Thrillist Votes The Cellar Peanut Pub Best Small-Town Bar In Iowa
https://www.thrillist.com/drink/nation/best-small-town-bars-in-america
“Were it located in a big city in one of America’s best beer towns, Pella’s Cellar Peanut Pub would be a formidable presence elevating the beer scene. That’s because the place — with an aesthetic that marries the rustic tin-shed look with an ultra-modern tap system —
takes its beer very, very seriously, to the point that each of the joint’s pub tenders boasts a Cicerone certification. There’s a steady stream of hard-to-find beers from Iowa’s emergent brewery scene on tap (look for pours from Des Moines’ Confluence and coveted wares like King Sue from Decorah’s Toppling Goliath) and other Midwest destinations in addition to a best-of-the-best from across the country, all served up by beer lovers eager to convert even the most ardent lover of adjunct lagers into disciples of craft, with knitting, bingo, and live-music nights keeping things lively. It’s the kind of beer bar you’d expect to come across in a city like Portland, smacked into a small Iowa town. “

No Crap On Tap
Why do we only sell craft beer and focus on Iowa Craft Beer & Cider? It’s because we’ve met the small business owners and their coworkers.

Thank you for supporting our small business!
Changes Changes
While The Cellar Peanut Pub – Pella is thriving, The Cellar Peanut Pub – Oskaloosa will be no more in 2018.

Stay tuned for details of our next great adventure.
