You ready? Available will be:
I thought you’d like that!
Another Friday and another excuse to play hooky…. head over to Grumpy’s Downtown for a cask Rush River Winter Warmer and free appetizers (smoked brats and Italian sausage!). Yum.
On Friday, Jan. 29th at 4pm, Grumpy’s NE will be tapping a cask of Bell’s Hopslam paired with Spicy Thai lettuce wraps. Then on Wednesday, Feb. 3rd at 5:30pm, The Bulldog NE will be tapping another cask of Hopslam as well as a keg of 2008 Bell’s Expedition Stout.
These are the last 2 Hopslam casks in the Twin Cities until Firkin Fest!
Maybe you couldn’t make it to Ngon for their BLT & Crosscut lunch today, but what about tonight? What are you doing for happy hour/dinner?
Cured Meats & Happy Hour Drinks
The best way to deal with the cold is good beer, food, and friends. Nothing beats a cold night like snacking on appetizers, beers, and having lively conversations. Mention “Frogtown” for happy hour drink prices tonight.
Features tonight:
Charcuterie Plate: House made 5 spiced elk sausage, Wild Acres duck confit, apple wood smoked bacon cured with anise & fennel served with pickled farmers market vegetables
Arctic Char: Wild rice crusted arctic char, black rice, grilled asparagus, carrots, daikon, in a bacon trout bouillabaisse
Roasted Pork: Five spiced Fischer Farms pork shoulder with lemongrass, fried buckwheat, sprouts, tomatoes, shiitake mushrooms, & scallions with a pork belly sauce
I’ll be behind the bar playing some reggae on vinyl to ward off the cold.
Cheers, Hai
As a reminder, Ngon has an all local tap selection and the happy hour pricing is $1 off.
If you’re looking for hump day lunch inspiration, look no further than Ngon.
I’ve been working on a new winter menu and have been running features over the last month. I just got done curing some bacon and will be running it on special tomorrow for lunch.
BLT & Lift Bridge Crosscut for $13
Apple wood smoked bacon, cured with anise & fennel, MN vine on tomatoes, lettuce, on baguette with house cut sweet potato fries
I forgot to post on our new cask: Summit Winter with English Fuggle hops
Cheers, Hai
