I just read Surly is closing the Brewers Table restaurant and the chef is leaving in August.

Really disappointing news. The Brewers Table offers a fantastic dining experience with thoughtful beer pairings. I’ll definitely visit again before it closes for good.

Unfortunately, despite the quality of the food and service, it never seemed to catch on. I don’t think it was ever more than two-thirds full during any of my visits. I wonder if it would have been more successful if it had its own location separate from the madhouse that is the beer hall.

Sociable has a really neat barrel aged cider out right now. Freewheeler aged in sauv blanc barrels I think?

Butcher & The Boar is throwing an event called Lagerfest 2017 tomorrow evening. 16+ lagers on offer. Sounds chill.

Also, it looks like Fulton has made a collab kettle sour w/ Ballast Point to celebrate the National Homebrewers Conference that’s currently taking place in town.

Stinsons posted on social media that Drekker Brewing is going to begin getting limited distro in the Twin Cities. I checked out Drekker’s taproom in Fargo last weekend and found their beers to be pretty solid. Certainly worth a punt if you happen to get the chance to grab a few singles.

At Summit brewing, where they are killing it with the Unchained 25 Vienna lager.
