Side Pull may be gone, but you can still enjoy a crisp lager from our side pull tap—one that’s made with Saint Paul’s finest city water. That’s right: Pils is now on the side pull. 🤗

Side pull? What? Why? From Zach, our Innovation Brewer: Not only is this a traditional method for serving light European lagers, which is already cool enough, but it also creates a different drinking experience. These screened faucets essentially pour foam first and beer second—the result is a much thicker, creamier head of foam. Foam helps create aroma by volatilizing the flavor compounds in beer, and since much of our sense of taste is based on aroma, it also creates a fuller flavor. If you’re well-acquainted with Pils, come try it on our side pull tap and experience the difference for yourself.

Greetings from Minneapolis! 👋🌆

We're releasing Greetings from Minneapolis, an export IPA, for #NewBeerThursday. For those unfamiliar, an export IPA is a hoppy beer designed to maintain freshness better than traditional IPAs, making it better suited for transport and storage. If you've never heard of this style before, that's because we just made it up.

This beer is a medium-bodied IPA with notes of lime, mango, peach, and blueberry. It's a bit like a radler made with Party Forward and Hawaiian Punch. In a good way. Stop in this weekend to try it, and take some crowlers home to try later so you can experience the magic of an export IPA. —Zach, Innovation Brewer

Help us clear space in the cooler! We fill crowlers every Thursday, which means they are BOGO on Wednesdays. That's right, buy one get one FREE.

Today that also includes to-go pouches of Piña Colada Fruitybooms. 🤗

Stop by the taproom on your way home from work or enjoy a pint and grab a couple on your way out.

Snag this bottle pack for just $26—that's $2 off each bottle of three funky brews. A perfect gift for any beer lover or just to mix things up this weekend!

I’M NOT CRYO, YOU’RE CRYO!
A dry-hopped mixed fermentation wheat beer, brewed with spelt, raw wheat, and Citra, Simcoe, and Sabro Cryo hops. Tropical, light, funky, and fun.

RE-BILLIONIZING
A blend of barrel-aged saison and fresh wort, fermented with our favorite saison yeast and our house mixed culture, and then dry-hopped and naturally conditioned. Brewed with oats, wheat, spelt, and a hefty dose of European hops, it is zippy, funky, bone dry, hoppy, and ideally suited for all day, every day drinking.

LICHTENHAINER
Smoked beer is an acquired taste. So is sour/funky beer. We’ve acquired those tastes, and as a result we present you this Lichtenhainer. A 100% barrel-fermented, 100% beechwood and oak smoked malt sour wheat.

Alpine Lager is a made up style, but we think we nailed it anyway.

This GABF 2021 medal winner pairs over 100 pounds of Duluth's finest spruce tips (hand-foraged by Fair State staff!) with lemon balm, layered over a crisp, quaffable lager.

Stranger in the Alps is a perfect lemony and bright beer for this time of year. Find 4-packs in MN, WI, TX, SD, ND, MI, OH, CA, and NYC. → link in bio

Squares or triangles? 🍕🍺 In the upper Midwest, we cut our pizzas into little squares, also known as the Party Cut pizza pie. Typically one finds this masterpiece of cheese and preserved meat at the corner bar, burned to perfection in a diminutive oven on the back bar.

Party Cut is our newest IPA pairing a "thiolized" yeast with a ridiculously tropical blend of Cryo Pop and Talus hops. Brewed to celebrate and uplift one of our legitimate contributions to world cuisine, it's perfect to pair with a Heggies pizza at the taproom or at home. Find 4-packs in MN, WI, TX, OH, SD, ND, and CA. → link in bio
