Put one last hurrah in your weekend with a visit to Triple Rock Social Club Sunday evening to celebrate Surly’s 5th Anniversary.
The fun starts at 7:00, but if you want to ensure you get some Pentagram you might want to show up a little early. They’ll be tapping a firkin of Mild at 7:30 and also pouring AHA Rally Beer and Moe’s Bender.
Triple Rock Social Club
629 Cedar Avenue, Minneapolis
Celebrate Surly’s 5th Anniversary at Grumpy’s NE with a firkin of Mild ($2.50 pints), Pentagram and Moe’s Bender.
For those living in the Twin Cities, getting to and from Bockfest is probably the determining factor in attending or not. The Happy Gnome and St. Paul Jaycees offer you an all-inclusive option.
The Saint Paul Jaycees are heading to New Ulm for Bockfest, and you can ride along. Bockfest is an outdoor festival which celebrates Schells Brewery and their Special Fest bock beer. There is a fire, food, and many other beer-lovers. The Happy Gnome has partnered with the Saint Paul Jaycees to sell tickets and provide breakfast. Your ticket includes a round trip bus ride to New Ulm departing from The Happy Gnome, entrance to the Bockfest on the Schell’s Brewery grounds (YOU MUST BRING YOUR ID!), some Schell’s beer to drink during the ride, prizes, trivia, and entertainment You will need to arrive at The Happy Gnome at 7:30 am for breakfast with the bus leaving promptly at 8:30 am. You will return to the Gnome around 6 pm (leaving New Ulm at 4 pm). Tickets are $60 for a day of fun.

For those of you that have been to Firkin Fest at The Happy Gnome before, make sure to take note of some changes that are being made to the event this year.
This year we will try to push up the number of Firkins to over 70. We are limiting the number of people and having a set entrance fee (so once you get in, you sample the beer you want and don’t worry about tickets or such). We want you to come experience some amazing one of a kind beer.
Tickets on sale March 1st via our website. $35 for regular entrance (1-5), $45 VIP (enter at noon!). Once the beer runs out, the beer is gone, so first come first serve. Should be plenty of beer with over 70 firkins (so with 9 imperial gallons in each firkin…)
Looking forward to having some fun, rain or shine. Tickets will not be refundable.
