Flat Earth May Update

In case you haven’t yet signed up to be on Flat Earth’s mailing list, here’s their May update. Lots of fun going on both at the brewery and other sites.

Greetings,

We released a new beer at our anniversary party called Northwest Passage IPA. Here’s the official scoop on our IPA. It is made all Canadian malts and four great American hops, Simcoe, Cascade, Chinook and Columbus. It weighs in at 6.5% ABV and a tongue tickling 115 IBU.

Growler sales are now Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:30 – 6:30 at the brewery.

T-shirts and other goodies are available at Cafe Press.

Here is what is happening at Flat Earth Brewing Company this month:

On the 16th we have two events scheduled. We’ll be at the Brewer’s Bazaar in Stillwater Noon – 5pm, Water Street Inn, Stillwater and Beer Dabbler in Burnsville at 1 pm.

Slow Food MN Wild About You Foraging Dinner Sunday, May 17, 11 a.m. – 6 p.m.
At the Ralph Lentz Farm 32797 738th Street, Lake City, MN.

Due to being over booked we are moving our tour this month to the 22nd, Friday evening at 6 p.m. a great time to see the brewery and grab some growlers for the Memorial Day weekend.

Saturday the 30th we’ll be out at the Welch Village Beerfest and Comedy Show.

Looking into the crystal ball for June we’ll be at the Willow River Blues & Brews Fest on Saturday the 6th.

We hope to see you at the brewery and these fine events!

More Fermenters for Barley John’s

It looks like Barley John’s is expanding, at least in terms of the number of fermenters, although I don’t know where they’re going to find room for them on their concrete oasis. The fermenters are crated and making their journey from Soldonta, AK to Seattle, hopefully arriving in MN for an end of May installation. Yeah, more beer!

Beer & Brats

Nothing says summer grilling like that combination! The Cellar’s in Eagan is teaming up with their neighbor Von Hanson’s. Each week The Cellar’s will choose a beer and Von Hanson’s will make beer brats with it. Brats are made on Friday and sold on a first come, first serve basis. Last week the Moretti La Rossa batch sold out by Sunday afternoon.

So if beer brats are your thing, make sure to get to Von Hanson’s early in the weekend. This week they’ll be crafting the brats with Schell’s Dark.
