Yield of Dreams, a lager brewed with corn from across Iowa, is returning with hopes of making an even bigger splash. For the second consecutive year, the Iowa Corn Promotion Board has partnered with Confluence Brewing, the Iowa Brewers Guild and Choose Iowa to bring back Yield of Dreams.
Eighteen farmers from across Iowa, two from each of the Iowa Corn crop reporting districts, supplied the corn that brewed the 2025 Yield of Dreams. Each farmer donated roughly 1.25 to 1.5 bushels of corn totaling 12 bushels, or nearly 672 pounds of corn.
The Iowa Brewers Guild is the not-for-profit trade association of professional brewers of beer and cider in Iowa, representing more than 100 member breweries in the state. Yield of Dreams will make its return at the 2025 Iowa State Fair on Aug. 7 before venturing to taprooms across Iowa on Aug. 18.
