“Wicked Wort was a cute place. The bartenders were very pleasant and the space was very big! Lots of seating options. I dabbled in the IPAs and wasn’t overly impressed but they could’ve been a lot worse. The AI-IPA wasn’t as hoppy as I was expecting.“
“I live in the neighborhood and have come for trivia a few times now. The tacos and nachos are delicious. I went specifically to try the Serrano Dona Fria Mexican Lager and was NOT disappointed. They also sell “You Betcha!” thc chocolate and their own thc seltzers. Excited to have them in our neighborhood and will be back for the Serrano!“
“It was a pleasure to meet Joe! Despite everything being full of hate, "America" I was delighted to have Joe as my server, and he was marvelously amazing! Let's get out of our comfort zones and say hi, hi, greet, and simply be kind to each other! My partner Brian and I are following Joe's footsteps.“
“Forgotten Star has become one of my favorites. A good selection of good beer, dog friendly, and a great space. Having both indoor and outdoor spaces with ample social distancing is super. Plus bocce, and rumors of curling this winter. And a food truck dock too!“
“As the name suggests, this place is all about being social. You definitely want to come with a group. My party of two stopped by on a trivia night and, even with the host on the loud speakers, I'd say the sound split was 55/45 in favor of guest chatter. Nicely varied selection of drinks, and the food truck has a solid burger. Tots were a bit over seasoned for my taste.“
“Great ambience!!! Fun space and not too busy on a Saturday afternoon to bring my boys! Beer was great! Many different Pilsners to choose from! And some good N/A options for the kids. Fun and friendly staff and added bonus of a parking lot!!“

“It's one of my go-to spots whenever I'm in Minneapolis. The atmosphere and service are standard brewpub. Good, but nothing out of the ordinary.Food is solid, mostly standard bar food, but it's well done with the cheese curds being noteworthy.The beer is definitely the highlight, there is a wide variety of well executed styles with the big barrel aged beers being some of the best in the state.I've been several times, and I'm sure I will be back next time I'm in Minneapolis.“
“An interesting selection of beers and a (blue raspberry) hard seltzer! Friends told us the flavors rotate regularly so you can try many different types of beers on repeat visits.Our group tried:Apple pie sourVacationer wheat (pineapple, mango, coconut)Hazy IPARice lagerWould have loved a cider option.“
“Wham Bam thank you Falling Knife! If you want a brewery that everyone knows your name, this is the place to be. A ton of regulars who aren’t degenerates. There are so many small events going on weekly like Trivia Mafia, Magic, T-wolves pod cast, pinball tourneys and and and… big events are so cool with live bands and random food trucks to your liking. WRECTANLGE PIZZA truck is a permanent year round truck that serves up Dee best pizza in the twin cities!The staff is enjoyably attentive, charismatic and friendly to the pour (don’t tell the manager?)I love this low ceiling, small concept atmosphere because of the patrons who visit. The service with a smile…The Beer! Tom… the master of the universe and master brewer has a fantastic variety and outstanding standard to every beer he crafts! “Verbal Tip” is my favorite hazy beer, like ever! Hops, lagers, dank, fruity, warm comfort styles of beers make up the list along with THC drinks, slushes and some kind of bitters thing on a belt ?Come here and have fun! Let loose! Be free and don’t drive drunk!I’ll see you here ?“

