For anyone that was planning to attend the Cask Ale Festival at Brit’s Pub tonight, please be advised that it has been postponed until Tuesday, March 13th due to weather. All reservations will be carried over to the new date.
**This is the same event that had been scheduled for February 28th but was postponed due to weather. If you had already made a reservation, it will be honored.**
Brit’s is bringing you the opportunity to sample cask beers from three Minnesota breweries as well as a cider maker and well-known Colorado brewery along with a hors d’oeuvre buffet.
We’re going to be sampling cask conditioned beers from five different breweries – Surly, Summit, Fulton, New Belgium and Crispin Cider. A number of these brews will be limited additions and you will also get the chance to chat to a brewer/owner/representative from all the breweries.
During the evening you will be able to self-pour each beer, allowing you to sample as often as you like!
Accompanying these fine offerings will be a delicious hors d’oeuvre buffet prepared by our Executive Chef, Mimi Coppock.
This event will sell out quick! Cost is just $40 per person (plus tax and tip). To reserve please email amarson@britspub.com or call 612 332 8011 x 128
Come for the party or if you have other plans for the evening, swing by in the afternoon to pick up a bottle, or two, or three.
Join the Lift Bridge Brewing Co for the release of our newest Limited Release beer. The Irish Coffee Stout will be available for the first time on tap and in 750ml bottles from the brewery. In addition to getting into the event, your ticket will get you a glass and a ticket for your first beer. The event will feature Live Music, Irish Toasts, Games and 750ml Bottle Sales.
About the Beer: It is inspired by the delightful combination of whiskey, coffee, and cream. You don’t have to be Irish and it doesn’t have to be the morning to enjoy this labor of love. Our Russian Imperial Stout was aged in whiskey barrels, then blended with a big Milk Stout, and finally infused with locally roasted cold pressed coffee.
The Tap Room will be open at from 1-4 PM. If you want to pick up a bottle and don’t want to attend the event, you can stop by from 1-4 PM to pick up your bottle for $12. Growlers and souvenirs will be available for purchase. Cash, check and most credit cards accepted.

Since I couldn’t describe it any better, here’s the details on tonight’s cask at Barley John’s, straight from the horse’s brewer’s mouth.
Tonight’s cask offering is going to be a variation of our Stockyard IPA – I kept 5 gallons of the wort last time I brewed and fermented that very special 5 gallons with champagne yeast. Last time I did that, with the Little Barley Bitter, the result was a somewhat Belgian-charactered version of the original: flowery, a little sweet, with fine bubbles and the slight sulfur character characteristic of a good champagne.
