You wanted local craft beer at the new Twins stadium? | MNBeer – Beer from the Twin Cities, Minnesota, Minneapolis, St. Paul and beyond


You wanted local craft beer at the new Twins stadium?

Hmm. Not sure if they’re listening. This doesn’t look terribly promising. Nothing says “ultimate Minnesota outdoor experience” like… uh… Budweiser?! Maybe not…

Target Field to feature Budweiser Roof Deck

This probably shouldn’t be looked upon as a final nail in the craft beer for having craft beer at the new stadium… Summit, Schell’s and Cold Spring lack the cashflow that Budweiser brings to the table, but something about having Budweiser as a prominent part of our new baseball stadium sort of cheapens things for me. I guess we can still hope for a little good beer at the new stadium. C’mon Twins… step it up a bit!

    Bummer. Looks like a cool deck though, and a great place to watch a game.

    Are they going to serve local beer at the new stadium?
    I certainly hope so.

    It scary to think what they would charge for a Furious at a ballpark.

    Scary, but craft beers are few… but there’s a ray of hope. The Metrodome currently offers Gluek’s and Summit on tap, and Summit is a sponsor of certain Twins events…
    Target Field really needs to have vendors selling local products.

    Even the new Yankee stadium has some beer woes. http://tinyurl.com/d7zhfl

    I believe there is a law that requires local beer to be served at all such sporting events.
