Discover the brewing history of the Quilt City!

On the cozy river town of Paducah, Kentucky, local beer started flowing at the turn of the 20th century at the Paducah Brewing Company. Prohibition brought passionate temperance rallies and whiskey parades to the streets, but the city ultimately suffered a fierce defeat at the hands of abstinence and did not recover for almost a century. Luckily, hometown beer is again being poured at some historic digs in town, thanks to Dry Ground Brewing Company and Paducah Beer Werks.

Suggested beers when visiting: '37 Flood IPA (Dry Ground) and Behold a Pale Sloth Pale Ale (Beer Werks).
