Midnight Howler Release at Town Hall
Midnight Howler returns to Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery.
Hey All,
This coming Monday we will release another fan favorite, look for the “Midnight Howler.” This coffee stout is made with freshly roasted 100% Fair Trade coffee beans from our friends at Peace Coffee just down the road. They roast a special blend for this beer, then bring it to us via bike delivery. We then use a cold press method to brew the coffee and finally introduce this rich and flavorful concentrated blend to our awaiting beer. Really a fine example of a hand-crafted beer, by many different crafts-people. Check out Peace coffee @ www.peacecoffee.com for further info…..and check out Town Hall’s Midnight Howler Monday 7/2 (release 5-6pm). Don’t forget the full growler(s) for that July 4th celebration.Cheers
Mike
New Summit Social Group Website?!
Hrrm. The site’s pretty slow, but it might have some interesting potential…
SUMMIT BREWING COMPANY LAUNCHES WEBSITE FOR THE LESSER KNOWN SOCIAL GROUPS:
And If That Didn’t Get Your Attention, Nordic Battle Reenactment May
ST. PAUL, Minn. – (June 22, 2007) – Summit Brewing introduces thesocialelement.com, a highly entertaining video-driven website that shows off the mad skills of the adventurous, outrageous, exciting, fun and obscure groups you thought may exist, but were afraid to ask.Thesocialelement.com is a web-based community project focused on the kinds of outside-the-box activities seen on the streets of Saint Paul, Minneapolis and beyond. They’re the activities that make you say, “Say What?†It’s the double-tall bike makers and riders, nordic battle reenactment “warriorsâ€, and the Lake Superior surfers who make thesocialelement.com what it is – a community of groups that share the common bond of passion for activities one wouldn’t ordinarily se! e or do . These are groups that are a force unto their own and are brought together at thesocialelement.com.
Watch for more content to come every week and follow the blog to know what is going on. Know of other group of interest or want to make your own beer movie? Pass it on to the social element.

Muddy Pig 5 Year Anniversary Party
I’m taking advantage of the free wifi at the cabin to give you a couple of updates… the first, Muddy Pig’s five year anniversary sounds like a blast. Unfortunately, I’ll be rolling back into the city that night, so I doubt I’ll make it… enjoy!
I know it sounds crazy but Paul and I opened the doors five years ago and it’s time to celebrate. This Saturday, June 30 all tap beers at The Muddy Pig will be half price (I never thought I would have to say this in the bar business but…) while supplies last. Yup, from open to close, all 32 tap beers including Summit, DT, Surly and even Miller Lite will be half price. Our way of saying thank you for five years of support. But please, let’s all be responsible and plan on taking a taxi home that day. I do.
See ya’ll Saturday,
Mark
