Well, it would seem that 2/3 of the news on MN Beer is from Town Hall, but when you’ve got a quality brew pub continually putting out interesting beer and advertising it, what else can we do!

Here’s some more news from the local Hoops.

Hey all,
Just wanted to take a moment to thank you. It has become fairly evident over these last few months that you have become as excited about our beer as we are. Wednesday release days seem to have become part of your weekly schedule…and we like that!
We look forward to continuing our attempt to make Wednesday the best day of your work week by offering local, fresh, hand crafted beer at an alarming value (especially between 5 & 6pm on release days) as our thank you for your continued support.

****Saturday when the mercury hits 90+…Come on down and watch the United States play Italy in the qwest for the World Cup. (1:30 pm start)

****Also Sat.—We will feature a guest bartender during pint club hour. Who you might ask???? Let’s just say that we know you miss and love him and he came all the way from Asia to serve you your favorite beer

See you Saturday

P.s. Those of you that are into the U.S. Open…you can find that here too!

It’s Wednesday, new beer day at Minneapolis Town Hall Brewery. Here’s the skinny:

Wednesday is coming….I guess that means more beer! This coming 6/14 look for the release of our Mocha Java Double Brown Ale. Wow! Say that a couple times quickly. This is a great big strong brown ale aged on chocolate and coffee made by our favorite roasters…Peace Coffee. They set us up with their Birchwood Bfast Blend for this beer and I can’t wait. This will be a great sipper,dessert beer…I could go on- but really it’s beer, chocolate, and coffee how can you go wrong with that combo.
Cheers

Dawn stopped by Rock Bottom Brewery tonight both before and after an event downtown and after mentioning MNBeer.com was treated to a few samples on the house. Dawn’s notes mention hefeweizen, pilsner and maibock (transcribed as “my bock” but she’s only been appreciating great brews for the past year or so) as specialties. I’ll have to pry more information out of her tomorrow. In any case, thanks for the free beer. Breweries, brewpubs and bars, please note that the folks involved from MNBeer (and their spouses, as it were) will gladly drink your beer at no cost to you!

While we heard nearly the same news back in Feb 06, here is a fresh message from Dave Berg regarding Autumn Brew Review 2006.

Well, the wheels are spinning for the 2006 version of the Autumn Brew
Review. The date is Oct 7, 1-6 PM at Peavey Plaza.

We are *considering* having a special VIP tasting from 12-1 PM for those
interested in avoiding the crowds for a least an hour. Haven’t hammered
out the details yet, but I’ll keep you posted.

In addition, if anyone has any additional breweries they’d like to see
there, drop me a line. Keep in mind that they need to already be
distributing in MN.

Cheers!

Bandana Brewery has a two new brews available, Walnut Grove ESB and St. Clair Blanche. Perhaps it’s time for a (short) road trip to Mankato?
