4.5Mankato Brewery(57 reviews) - Love the beer! Sunday: 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM Breweries
I love this place! Don't expect anything fancy, it is a brewery not a restaurant. I would consider myself a pretty picky beer drinker. I love all the beers but especially love their Haymaker IPA! I think they are also in the process of building a patio area.See more..
4.5OMNI Brewing Co.(53 reviews) - Lager was delicious! Service was friendly. Spent 1-2 hours Breweries
We attended their 6th anniversary party last weekend. It was busy, but it was a good time! They had a few food trucks as well as live music. I had a sour Strawberry Lemonade beer and I didn't care for it as much as other sours, but their lager was really good! I could drink a few of those! Great event, kind of hidden location, but worth it to go!See more..
We believe that the best beers are the ones that everyone can relate to. Solid. Well-crafted. With a thoughtful twist. You won't have to guess what is in your glass, but you'll sure as hell want to figure it out. And then share one with a friend. Cheers.See more..

4.5LTD Brewing Co.(46 reviews) - Great beer, great vibe Breweries
We visited LTD because it was closest to our hotel, and are we ever glad we did! Its location in Hopkins has a cozy, small-town feel. Staff welcomed us at the door, told us about the product, directed us to choose a seat and showed us the pile of take out menus for neighbouring restaurants. We were initially attracted because of the triple IPA, but enjoyed several of the other offerings as well. The place is super comfy -- you can sit at a regular table, a high-top, or crash on cushy couches in the corners. Lots of food options are nearby and some of them will even run the food down to the taproom for you. We came back a second time in a four day visit!See more..

4.5Goat Ridge Brewing Company(41 reviews) - So good we went twice in two days! Spent 1-2 hours Breweries
While camping at Sibley State Park in November, we wanted to go somewhere for a hot meal and a cozy interior to warm up. This place made the punch list and beyond. Our first day there we had the Burning Pig Party pizza and a pretzel, amazing - the pizza was the combo of crispy, hot, gooyness one desires. I highly recommend the Swinging Utters w/ Cherry and the hard cider but every beer we had was unique in it's own way. Second day back we had to try the nachos with barbacoa and were not disappointed. The outdoor space below the dam is beautiful and would love to go back in the summertime when we can enjoy it.See more..
We 3 ladies were headed back home (Brainerd area) from Minneapolis. None of us had ever been to the brewery. Very organized! Inside or outside available. You reserve a table for 90 minutes. Tables were being sanitized quickly and promptly when guests returned their table # card letting them know you have left. Many options and flavors of beer! We will be back! Cheers!!See more..

Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon It wasn't too busy but a steady line for the beer. This is our 2nd visit and we planned ahead and brought our own lunch and snacks. Ordered a flight to try a few and we each enjoyed a pint with our picnic lunch. My idea of a perfect lunch date. I like places that don't mind bringing in your own food.See more..

4.5Island City Brewing Company Co(30 reviews) - Great local brewery Sunday: 12:00 PM - 8:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Breweries
Wonderful space inside and out. I went here to grab a pint and get some work done. The IPA I had was delicious and the staff were pleasant. I saw that they had some lawn games (like corn hole). They do not serve food here, but you can probably bring your own.See more..
It’s not just about the beer. It’s about the people, the camaraderie, the community. It’s about sipping a beer steeped in Cuyuna’s industrial roots.

We look forward to bringing this “can do” community together through our beer and this brewery. At Cuyuna Brewing Company we have two goals: quality and experience.

