Check out Bemidji Brewing Company looking to start up a brewery in Northern Minnesota.

Following the lean start up approach, we hope to start our brewery with a pilot system capable of producing approximately 25 gallon batches, basically enough beer to supply 1-2 bar accounts in Bemidji. This system will be comprised of all the brewing kettles, fermentation vessels, and kegging equipment necessary to fulfill this initial demand. With our beer on the market, and concrete sales and demand information, Bemidji Brewing will then be poised to make the jump to full-fledged production brewery. A pilot brewing system is the first step towards our larger goal of providing Bemidji and Northern Minnesota with fresh, local craft beer.
