Minnesota Thread

[Ungertaker]

I am currently in Belgium on vacation, thanks for screaming at my cousin. He has ptsd from Iraq, support our troops!

Keep in mind we have met before. You just didn't remember me because I wasn't worthy of a name-drop. So, unless you have an identical cousin, it was you (I'd recognize that goofy grin anywhere). Way to exploit our troops, jerk.

Per Todd's response on Surly's Facebook page to a comment asking if this year's Darkness will be bourbon barrel aged, both regular and BA Darkness will be bottled.

From Surly's Facebook page:
"We’re bringing back WET and this year we brewed TEN TIMES as much as when we first started wet hopping back in 2009. Our 2015 edition features 6,000 lbs of Simcoe hops from the Yakima region of Washington. WET will start hitting shelves in Minnesota next week and will be available in Iowa, Wisconsin and Chicago starting the following week..."

Last night in MN! Heading to Dangerous Man right now. Indeed is closed for a typical Tuesday night brewery wedding.

Any word yet on when BA Silhouette tickets go up for sale?

 

[Nivek43]

Haven't seen anything official yet, but I think they went on sale last year around December 21st (@noon?). So hopefully we'll hear word soon.

Thanks! I was trying to remember when I got tix last year. Anticipation is high again; love this beer.

Any Death by Coconut still floating around?

Sunday, Dec 20th at noon! Max of four each. Wasn't it two max last year? Looks like 1400 bottles again.

Yeah, they were 2 max last year. It's nice that they upped the max.

Anybody know whether a new batch of Abrasive will be released?

Welcome!

When it's ready

 

[imperial pale male]

Didn't ask when but rather would another batch likely be packaged. Thanks for the input though.

Reduced to max of 3 each but still better than last year. Anyone aware of Darkness on tap this next week? BA would be awesome to find but looking for either version. Coming in from Chicago area - hit me up if you're still looking for BCBS.

Coming to poop in your toilets here at the end of the week folks. Will be spending Friday night in Duluth, then heading down to the TC area Saturday through Tuesday. Anything spectacular going on for this Yooper, his fiancee and their 7 month old baby? Going to try and hit Dangerous Man, Surly and Indeed. My sister lives about a half mile from OMNI so this will be an easy tick.

Bent Paddle is so solid. Their line up is spot on, and damn if that Black Ale isn't extremely complex and satisfying. The Cold Pressed Black is a really nice variant.
Don't get all the nitro taps in the tap room tho...

That double shot double black comes out next week. Too much beer right now but I might have to go for a case.

I think it's a 2 bottle limit? That's the only thing keeping me from going up.

It's getting distro'd down here

 

[Dbijnagte]

Yeah, I'll probably end up trading for some more

 

[ilovestouts]

For the record:

I like Minnesota, and the people that reside in Minnesota. The beer is good too.

Todd dropping today! My 12-pack order is already in...

There are talks that they will be alternating between canning Todd and Abrasive regularly, making them complementary semi-year-round beers?

Seems like that's what's happening, and it's brilliant.

I hear there are talks that you have kegs of Todd delivered to you on the regular...

Man, this MN thread is far less industrious than the one at BA.

It's true. We used to have a private conversation going but none of us like each other anymore. We tend to stick to our Facebook groups now.
