Where to Buy Toppling Goliath in Europe
Finding authentic Toppling Goliath beer in Europe is extremely difficult. The brewery distributes primarily in the United States. Consequently, European collectors must rely on specialist retailers with direct sourcing networks.
Wines & Spirits SA is one of the very few retailers in Switzerland and Europe to stock authentic Toppling Goliath releases. Therefore, every bottle is sourced through verified channels and stored in our climate-controlled cellar in Eclépens, Switzerland.

Toppling Goliath Brewery — The Story
Clark and Barbara Lewey founded Toppling Goliath in 2009 in the small town of Decorah, Iowa — population 8,000. Nevertheless, the brewery quickly developed a cult following that spread far beyond Iowa’s borders.
The brewery’s name references the biblical story of David and Goliath — a small, independent brewery taking on the giants of the beer industry. In addition, their commitment to quality over quantity has never wavered. Every release is crafted with obsessive attention to detail.
Today, Toppling Goliath distributes across 27 US states. However, their most coveted releases — KBBS, Double Barrel Assassin — remain nearly impossible to find outside the United States. We ship to Switzerland, France, Belgium, Germany, and worldwide.
