    From what I can tell, there are not many examples of MN craft brewing collab efforts. I see Indeed/Smokehouse, but really nothing else. Has there previously been quite a few collaborations, or is this not really something that has happened much?

    Being new to MN, I am digging the scene and how its growing, and it would be cool to see some local breweries doing some neat one-off collaboration efforts, especially pushing the boundaries of what's already been done.

    Hopefully it's not wishful thinking. I am not sure how hard this is for breweries to pull off

    Surly seems to have a pretty good bond going with 3 floyds ala Blakkar, Urine trouble and baller stout. As for collaborations between Minnesota brewers I can't think of anything off the top of my head.

    Thanks Gatornation. That is awesome. I hope more of these collaborations happen, especially since collaboration brews seem to offer styles and choices normally not seen put there

    Dangerous Man and Fulton had 13th Task Golden IPA. They only had it on draft and it was incredible.

    Surly (well Todd) collaborated with De Proef with Long in Tooth. Bottles that may still be found around in stores. Interesting enough cheaper than any Surly 750ml that has been released in the last few years.

    Just had Long of Tooth this weekend and it was a stellar brew. Blakkr was as well. Would like to see and buy more local collabs if they occur.
