Staples Mill, Stillwater Mn info

Closed as of right now. Tap room license expired and not renewed. Public safety licenses expired.

I wouldn't count on them ever re-opening.

 

But their (bottled) beers were so tasty!

 

Awful beer, but every time I walked by the place there where plenty of people in there. This might be the first 'brewery' to close in MN since the Green Mill Brewpub on Grand ave. Think that was about '04-'05?

 

are you interested in going because it is hilarious? that would be the only thing worth going for, the comedy.

 

I like how their "Public Safty License" expired. Maybe the State took it away because it was unsaft to drink?

 

McCann's in St. Cloud closed a year or so ago. I was only there once. The beer was alright, but the food was some of the worst I've ever has at a restaurant. Think bad cafeteria food.

 

Staple Mills: the Ford Pinto of the Minnesota Brewing Renaissance.

 

more like daewoo.

 

Instead of Staples Mill just stop at Smalley's in Stillwater have the 666 wings.

 

So you're telling me stout of morning destruction is somehow even more .rar than it was before?! *heads out to nearest liquor store to camp out and buy out morning destruction*

 

Like......Dane Cook funny or Mitch Hedberg funny?

 

Definitely dane cook funny, sad funny. Does anyone know if their facilities are fully. Intact and might be an opportunity for another brewer to setup shop there?

 

But Dane Cook isn't funny, not even sad funny.

 

Certainly not haha funny but funny ib the context of saying, "hmmmmm, that's funny, i thought i was buying beer, not mud piss and bong water"

 

They didn't have a boiler, some sort of rule from the city or landlord. They bought their wort from someone else and just did the fermentation.

 

No they had a couple licenses with Public safety, the MCB for the brewery, the FMW to wholesale it, and IIRC their dept of Ag license expired as well.

 

I can't understand why a business that requires so much capital expense to get started would seemingly not even try to put out decent beer? Somebody lost a lot of money in this venture.

If downtown would let them get a boiler to move away from beign only a fermentation house, could be a good options for somebody- I know Blacklist wanted to be in Stillwater, and ol' Fyten from Stagecoach, Fyten Ales, etc has talked for years about being in the 'st croix valley'

 

a comedy of errors.

precisely.

 

I haven't had the "pleasure" of trying staples mills and haven't had stagecoach recently but from my experience that wouldn't be a huge stepup
