Another 30 miles or so to the west and slightly north from Galena, right across the Illinois border and the Mississippi, on the banks of the same river is the small town of Dubuque, Iowa. I’ve been here twice and what I liked about this town is the industrial-age look and the red brick buildings and factories. It looks like this port town has seen its fair share of trade on the Mississippi back in its old days. To me, the brewery in the following pictures is an amazing and timeless structure.
