ASAHI BEER USA | OCTOPI BREWING Waunakee, Wisconsin
From Local Brewery to Global Brand - Right In the Tanks ABOUT ASAHI BEER USA / OCTOPI BREWING Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi - brewers of Asahi Super Dry - acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility. We continue to brew/batch many styles of beer, seltzer, and soda in addition to Asahi Super Dry. Our cellar department alone is 30 brewers strong, running production around the clock across five shifts.
