Last week kicked off Winter Carnival in St. Paul and if you’re looking for a place to grab a beer while you’re out and about partaking in the activities, check out Great Waters. As is their tradition, they have brewed two beers in honor of the Carnival. Vulcanus Red and King Boreas Imperial Wit are now on tap.

Beer Dabbler at St. Paul Winter Carnival SOLD OUT
Matt dropped us a line to let everyone know that the Beer Dabbler Showcase at the St. Paul Winter Carnival has sold out. If you didn’t get a ticket, try again next time at Highland Fest Beer Dabbler in July. They plan on introducing “Beer Class” and a list of new breweries to try. Until then…
breweries for you to try. Until then…
Schell’s Bock Fest
Schell’s is hosting their 24th Annual Bock Fest on 2/13 (11-4:30). The event is held on the brewery grounds and will be outside, so be sure to bring your own firewood and 50 gallon drum to keep warm. Anecdotally, the event is a helluva good time, but crowded.
On a related note, I received a e-mail stating that The Herkimer is going to be running two buses to Bock Fest again this year. I’ve been told that they do a fine job. $60 per person gets you breakfast at The Herkimer starting at 7:30 (but not entry into Bock Fest – that is a separate $5 fee). The buses depart at 8:30. Space is limited. Sign-up at the bar.