“ABSOLUTE FAVORITE place for great "pals getting together" atmosphere with excellent service and satisfying options for everyone. I love the big variety of ciders too! I previously thought I didn't like cider and now I love it!“
“Great brewery! Tasty beer, friendly staff, large and comfortable space. I really like the overall atmosphere, and it's in a cool and convenient location. They also host various events like cribbage and trivia and have rotating food trucks. It's a great place for meeting up with friends and I'll definitely be back!“
“We recently enjoyed the the Köld Kolsch from Fair State. We do like our kolsch beers and we enjoyed this one fairly well. It had all the features and highlights like a kolsch should. With this beer the flavor highlights are crisp ,clean, bready and some presence of graininess.It was a very refreshing beer and one that we liked quite a bit as the heat of midsummer cranked up a few notches when we enjoyed this Kolsch a few weeks ago.“
“We walked inside and there was a long line for the bar. It was well lit and people were sitting at tables enjoying their drinks. The drink list was projected onto a wall. The bartender was friendly and joked with us as she was taking our order. We made it just in time for happy hour which is a great deal and I highly recommend it. Our beer was good. I had "I'm over Dry January" which was strong, dark and delicious. My husband had "somebody had to say it" which was a fruited blond ale which he said was good. We sat in the tented area on the patio. There were quite a few people - families, groups of young and older people, couples of all ages and lots of well behaved dogs. It was definitely a place we'd go back to.“
“Uhhh this is my favorite brewery EVER. Hands down. They really know how to make beer. Always a ton of options to choose from no matter the season. There is always going to be a beer for somebody's palette. I am OBSESSED with their milkshake IPAs and milkshake sours. In fact, I love their sours in general. I typically don't like other place's sours, but LTD's are legit.“
“By far one of my favorite breweries in the Twin Cities!! The staff is amazing. They have a great variety of food trucks. Comfortable taproom alongside a great patio (the patio gets covered with an event tent and heaters in the colder months). Great free bingo and trivia having great prizes. And of course the beer is amazing. I strongly suggest trying the Ben's Minnesota Martini olive beer.“
“We visited Headflyer yesterday during the Johnny Athletic podcast recording. Packed house. Our first visit to this brewery and we were impressed. Excellent beer. I had the Feel the Flow Golden Ale. A great choice for me. My wife enjoyed the Root Down. Friendly staff. Nice size parking lot.“
“A brand new brewery! I went on 10/15, and was told that they opened 9/30. They have a good core of 4 beers on tap already; a cream ale, Oktoberfest, stout and blonde. According to the signs, they are looking to expand their tap list with an IPA, a hazy and a hefeweizen in the newr future. The staff was awesome, the beer tender was friendly and charismatic. The taproom itself is quaint, even if a bit crowded. But they did have a tv with the Vikings game on! There is a shelf unit with several games and another with their merch. Merch was shirts and baseball caps and beanies. The beer was decent and I am excited to go back once they work the kinks out of their process and introduce more beer styles!“
“Venn is one of South Minneapolis' great breweries! The space is nice and large and has a great outdoor option as well! Always plenty of seating. They host trivia once a week as well. Solid lineup of food trucks and you can bring in food or have it delivered. Their beer is solid. If you are a sour person I HIGHLY recommend you check out Venn. They also have a great coffee shop in the mornings if you're looking for a early pick me up. Staff is friendly, atmosphere is great!“
“The beer is very good, and it's one of my favorite tap room venues in the city. It's in an old factory (plane wing manufacturing?) with the cranes still in the rafters. Fantastic semi-covered outdoor space, cornhole/bean-bag toss, several tables, and an overpriced food truck.Update several years later: still one of the best atmospheres in the metro. Family and dog friendly. Open air, huge patio, great food trucks.“
“Insight Brewing and Taproom is a large, expansive, local taproom, with polite and friendly staff behind the bar. There are lots and lots of seating options, including a suedo "living room" showing movies, long "Munich Oktoberfest" style high-top tables, bar stools at the long and curving bar, and a number of intimate booths and cubbie areas to snuggle up with your "significant other".Insight has a large parking lot located on the West side of the facility, and is convenient in location being just a couple of blocks west of 280.Atmosphere is down-home comfortable, with a good mix of ages throughout the taproom. Great vibe! Dogs are certainly allowed, and there were many of them present last night. The taproom offers a wide variety of beers on tap, including 6 - 7 THC seltzers and limited release collab beers. There are also a couple of kombucha and soda NA options.Only downside for me last night was the strong smell of cleaning fluids wafting throughout the brewery. Granted, I showed up approximately 1.5 hours prior to closing, so the staff was cleaning up prior to close. But it was a strong smell just the same, and messed up my taste of the otherwise delicious beers I had there last night (I tried the Level Up, a classic American Pale Ale and their Night Shift - a delicious, heavy, dark and semi-sweet porter). In terms of the cleaning smell, I am thankful that they ARE cleaning the taproom with the strong chemicals! Good health for all!Overall, great experience at Insight!“
“Stopped by here with a friend for a couple drinks. Hadn't been here yet. Located in the industrial area of SLP, there was parking in the lot and it was already pretty busy at 5 PM on a Friday. We sat at the bar. Its a clean and lively place with a jovial atmosphere. The staff was super friendly and helpful in recommending beers based on your tastes and preferences. You could tell they get a bunch of regulars and they had a really good amount of people that stopped by to pick up and restock. Started off with the Czech Pils. Had their sour (Sissel) next. Wanted to try their EBS (Extra Bitter Special). It was yummy so got that to end our evening at Steel Tow Brewing. All the beers were great. Very tasty. The ESB was so good that I had to get some to go for home. Like other breweries in town, there isn't a kitchen and you can't really get any food other than some bar snacks. They did have a food truck outside that you could pick up stuff from and bring it in if you so desire. We had a fun time with the delicious beers and will be back to try some of the others“
“Good beers with healthy pours and chill bartenders. Delicious Greek food is just a few clicks away, you can order it right on your phone using the QR code provided. Several TV's and a nice big projection screen so you can watch the local team of whatever the current season is break your heart live, in real time, right here with the whole gang. And if you don't like the sound of that, then you don't like Minnesota and you can take it elsewhere, buddy. ?“
“Have been to many microbreweries over the years and have never seen one as unique as this one. Being a sci-fi fantasy fan myself, I really appreciated the decor with nods to Tolkien and Monty Python's Holy Grail. Custom artwork on t-shirts and wall hangings is very well done! There's darts, frisbee, painting groups, live music, and many other interesting things to see and do here. Really like all the little cubbyholes too. Sampled a flight and enjoyed the full flavor and creaminess of the Baltic Orc Porter so much, I HAD to pickup some for home! Excellent, knowledgeable staff and the owner walking around chatting with customers was nice. Three dollar discounts for growlers on Wednesdays too. Loved the original names given to the brews as well. Most likely will become regulars and will definitely be back.“
“The beer can be hit or miss in my experience, for the cost especially if can be disappointing... Usually it's at least decent but have had a few beers that have made me just want a macro instead. Happy to have them here though, what a location and bike friendliness is so appreciated. Always worth supporting.“
“#9 on our Hundreds of Hops Tour Walk in as a stranger & quickly find yourself surrounded by new friends. True of both staff & patrons... that's how I'd describe our 9th stop. After a brief run-through of our likes, suggestions were made & well-received. These guys had solid beer selections on top of being quite welcoming. We talked about where we've been, exchanged social info & closed her down. We weren't rushed out the door at closing, there was a game in the final minutes, after all. We thoroughly enjoyed the stop, wrapping up the night on a 5 star experience and 4.75 stars on the beers, rounded to the nearest number. We've already made meet-up plans for next time!“
“It's such a great place with amazing beer and Bear Paw pizza! Stop on in, and grab a drink. They offer beer, seltzer, and thc seltzer regularly, plus they now offer wine on weekends! Love their Melt and the Shandy on tap currently (4/27/24 posted)“
“Broken Clock was great! They had some tasty beers, including one of the best blueberry beers I've ever had. They also serve Mexican food in-house which was nice - many breweries don't serve food. We tried the tamale of the day and the nachos, which were very good. The space was cool inside and they have a wonderful little play area for kids which works perfectly for our stage in life. Would definitely go here again!“

