It was Summit that introduced both of these cities to the idea of having a premium draft on tap. Saint Paul embraced this local phenomenon earlier than its bigger twin. The efforts of Mark Stutrud and crew opened the door for Surly, Rush River, Flat Earth, the Bull Dog, the Gnome, Groveland Tap and, now, the Blue Door (walking distance from my front door, finally!) Saint Paul is the Beer City, kudos to Summit, see you at the Blue Door. Oh yeah, Matt's invented the juicy Lucy and no one comes close.

Mpls + St Paul = TC! As a whole the Twin Cities is a great place for beer. Matts has the best Jucy Lucy anywhere, ever. I suppose that could change, but they are going to be hard to top.

I don't care who invented it; I'm just glad it's here. I'll also give the edge to MPLS. Beer bars I could argue either way but the brewpubs secure it for MPLS. Can't wait to check it out. @ Mag – I 2nd Matt’s. I don’t care who invented it; I’m just glad it’s here.
