Here’s a story on the Four Firkins in the Star Tribune’s business section. Nice press.
Thanks, Dustin, for the reminder about the KSTP story. Brau Bros. was featured in a three-minute KSTP story. The Ms. Miles mispronounced Lucan, but Jason Davis nailed it. Brau Bros. gives “craft” a bit more meaning than your average craft brewery.
Schell’s will be celebrating its sisquicee…sesquitenn…squishytennial…it’s 150th anniversary in New Ulm this January 2nd with a Brewmaster dinner and a pub crawl. Check out this link to a New Ulm Journal story for more details. Dinner will be held at Lola’s Larkspur Market, starting at 6:30 (first come, first served tix! SOLD-OUT ALREADY!!!), and the pub crawl will begin around 8 P.M. and will hit…and probably destroy, eight of New Ulm’s local establishments. I don’t have any details on any streaking events nor if there will be riots afterwards.
The Journal story also has some future Schell’s events to make note of.
Dave, thanks for the heads-up!
Sesquicentennial
Hear ye, hear ye! Preston’s Urban Pub be tappin’ ye olde keg of Surly Smoke at 4 bells today, Thirstday, the 17th of December. $4 pints be available during the 4-6 P.M. hours of happiness. Huzzah!
In the first of many moves that will officially supplant Ryan from his position of power at MNBeer, thus allowing a new regime to take over and reap the many rewards, I post the following:
This Friday, 12/18, Grumpy’s downtown location will be offering a Rush River Winter Warmer tea-bagged (in the non-pwned manner) with Cascade hops. The tapping is at noon.
***Update*** Grumpy’s will not be doing any special tappings next Friday, 12/25, nor Friday, 1/1 as they’ll be closed due to the holidays.
