It was founded in that city in 1867 by Jacob Leinenkugel and John Miller. Miller (no relation to Miller Brewing) sold his stake in the company in 1884.

During the Prohibition, the company produced near-beer known as "Leino" as well as soda water.

The company expanded from its local roots in the 1970s, introducing a light beer. Leinenkugel's became known for its craft beers, which it first introduced in the 1980s. Miller Brewing bought the company in 1988, and it is now owned by Miller Brewing, which is a subsidiary of SABMiller.

Leinenkugel's has two breweries: the original, located in Chippewa Falls, and the 10th Street Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which opened in 1995.
