    Rules: No Summit, no Surly, no Schells. Beers must be available in at least one liquor store either bottled or canned; i.e. not tap- or growler-only (sorry, Town Hall).

    What are the best 2 or 3 smaller MN Brewers?

    My list, and probably in this order:

    Bent Paddle Brewing
    Badger Hill Brewing
    Indeed Brewing Company

    Sorry... forgot about Steel Toe... :flushed: the "no S" only meant "no Summit, Surly, Schell"...

    If it didn't start with S, this would have been in everyone's top 3.

    Town Hall and Fitger's don't distribute, so those don't qualify. :-(
