Beer at the Fair?

By on August 28, 2011in bars/restaurants, brewpubs

In the past few years, the Great Minnesota Get Together has begun offering more and more craft beer, and this year may be the best. Of particular note is the Ball Park Cafe, on Underwood Street outside of The Garden. Next to your standard macros and malt beverages are local offerings from Surly, Summit, Schells and Liftbridge and other top notch craft selections from Stone, Alaskan, Odell, Goose Island and Tallgrass. To find a particular beer, check out the Fair’s Food Finder. (Thanks gromit!)

    It’s an awesome addition to the fair. Nice to see more options this year. Grabbed a Tallgrass Halcyon Wheat when I was there on Sunday.

    Someone should have proof read the Surly signs as Tyler at Zipp’s pointed out here.

    All the Surly signs have been fixed. Some of the old ones must have been hanging around somewhere still.
