Strib Picks up the Twins Roof Deck Story…

and the commenters want local beer! Surprise! It’s a pipe dream to think that some (maybe any…) of our local breweries could afford the same sort of sponsorship that Budweiser could take on, but on the same note, I tend to think that Budweiser cheapens Target Field a bit and distracts from the “uniquely Minnesota experience.”

And while bitching on the web can be fun, it’s not necessarily terribly productive. I would, however, encourage you to contact the Minnesota Twins and ask kindly for a selection of Minnesota beers at Target Field.

Surly Coaster Winner

The artwork has been drawn, the entries submitted and a winner has been chosen for Surly’s Coaster Contest! Who is it, you ask? That information will be revealed at Old Chicago in Eagan. If you can get there early, take advantage of their happy hour 3:00-7:00 pm for special pricing on beer and apps.

6/9 UPDATE – In addition to announcing the winner of the contest, Surly will also be pouring Bender, Furious and a pin of Ashy Cynic starting at about 7:00. Per Omar, “Let’s see the SE Metro represent!”
