Red Eye Brewing Company Wausau

Serving fresh craft beer and artisan foods, with a focus on local sourcing and sustainability. Our pizza dough will be stretched by hand, not by a machine.

Creative food....utilizing locally sourced ingredients whenever possible! Our pizza dough will be made to exacting standards, fresh every day from only flour, salt, water and yeast. No fryers - we opted to forgo these, so we can incorporate healthier options into our menu. Our craft beers are produced in small batches, by experienced brewers, using only the highest quality ingredients.

The end of an era has begun.

On Sunday, June 21st, we celebrated the life of Mark Koepke, who passed away unexpectedly on November 27th, 2023. He was an avid cyclist, traveler, lover of all things beer, coffee & art related. He has touched SO many people in so many ways - including us here at Red Eye. Mark was the owner of most of the bikes on the ceiling that he so kindly shared with us & all of you, bringing us a couple bikes here and there to change out throughout the past 16 years.

We aren’t 100% sure what their new story is going to be, but the bikes will slowly get new homes; leaving shadows upon us just like Mark left so much impact on all of our lives. One of the things that Tristan, Mark’s son, touched on during Sunday’s celebration was that his father was wanting to start a blog and share the different chapters of his life right before he passed. So that is how we are going to view it - it’s just another chapter. We are so thankful that he was apart of it.

🍻to Mark

Brewed with Amarillo lupulin, Centennial, and Simcoe hops, this IPA offers a robust hop profile with vibrant notes of citrus, pine, and a touch of earthiness. The addition of rye malt brings a spicy complexity that perfectly complements the hop bitterness. At 6.5% ABV, Just Rye'dn Along is a smooth and satisfying ride from start to finish. Hop on and enjoy the journey!
