Minocqua Brewing Company is a brewery in Minocqua, Wisconsin. The brewery was founded in 1997 inside a historic building on Lake Minocqua. In 2006, the brewery was expanded into a pub and restaurant. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the original building was sold and a taproom was opened, still located in Minocqua.

The business was purchased by Kirk Bangstad in 2016. The business developed a progressive political position, hanging a large Joe Biden sign on the building in 2020. The brewery has been involved in controversy, including initiating a PAC and being both plaintiff and defendant in various legal matters.

Minocqua Brewing Company opened a taproom location in Madison, Wisconsin in 2024.
