Hey - I'll be in the area of Bloomington, MN, next week (Sun-Wed), and I need a place to drink good beer and eat good food. Whatcha got? Thanks.
Take the light rail up to downtown and visit me at HauteDish! Lots of other great places not too far from other stops like the Blue Nile and Zipp's Liquor. Mackenzie and Butcher & the Boar are both great options downtown as well. From the Metrodome stop you can easily access Town Hall and Republic both on "7 corners". Hope you have fun!
Being American Craft Beer week next week check out www.mnbeer.com. All sorts of great events going on around the cities. Craft Beer Week Events MN Brewery Specific Events
Yep, LRT to Mpls. From Bloomington it's easy. It used to be easy to suggest good beer places in town, now you basically just have to spit and you will hit a worthy spot.
