“La Doña is a fantastic place to meet up with friends for beer, tacos, hablar en Español, and Trivia Mafia. I invite my friends to Trivia Mafia on Tuesday nights, and we have an incredibly fun time with the whimsical trivia. We have even won gift card prizes some times! Today before Trivia Mafia, I ordered chips & guacamole, with extra guacamole and cilantro mayo. I also ordered the steak quesadilla. Very delicious!“
“Awesome place to host an event!! Super helpful staff, great atmosphere and plenty of space for guests.“

“Lovely atmosphere with great staff and fabulous cider! Watching the younger generation curling was so fun!“
“One of our favorite breweries in the area - there is always a great selection of high quality beer that is strongly influenced by German brewing style, the community events are great, and there is usually a good food truck in the evenings to order at, or food in the area to bring.“
“A must visit in the north loop! Great beer! Amazing people! The perfect place to visit before a twins game or any day really… Cory, thank you for the hospitality. I look forward to coming back soon!“
“The staff were great! I liked the indoor and outdoor seating. This place has some really cool events like cat snuggling and table top game nights. The beer was good and cold. I am not a fan of happy beers and these were too happy for my taste, but they were good beers. Just not my flavor.“
“I enjoyed the drinks and games. Staff was awesome, Adrian was very helpful.“
“Wonderful German- style beers and food. The outdoor dining area is lovely, and we received incredible service. We look forward to returning.“
“Our family has a blast visiting Bang Brewing!!! The beers were 10/10 and the setting is so darn peaceful! Sit and watch the pollinators come and go, can't wait to visit in the other seasons! Go and relax with a great beer and then be inspired to go tend to or make your native garden!!!“
“Nice large venue both the indoors and patio. Their beer menu is more traditional/European styles, which is my preference.
They have an outdoor ordering window and indoor ordering lane which helps reduce the awkward talking over someone’s shoulder type ordering many bars have.
The hefe-mosa and witbier were my favorite.“
“It has a great staff and the people were just so welcoming!“
“Such a comfortable place for a brew or two.“
“Would not work with this venue again, as they do not operate in good faith with their artists. They intentionally lied and misled a group of full-time working artists, and will probably continue to do so moving forward, as venues like this tend to fall into habit of mistreating acts Disappointing to say the least, I would not support live entertainment here. I can guarantee you the money is not going and the hands of the performers or producers putting on the events, as it should. If you are a performer or producer yourself, please look elsewhere, there are many other fantastic venues in the nearby neighborhoods that are worth supporting and working with.“
“it was our first time there on Saturday friendly bartenders and staff we will for sure be back most definitely had a fun time!“
“We went to Steel Toe for the first time today. We enjoyed the best of Minneapolis summer entertainment. They have a nice outdoor area with a food truck for your tummy. We played a trivia game and saw others playing cribbage. It was quiet and lots of actual chatting and interacting that doesn't happen when music or TV is overbearing.“
“I'm new ish the metro and just don't get how you have the best taproom and best beer and least condescending taproom staff. Truly a one of a kind spot. Never met Scott but I'm told it's his legacy living on and may it live on for a long long time.“
“Good size tasting room in a nondescript mall north of the Twin Cities. They shine with their hazies but have a great range of options. Excellent music in the background. Low key. Quality beer. Good patio space for summer afternoons. Friendly staff. Pinball! Will return.“
“Absolutely wonderful! Staff is fun, friendly, and personable. We recently co-hosted an event at Inbound and everything was flawless! Great communication and a huge following that really helped promote the event. The drinks are delicious and even the clientele is great! We can't wait to be back!“
“How could I have not reviewed this place yet? Been going here weekly since they weren’t here but over behind there. You know what I mean. The beer is consistently excellent. There have been a few whoops beers that I didn’t care for, but that’s just my tastes buds fault I guess. Flagship beers are the hazy and hoppy ‘sippi squeeze and the crisp crispy business. Also they have a gosh darn happy hour! A happy hour in this day and age, you say? Yes way, I say! $5 weekdays 4-6. Thank god there is still a business in Minneapolis that has the guts to serve $5 beers.
If you don’t go the 56 you are really missing out. Their patio faces the sunset and is shaded by a huge beautiful cottonwood. The side deck faces a giant community garden. Truly a great spot.
The staff are the coolest. They treat you like a friend; sometimes they laugh with you and sometimes they laugh at you. 😁“
“Really great Beer. Party Forward IPA was fantastic.“
“One of the best breweries in town.“
“The International Wolf Center had a Happy Hour Howl in the Ratskeller Room. Working with Summit staff was smooth and easy. They made it fun. Our members gave rave reviews about the whole evening. We will have another event there again. Thanks!“
“Hidden gem!!! Perfect night to sit outside and enjoy a beer!“
“Great selection and great beer garden. Loved my beer! High quality. Food available.“
“Loved this brewery. I have been coming here since the 612 Brewing open their doors and now to Padraigs Brewing for the first time. Although not a beer brewing professional but a beer connoisseur, I really enjoyed the different Irish beers. Please go and support Padraigs Brewing and their excellent beer and ambience.“
“Love the atmosphere. Good food, great beer!“
“I’m telling you, this place is amazing! Not your typical brewery - but we just had several flights and every beer, even those I don’t care for, are really good beers. They seriously know what they are doing! If you like good beer, you need to stop here!“
“Fantastic menu - lots of great choices and a nice, spread out space with lots of natural light. Unique beers that are delicious!“

