Ugh. This banner ad won’t do anything to impress folks in the Twin Cities. Crowntown may be visually interesting, but overall, it’s pretty boring, too… We hear their beer sucks, too. If the Twin Cities are lame compared to Crowntown, I’ll take lame any day…

Sometime I'll tell you about my grand theory that links craft brewing to punk rock. Just ask.
RIP Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson (the one we actually care about) has passed away. Lew Bryson has a nice piece about Jackson to share.
Town Hall Update: Wheat Pale Ale
Okay, this sounds like a goooood one… a wheat pale ale with Simcoe hops. Yum. Have I mentioned how much I dig Simcoe? Have I? Yum! Town Hall has it Monday…
Hey All,
Don’t let the cooler weather trick you, it is still wheat season. This coming Monday 8/27 we will release our WPA(Wheat Pale Ale)…..Simcoe hops. Also you really should check out our one keg offerings. Right now the Mango IPA is flying off the tapline. Next up should be Cherry Ambrosia.NOW ON SALE @ TOWNHALL BREWERY

Darkness: The Bike
If you ask me, Beachscrat should probably get free Surly for this one… he built up an old Schwinn Varsity and converted to a fixed gear drive train… no brakes, no gears, no coasting. He named it “Darkness” in honor of his favorite beer. “Which, much like my bike is strong, dark, really friggin’ heavy, and smoother than a Lexus (better gas mileage too).” Enjoy!
MNBeer T-Shirts are Niiiiice
I just got an order of MNBeer t-shirts in… man, they’re quite nice. I’d always been a bit skeptical about CafePress, but the quality is really good. I have one of the organic cotton t-shirts as well and it’s Downy soft, my friends.
Jeff, Eric, Mag & Kris… needless to say, I have your t-shirts. We’ll have to organize a time for beers and distribution.
