MNBeer contributor and all-around good guy Jeff Halvorson and Tim Stendahl are putting on another couple of “Where the Wild Beers Are,” events, and one just so happens to be taking place at Stub & Herb’s in Minneapolis on Saturday, September 26th.

Problem:
For some unknown, unavoidable reason you can’t attend the SurlyFest celebration at the brewery on September 19th.

Wait a mere 48 hours and then head over to Tracy’s Saloon for the release of SurlyFest.

Gastro Non Grata 11, This time it’s sustainable.
We welcome Sea Change Head Chef Erik Anderson and La Belle Vie chef de cuisine Mike Decamp into the fold to pair their piscatorial and vegetal culinary powers with the foamy eccentricities brought forth by Tony Magee, owner of Lagunitas Brewing Co.
Our Musical guests will begin with the whimsy of the Twin Cities Ukelele Orchestra, The yodelrific Rope Trick will bring good times and heartache, followed by double duty Tony Magee, brewery owner by day, dirty acoustic blues player by night. After the blues get you down, Double Bird will flip you off and get your head nodding, then the Dynamiters will fill your prescription for dirty snotty riffy garage mayhem.
Before you leave, Raul Saud and Victor Cruzalta of Helados Y Paletas La Chiquita in St. Paul will quench your parch with a tasty frozen treat and Northern Brewer will be on hand with the Rye Kolsch we started at our last show and concocting a new batch of gastrobrew for later use. Our Dead Meat Door Prizes from the wonderful people of Clancey’s Meat and Fish in Linden Hills never fail to please. So if you have an excuse for not showing up, it had better be good and written in triplicate.
