Vine Park is kicking off Oktoberfest and will be selling growlers of it starting at 3:00 pm today. In addition, they’ll offer Rabid Penguin Porter and if you’re lucky you’ll be able to score one of the few Walnut Brown Ales left. Unfortunately for you hefe lovers, Bavarian Hefeweizen is gone for the season.

The Flat Earth Crew
Town Hall Brunch
Sorry for the short notice, but tomorrow is our first brunch of the year. We will open at 8:30am and serve our regular brunch buffet with omelets and a new carving station. Those going to the Gopher game (starting @ 11:00am) you can take our complementary shuttle to TCF Stadium. Busses will start moving 2 hours before the game.
If you’re not going to the game, Brunch shouldn’t be overly crowded tomorrow. Please come and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere with great food and a couple of beers.
Cheers,
Pete
