Minnesota Brewery & Brewpub Map

By on September 8, 2012in breweries, brewpubs

The Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild has their map, Minnehaha Media had theirs… here’s our map. Contract breweries aren’t listed – there’s no sense in sending you to an office with no beer. Breweries & brewpubs that have yet to open are marked in yellow. In-progress breweries listed are, for the most part, in the latter stages.

Oktoberfest Duluth

By on August 20, 2012in beer events, brewpubs

This year’s Oktoberfest Duluth takes place within the Tycoons Alehouse, Fitger’s Brewhouse & Burrito Union family of restaurants with special events at Tycoons on Sept. 21st & 22nd. We’ll have more information in the coming weeks, but for the moment, suffice to say that if things like sauerkraut eating, boot drinking & stein holding appeal to you, you might wanna’ show up. If not, perhaps beer pong, hammerschlagen, beer prizes, etc. might be your thing?

This year’s music will be by Chmeilewski Funtime Band, International Main Street Polka Band and Adam and the Jolly Jammers.
