Hmm. First local beer in plastic bottles? I dunno…
Flat Earth Brewing Company is pleased to announce that our beers will be available at this years’ Taste of Minnesota on Harriet Island. We bottled a limited amount of plastic 16 oz bottles that will be available at five of the eight beer venues. So when you head out to the Taste this year grab some Flat Earth and enjoy one of summers’ best festivals.
Check it out… Surly was rated #1 brewery in America in the latest issue of Beer Advocate magazine. Thanks to Trav for sharing.
Tonight, Bulldog NE will be pouring Bell’s Two Hearted ale on cask.
Unfortunately for me, I’ll be out of town for Flat Earth’s grand opening. Do me a favor, head over to St. Paul and enjoy some Angry Planet (great name for an organic beer) in my absense.
Summer is finally here! Is there a better reason to have a beer? We had a great time at the City Pages Beer Festival last Saturday and many thanks to all of you who stayed through the rain to drink some beer and have a good time.
Things are moving along quickly at the brewery. We are trying to keep up with the demand for both the Flat Earth Belgian and Element 115 plus squeezing in a few special brews that should be ready this fall.Mark your calendar for June 29th starting at 4 p.m. we will be having our Grand Opening! Finally, we will open the brewery for tours, you can pick up some Flat Earth gear and sample our newest creation,†Angry Planetâ€, an American Pale Ale made with organic ingredients. Keep an eye on our calendar for upcoming events and festivals.
