In order to celebrate Craig’s birthday, Groveland Tap is having a special 40th birthday party on April 18th including $5 forties (PBR, Bud & St. Ides… MNBeer readers’ favorite beers, no doubt 🙂 ) and more importantly, a firkin of Summit IPA. Tapping is at 5:00. Enjoy!
Edit: One firkin wasn’t enough for a 40th birthday, so they’re adding another… probably something from Bell’s. Drop in and wish GT’s manager Craig a very happy birthday!

Yup. That about sums it up. Wait…
Our Walnut Brown, an all grain version that is medium bodied with a mild hop profile that let’s the malt come forward with a slight coffee flavor.
Sounds tasty! I think I may have to send Dawn over after work some time to pick some up!
We’ll be adding them to the “breweries” page soon. I’m very glad to see these beer in growlers!