“Was our second visit. Good previous experience. Table available quickly.Very good beer selection, a number of fun things that you can't pick up from liquor stores.Food was appropriately priced and very quick to be served, even considering being moderately busy. The pickle pizza was great!Had a pretty crabby server upon being seated, killed the vibe a little bit. Multiple interactions with her were not particularly positive.“
“I recently had the pleasure of celebrating a friend's birthday at LynLake Brewery, and I must say, it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The staff's courtesy and professionalism were exemplary, making our celebration seamless and enjoyable.From the moment we arrived with our birthday cake, there were no issues or hesitations from the management, which made us feel incredibly welcome. The atmosphere was lively yet cozy, perfect for a gathering of friends.One of the highlights of the evening was the quality of both the food and the beer. The menu offered a diverse selection of delicious dishes, and the beers on tap were fresh and satisfying. It was evident that LynLake Brewery takes pride in offering a top-notch culinary and drinking experience to its patrons.Overall, I highly recommend The Lyn lake Brewery for any occasion, whether it's a casual night out with friends or a special celebration. Their combination of excellent service, high-quality food, and great beer ensures a memorable and enjoyable time for all.“
“Went to the late show to see Dave Hill do comedy. Tried their sour on tap and it was delicious! Would have loved if the brewery itself, stayed open later after the show! Looks like a fun place to hang out and throw a few back. The space we saw the show in was intimate and quaint. Nice bartender.“
“Nice taproom, friendly staff, dog friendly, good lower ABV Hazy IPA, very nice lower ABV seltzers, food truck, convenient parking. What's not to like? We really appreciated the open feeling with all the windows letting the sunshine in. We'll definitely be back!“
“Such a fun environment and great beers! I was all about the Foggy Dew and then the Paddy's Premium (pictured) came out on St Patrick's Day and I've got a new fave!! Good, classic, forever delicious beers served by friendly and helpful staff :)“
“Unmapped is the perfect neighborhood brewery! Great beer, welcoming and open space, and bonus coffee shop connected! We love being able to walk to this brewery and often see friends and neighbors there. It truly is a staple in the community and a great place to gather!“
“We had an extended stay at the hotel upstairs and found ourselves at Finnegans every night, first out of convenience and quickly because we fell in love! The staff is awesome, the flights are solid AND lots of neighbors hang out there with their well-behaved dogs. A hotel bar with a local canine clientele cannot be beat, especially for weary travelers. We will definitely be back!“
“Visited Boom Island Brewing Company and Taproom for their Lord of the Rings Night and it was an unforgettable experience! The dedication to cosplay transformed the place, making it feel as though we'd stepped right into Middle-earth. The theme-appropriate music was the cherry on top. I was there for 5 hours, and even though I missed the trivia, I had a fantastic time. It's worth noting they host trivia every Thursday at 6:30 pm, which I'll definitely not miss next time. The atmosphere was inviting, their kombucha was delicious, and the Hana Bistro food truck was top-notch. Highly recommend for an immersive themed evening!“
“Stopped in for drinks with friends when the Black Market took place in their shared parking lot. I didn't even know this place existed, so I was glad to stumble upon it. I heard it might be closing, but I hope not because I would love to visit again.“
“Popped in a few weeks ago for a beer release. They have an event space off to the left when you walk in. The space is really bright and I appreciated there were a couple few bathrooms in the space so you wouldn't have to go out in to the tap room. The beers were delicious and the staff were friendly. They have a tiny parking lot but there is plenty of street parking. Thanks 56 for delicious beers, cheers!“