4.5Spiral Brewery(20 reviews) - Exactly what a craft brewery should be Spent 1-2 hours Breweries
From the building itself to the beers themselves, it's exactly what a craft brewery should be...cozy, quaint, friendly, and welcoming. The beers were all solid (well, the 6 I tried anyway) and adding a little cold press coffee to their stout (which they were able to do even with a small taster flight glass) was delicious! Awesome, friendly people behind the bar, too!See more..
Giesenbräu Bier Co. (pronounced "GHEE-sen-broy") is a family owned and operated brewery whose goal is to serve the local community with fresh, locally crafted lagers and ales with an emphasis on German tradition.See more..
We visited three breweries today and this one was by the far the best! Great staff, friendly atmosphere, and outstanding beer! We LOVED the triple berry sour so much that I bought more to take home. We will return here as often as possible. See more..
This shares a location with Carlos Creek Winery. It’s hard to tell where the winery stops and brewery begins. It’s just a bunch of buildings on a beautiful. The brewery building where they started selling beer in 2019 reminds me a bit of a German beer hall. The brewers clearly know that hat they’re doing and offer an array of lagers and ales, with so many IPAs they decided to number them rather than name them.See more..
4.5Moose Lake Brewing(15 reviews) - Amazing little place Sunday: 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Breweries
This hide-out is right on Moose Lake. The beer is a wonderful micro-brew of different blends. The mango beer is especially good. Do enjoy!See more..
5.0Karst Brewing(15 reviews) - Good Place to Visit When Biking the Root River Trail Spent 1-2 hours Breweries
Stopped here while biking on the Root River Trail between Peterson and Fountain. I feel that the best stretch of the trail is between Peterson and Lanesboro for both scenery and ease of biking. From Lanesboro to Fountain, it is a steady climb and you move away from the river. However, what makes the effort worth it is a stop at Karst Brewing. Really good beer and a nice patio. A nice reward after a long bike ride and it made the descent back to Lanesboro all the more enjoyable. See more..
4.0Foxhole Brewhouse(14 reviews) - Great beer, horrible location. Sunday: 11:30 AM - 4:00 PM Breweries
The Story: Foxhole Brewhouse...where to begin? Beer and Bowling! That was the spark that is now a flame. After being introduced to a "dark" beer at our local bowling alley we were hooked. Our love of craft beer took off and soon that turned into homebreweing. Now that's were the fun began! Two plus years of obsessive homebrewing (which is the only way Ryan works when he has a idea in his head) to a drive to learn about professional brewing brings us to the point...Foxhole Brewhouse. Why Foxhole? Well, our last name means Fox in German and Liv in all her "slyness" thought our home was our foxhole. We got a few good laughs, threw a few homebrew parties and it stuck. There hasn't been a brewery in Willmar since 1899 and we think it's time to bring it back with fresh, local, handcrafted beer! Not the fizzy yellow stuff massed produced and stripped of all the wonderful flavors that are meant to be in there. I mean small batch, flavorful and aromatic beer. Variety too, there are so many amazing varieties of beer that can be crafted we get excited thinking about brewing them for everyone to taste. Damn I'm thirsty...time to get brewing...see you soon! Our location: Our 5BBL Microbrewery is located downtown Willmar, MN. We have a taproom attached to the brewery with seating for around 65 and outdoor seating during the summer months.See more..
4.0Big axe brewing(14 reviews) - Best chicken wings! Breweries
I’m not much of a beer connoisseur. However, I really like some of their lighter beers. The main reason my wife and I Iove Big Axe Brewing is their chicken wings! They are the best - crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. They are a premium wing with very white meat on the wing. See more..
We visited on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't too busy and we found a table right away. I had a Cream Sota and my friend had a Paley's Comet. Both were so good, we had refills !! They had Cheeseburger Sliders as a special so we ordered some. They came out hot, juicy and delicious. Fun atmosphere. We would return for sure. In the summer when we could sit outside on their patioSee more..

4.5Imminent Brewing(13 reviews) - Downtown brewery near other attractions Spent 1-2 hours Bars & Clubs • Breweries
Imminent Brewing was one of our various stops on a daytrip to Northfield. They had a large patio with lots of seating and a firepit. It was a little chilly when we visited so we opted for a table indoors. Inside the building was bright thanks to several large windows and overhead doors with glass panels. The atmosphere was very typical of a modern brewery. Dogs are allowed and there were several board games and card games available for use. My husband and I each ordered a flight, three of my four choices were okay, not bad but not very memorable. I did enjoy the bock beer. They did also have a menu on the tables for food to be brought in, but we did not take advantage of this option.See more..
My son bought me here to show me a good American taproom and brewery (I am British). Blown away by the hospitality and knowledge of the bar staff. The beer list is enormous. Tried to many beers but all were tremendous. The head brewer is a wizard of beer. AWESOME!!!See more..
