Nice little ditty at wcco.com swooning about the top 10 Minnesota beers favored by author Cole Premo. He admits the list is subjective and far from complete, but its a good conversation starter.
In no particular order, he suggests:

Three years ago, I put out a request for more writers. We had 2-3 writers at that time and I took on the bulk of the work. I was trying to maintain a taplist for local craft beer bars (which would be an absolute nightmare today), grow the site’s readership and introduce Minnesotans to the diversity of craft beer in their state. Lofty goals. In any case, Mag and Kris were amongst the very first to volunteer.
I caught their passion for local craft beer immediately. Like myself, they love great beer, love sharing great beer and don’t take themselves too seriously. They’re fun, dynamic and totally plugged into the craft beer world. For MNBeer, they worked tirelessly to gather local beer news & events while still finding time to drink beer with unmatched fervor!
Seriously, Mag and Kris, I thank you, MNBeer thanks you and the local craft beer community heartily thanks you!
We wish you well!
Prosit!
A votre sante!
Cheers!
Skaal!
Salud!

The brewery list keeps growing, with new ones added every week. The boys at Chop Liver, LLC are updating the “notes” section of their Facebook page weekly with the additions, and we’ll post here when the list is complete.
