Brewing TV and Stanley’s Northeast Bar Room are teaming up to bring you some free beer! Tonight, BTV will premiere their newest episode featuring Lift Bridge Brewing Company. The good folks from Lift Bridge will be on hand to present a cask of their Hop Prop IPA. Your first pint is on the house! Just stop by the BTV table for a ticket and have one on Stanley’s and Northern Brewer (Brewing TV’s sugar daddy). Event lasts from 7-9 p.m.
It’s a great night to drink some Great Lakes! Tonight the Groveland Tap will be featuring a very rare cask of Nosferatu, winner of best of show at St. Paul Summer Beer Fest 2010. They will also be tapping a keg of Lake Erie Monster and a Great Lakes Pub exclusive offering, Market Street Wheat.
So what’s a good brewery-warming gift?
Steel Toe Brewing in St. Louis Park will be selling their first growlers Friday night from 6:30-8:30pm. They’ll have growlers of their first beer, Provider, available for purchase. From the website:
Provider is brewed to be light and refreshing with a slightly sweet malt flavor and floral hop aroma. Unfiltered to bring out the subtle flavors in this glorious brew. Let Provider take care of you for a while.
Assuming you’re not one of the people who doesn’t abuse the word “epic” (and “fail” for that matter), I’d like to invite you out to a little tasting at Heritage in Maplewood tonight. Read on.
In the last year, the new breweries that have entered into the Minnesota market have put our state in an enviable position for what we have available. On most of those lists, the most recent addition is Epic Brewing out of Utah, which was founded shortly after Utah lifted restrictions on alcohol content in 2008. They are the first brewery in that state since prohibition to exclusively brew beers over 4%ABV, brewing their first batch in March of 2010. Among the many awards they have already garnered, earlier this year they made the RateBeer Top New Brewers in the World in the #3 spot. From 5-7PM this Thursday, the 18th, we’ll be tasting out a few of their offerings to see what they’re all about. See you here.
