End of an era...wish I would've known, I would've made time to go by on my trip this summer.

It's a shame, I wish some other punks would take it over.

Any out-of-towners coming in for Darkness?

Not a lot of in-towners going from what I gather

You guys know each other, right? If Lindsey goes without me can she Uber home with you Justin?

Do not know Nivek.

And yes, Lindsey can definitely Uber with me, unless I bike, which I might, but I might not. I know that's not terribly helpful.

The drunkest band I ever saw was Lucero at the Triple Rock. Singer and bass player put down a bottle of bourbon during the opening band.

I'll be in Minneapolis this week. I'll be staying downtown (near US Bank Stadium). What breweries would yall recommend I visit during my time here? Preferably places easily accessible via Light Rail, or a not too expensive uber/lyft ride. I'm not too picky about styles, lean towards IPA's and sours/farmhouse, but am certainly open for suggestions.

Over in North Loop is Modist and Fulton, both worth visiting. Modist is all about the hazy hops and flavored stouts, with a few other styles, I think they have a fruited sour or two. Fulton I'd say is pretty standard, but solid and diverse enough, IPAs to saisons to lagers to stouts. North Loop is an easy light rail trip or bikeshare trip, or a long walk.

If you want to venture out of downtown, I'd take the Green Line, stop at Surly and then head on to downtown St. Paul to check out Barrel Theory.

Get the Hog Frites at Surly for food.

Wild Mind Artisan Ales is good for sours & farmhouse ales but a bit far for public transportation, could Uber/lyft there.

On my visit last summer, we hit Barrel Theory and Wild Mind, both of which I would highly recommend.

Barrel Theory had a fancier/more lively downtown vibe and has the hype hazy IPAs (not sure if other offerings are hype now as well, a year later).

Wild Minds had huge oak foeders you could look in upon, and a more laid back/neighborhood (green space for kids and dogs)/food truck vibe with interesting saisons, fruited AWAs, etc.

Both were excellent/will be on the return visit list.

I've also enjoyed the packaged offerings of the recommended Fulton and Modist, if you find yourself in a store and looking for something to take to the hotel or home.

Great! I'm going to a Twins game during my trip, so I'll make sure to hit up Modist and Fulton before the game.

 

[sacrelicio]

Almost forgot Town Hall, which is also right off the Green Line but also an easy walk from where you're staying.

Green Line Tap Tour: Modist/Fulton -> Town Hall -> Surly -> Barrel Theory

When do you arrive/leave? Fairstate is another great option as is Blackstack. I might be free to grab a drink or two if you’re looking for a drinking partner.