“Warm, lovely atmosphere. As a tourist, I felt welcome. The appetizers were delicious. The pizza tastes dirty. The hamburgers are a wow!The beer is unbelievably excellent. Service is wonderful. This is a place you have to stop by in Minneapolis Minnesota.“
“As far as I'm concerned, this is (with due respect to Summit) the O.G. of the neo-craft brewing scene in this city. Gorgeous room, with a second bar on the other side of the building. Nice selection of snacks. Most important, consistently delicious beer. Very highly recommended.“

“Ordered the light ale beers at the bar and they were awesome. You have to order the food separate at the food area. We ordered the snapper bowl and snapper tacos. They were AMAZING! One tip: cooks should wear hair nets because we found a long hair in our meal.“

“Freehouse located right in North Loop has a great patio! My two favorite menu items, dynamic duo drink and Brussels sprouts appetizer. Absolutely fantastic every time! We also tried out the cheese curds, wings and roto bird baguette, all were also very good. The two sauces with the cheese curds really level it up. Recommend Freehouse if you're looking for a good patio, lively atmosphere and consistent food/drinks.“
“Easily the best brewery in the Twin Cities (and surrounding areas). The (huge!) beer selection is unique and super flavorful. Lori is so friendly and has concocted some amazing beers. Beer connoisseurs must visit here. Ambience is also uniquely medieval. My top choice of breweries to visit in the Twin Cities Metro.“
“Went to Fulton Brewery for their Mini Holidazzle! I had the blueberry Fulton Narc (sparkling THC water) which was good. We also had nachos, a walking taco, and pulled chicken sliders. Everything was good except for the pulled chicken sliders, I would not reccomend them, we should have gotten the pulled pork sliders. The ambiance of Fulton was fun!“
“Settled in the center of a U shape configuration, Wild Minds created a beautiful family and dog friendly outdoor patio. Order a cold coffee, read a book and stay for one of their many tasty beers and THC drinks. Food trucks change regularly to mix up your tastebuds.“
“Surly Brewing Company is a hidden gem for craft beer lovers! I had the pleasure of trying their unique brews, including the refreshing En Agave La Vida and the citrusy Grapefruit Supreme - both absolute favorites. The highlight of my visit was definitely the brisket queso with avocado chunks and chips. The combination of flavors was out of this world - a perfect balance of cheesy goodness, tender brisket, creamy avocado, and crunchy chips. The atmosphere was vibrant and friendly, and the staff was knowledgeable and attentive. I can't wait to go back and sample more of their delicious offerings!“
“Fun fact - my husband and I had our first date at Pryes Brewing and later got engaged there! We have visited many time, the most recent being this previous Saturday for a drink with a few friends. We do appreciate their large selections for drinks, catering to those who are GF as we all those seeking NA options. The outdoor seating is always plenty, although less used during cold seasons. One thing that always happens is upon walking inside, there are a couple tables in the area people line up to order. So every time, you find people in one or two long lines waiting when there are staff just waiting and sitting around, not wanting to stand between the tables to order at the other stations. And I have never seen staff wave or call people over, instead standing around chatting or on their phones. They have expanded their space since we started coming, we often see couples, families, friends, and more using the space which is lovely. One thing that is a drawback that prevents us from visiting sometimes, is the parking. If you are trying to attend an event at Pyres, you will very well not find a parking spot unless you circle for an hour or park far away. Putting lines on the street parking along the curbs would be very helpful to maximize parking spots. Pros are for sure their large selection of drinks, they allow doggies (outside only I think), their location right off the Mississippi river, the space, the environment that is appropriate for families to first dates, and that they have lots of seating and food. Cons are the parking and long lines. Recommend to check it out (not during an event for the first time unless you Uber/Lyft).“

“This place is awesome!! The beer, the cocktails, the food, the service -- all amazing! In particular, the "Piggy Pie" is a must-get item any time I come here, it's so delicious. On my most recent visit, I got the special release barrel aged stout and wow was it incredible! The vibe is pleasant and casual, the QR codes for ordering at the tables are convenient and the staff is friendly. I highly recommend this place for pizza and drinks!“
