'''Capital Brewery''' is a [[brewery]] in [[Middleton, Wisconsin]], USA.

It produces 24 distinct beers, of which nine are annuals, five are seasonals, and ten are limited release. Most are made using the strict [[Reinheitsgebot]] guidelines.

The company's brews have won awards at a number of competitions, including the [[Great American Beer Festival]], and [[The Great Taste of the Midwest]]. The brewery was awarded the distinction of Madison's Favorite Local/Regional Beer from 1998 to 2004 in the ''[[The Capital Times]]''/''[[Wisconsin State Journal]]'' Reader's Choice Awards. The company has received over 240 major awards in both domestic and international competitions in over 15 categories, and the flagship Wisconsin Amber beer has been available in cans since 1997.

Capital Brewery was named "America's #1 Rated Brewery" by the Beverage Testing Institute's World Beer Championships in 1998. The brewery was also rated #7 in the world at this time.

Capital was named the Grand National Champion in the 2013 US Open Beer Championship, winning six medals.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.usopenbeer.com/2013-u-s-open/ |title=2013 U.S. Open Medal Winners and Grand National Champion |publisher=US Open Beer Championship |location=Atlanta, GA |date=July 2013|accessdate=2016-12-23}}</ref>

Capital Brewery’s beers are currently distributed in four Midwestern States: [[Wisconsin]], [[Iowa]], [[Illinois]], and [[Minnesota]].

Capital Brewery has an indoor Bier Stube as well as a large outdoor Bier Garten (a.k.a. 'Middleton's Backyard') that is host to events throughout the year. One of the more popular is Bockfest, held on the last Saturday in February. Bockfest celebrates and ushers in the annual release of Capital Blonde Doppelbock, Capital's most highly decorated brew. Blonde Doppelbock has been awarded platinum six times in the past ten years at the World Beer Championships.
