This is cool. Stanley’s NE is taking over the old Stasieu’s location. They are planning on opening up on Saturday October 9th and will be featuring 32 tap beers and a full food menu. They have completely remodeled the place inside and out, and the only thing that will be still be in the building will be the famous urinals. There are plans to add a very large patio on the north side of the building that will have a fireplace as well. They will also feature live music on Friday and Saturday nights.
They plan to focus on Minnesota breweries and other midwest craft beers first and formost and will be rotating at least 5-6 taps per month.

When Corey at Hohensteins clarified to me that the “pile of stuff” he was sending to us was in fact a “$hitload” of events to post, we clearly underestimated the sheer volume of events. If you live near a bar or restaurant, it’s highly likely something is happening there in the days leading up to Autumn Beer Review this Saturday.
Whether a full fledged beer dinner or simply the tapping of a unique keg, you can find the full listing of events here. Please note that some of the events on the MnBeer calendar are duplicative.
Look for the ABR program, including tasting seminars and tours, to be posted soon.
