We only read it for the artic… er um… We only go there for the craft beer… and the wine… and the food… In any case, our friends from the Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild will be at Minnesota Monthly Food & Wine Experience once again this year. In addition to the Guild, I see Summit, Schell’s and Flat Earth listed as exhibitors as well as Midwest Homebrewing Supplies, Crispin, Bell’s, Boston Beer among the exhibitors. Apologies if I missed anyone. Check it out.
