Brewery recommendations for Minneapolis

https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/18563/89958/

See if you can buy a bottle of the above

 

Regular stouts or imperial stouts? The "BA stouts" note makes me suspect the latter.

Surly, Sisyphus, Town Hall, Dangerous Man, Indeed, and Fulton, all within a few miles of downtown Minneapolis, are above-average breweries known for stouts (and more so imperial stouts), to one degree or another. That would be roughly my order of recommendation.

You should be able to find this Summit 'Dark Infusion' at downtown Minneapolis beer bars.

you might find bottles from the above brewery, they brew smoke beers and some barrel aged stuff.
I am not sure were the good bottle shops are near the convention center

 

Republic is a nationally well regarded beer bar near downtown Minneapolis. They'll surely have good stouts on tap. Town Hall Brewery is across the street from them too so you can kill two birds there.

keep your eyes out for beer from Central Waters, bottle shops have it and a few bars will.
What type of food you want to eat?
use the blue and green line trains plus the bus system if you don't have a car.
a few bars, but not Much for stouts:

Most bars will have more stouts on tap in winter, it's not winter yet.

 

Summit Dark Infusion is coming out tomorrow, it's a really fantastic Imperial Coffee Milk Stout. If Town Hall has any of their BA stuff order it without hesitation.

 

Don't forget Falling Knife Brewing Co in Northeast!

 

This won't be open for a few months.

 

Modist, Fulton, and inbound are all close proximity to convention center and each other. A first draft just opened up nearby too I think. Dangerous man and indeed are great and somewhat close to each other, though not walking distance from convention center. A lot of places to eat, but don’t miss butcher and the boar. Just a block or two from the convention center. Go to the beer garden in the back. Usually have a good BA stout on.

 

Closer to the airport, but Wild Mind is a must stop in my book. Also for food, and not extremely far from there I recommend Pizzaria Lola.

 

Both great places, I would also add a nod to Red Wagon Pizza as an option if the wait at Lola is too long!

 

You aren't alone in this assessment.

 

Urban Growler's beers are worth a look if you are in the area again, but go out of your way to watch for any of Montgomery brewings ales. Small brewery an hour or so south of Minneapolis, everything they make is hand crafted and well made, I've been very impressed. Even the 1 or 2 I didn't like a lot were just not my cup of tea, I could still tell they were very well made.

 

I would not 2nd this suggestion on Urban Growler.

 

I would put both of these far, far down the list. Especially Urban Growler.
