Our friends at Bemidji Brewing Company recently moved from Harmony Food Co-op’s kitchen to their own space at 401 Beltrami Avenue NW in downtown Bemidji. The brewery is now up and running and they’re working to get their taproom open soon. Right now it looks like they’re shooting for mid-July. Our new brewery is up and running which means we’ll be ready to open our taproom doors in mid-July 2013.  Watch their Facebook for progress and details!

Last week, Brooklyn Center City Council voted in favor of allowing production breweries to sell pints of their own beer in the city, so we’re finally opening up a taproom at our brewery! Starting today, Friday June 21, the new Surly Brewing taproom will be open from 3pm to 9pm.

You’ll be able to buy pints of Surly beer Thursdays and Fridays, from 3pm to 9pm, Saturdays from noon until 9pm and Sundays from noon until 8pm.

To kick things off, they’ll be pouring Hell, Furious, Cynic, Coffee Bender, Diminished SeVIIn, Schandenfreude, Pentagram and Smoke and we’ll also have cans of Bender and Overrated.

Also, check out this awesome time-lapse video created by local artist Adam Turman, who documented the making of his exclusive Surly Taproom print. They’ll have 100 limited edition copies of his print available in the taproom store for $20.
