    I heard about something like a blueberry beer from Schell's. Please use this thread if you know any of the specifics about what might be interesting and when and where it can be found. I am guessing that mini donut beer will be returning; hopefully in larger quantities.

    Are the specialty beers sold at the craft stand that has the multiple different samplers? If so, I must have gone at an off time.

    Red Cow Minneapolis has it on tap now. I picked up a growler earlier this summer at Flat Earth - it's definitely S'mores in a bottle. A bit too sweet for me. My favorite so far is the YYZ - Kona coffee coconut porter.

    The Schells Blue is available at the LuLu's beer station next to the stage in the new west end market..I normally don't like fruit beers but on a hot day it was quite tasty...and my wife loved the semi frozen slushy version..Best of both worlds!!

    Is anyone going to the fair Monday the 25th? I'll be up there during the day if anyone wants to grab a beer.

    It's a part of the samplers at the Land of 10,000 beers exhibit.

    Yeah I should have mentioned that. Sometimes they're out of things so it can be hit-or-miss.

    Hit or miss I was looking for the cold press too no luck. I went up the street and got a size 7 instead.
