travel to O’Neil Creek Winery, near Bloomer, WI. They make delicious wines without the grapes – try beet wine, blueberry, cherry, cranberry, pumpkin spice, and more!
Food
And let’s not forget to fill our stomachs before filling them with delicious wine and beer. Chippewa Falls is a foodie’s dream! From great steaks and fish frys to sandwiches and Thai, we’ve got something for everyone. Enjoy an Angus steak with your brew, all without leaving downtown, at the Wissota Chophouse. If you prefer something a little spicy, give Max’s Bistro & Bar or TemptAsians a try- both local favorites! Lastly, we would be doing you a huge disservice if we didn’t mention our two fantastic Supper Clubs – Connell’s Supper Club or Wissota High Shores Supper Club. Both are serving up the classics drinks like old-fashioneds + grasshoppers as well as fantastic steaks + fish.
