    Hello All,
    Thanks to this forum I have some great breweries lined up for this weekend. Cheers!
    Being Prince fans we are heading out to Paisley Park on Saturday, also catching the Cowboy game Thursday night, but that's about all the non beer related activity. What else would you recommend we see during our time there?
    Also, where would you recommend watching the SEC/Big 10 Championship games Saturday morning, 11am? Someplace with lots of TVs and a great local craft beer selection would be perfect.
    Thanks!
    Ed

    Maybe one of the Red Cow Locations -- They are starting their 12 Beers of Christmas series on 12/1... Darkness is first on the docket. They have solid brunch and a pretty nice TV set up for a place with great beer. I watched some of the NCAA Tourney there last year.

    If you plan on pre or post gaming Day Block Brewing is within sight of the east entrance to U.S. Bank Stadium, and Town Hall brewery is only a couple blocks farther east along Washington Ave.

    We're planning on hitting both pre game. Staying next to the Republic Gastro Pub, which looked to have a solid beer menu, for our ending spot on night one.

    I suggest trying the Smokey Oaky Porter and Coffee Kolsch at Day Block, and Good as Gold IPA, Masala Mama IPA, and what ever their barrel aged beer is on tap at Town Hall.