“My dad and I - both huge craft beer fans- stumbled across this absolute gem last night. Neither of us live in the area (I’m in S Mpls and he’s in the south suburbs), but we were in Plymouth looking for a brewery and this one sounded unique. I’m going to try to make this succinct, but so much was perfection, so here’s a list of PROS:
-Friendly and extremely knowledgable staff. My dad asks lots of questions, and the kind beertender had good answers about how the brews were made, hops used, “this is a little different than other brews in this style, what’s different?”, etc. He even came out from behind the bar to chat with us, which I don’t see at any other tap rooms.
-HUGE variety of brews, and nearly all were fabulous in my opinion.
-Completely unique vibe, which was refreshing for me coming from Minneapolis, where it’s easier to find a brewery thats just like all the other breweries than it is to find someone who’s doing something truly unique.
-Related to the above: chairs were actually comfortable and not those crappy metal chairs every single brewery has.
-Dad loved the library. Between the excellent selection of books and beers, I think he was ready to move in.
-Variety of upcoming events, including the classic trivia, a maker’s market, and TRICYCLE JOUSTING coming up on 6/1.
-Appears they have a patio as well, it was raining when we visited.
-Head brewer is a woman, which is less common than one might hope in 2025, but here we are. She’s so talented, and I’m a fan without even having met you, Lori!
Cons:
-No in-house food, which some may prefer. I didn’t mind ordering in from Davanni’s, who gave us a discount for ordering from the brewery. Perhaps they have food trucks sometimes, I’ll keep an eye out for that when I return. They do have snacks like pretzels and chips.
-This place is not in my back yard, which is only a con for me personally; hopefully they’re closer to you, dear reader.
Overall, well worth a return trip to see what’s on tap and sit a spell in a friendly, welcoming, unique environment.“
“Fantastic beers, love it 🍻🇺🇸 #StatechaserUSA #YouHaveBeenChased“
“We caught an Irish band playing here live around St Patty's day, and boy was that fun. The outdoor patio is great, and it's near the Twins Target Field. The interior is also spacious. I appreciated how they had some decent food offerings to pair with the beer.“

“Chill vibes, especially with their outdoor dining. Tried the chicken & waffles w/ a spicy maple syrup and it was delicious — perfectly crispy chicken, fluffy waffles, and just the right balance of sweet and spicy. Fast friendly service, Definitely worth a visit!“
“Stopped in after a gloomy, rainy travel day for a brew and a bite. First, it's in a lovely old neighborhood, very safe, very walkable. The building is beautiful and the rooftop terrace expansive. Sun peeked out JUST enough that we drank the first beer up top. My Roggan Rojabier was sublime and the cozy welded firepits just added to the Fall vibe. Decided to have a second brew and a burger -- the og smashburger was insanely tasty. I finished the whole dang thing. But the best part? The kindest, most helpful, fun staff. Is everyone in Minneapolis just that delightful?“
“What a great brewery located in the heart of Birdtown. Great bingo, meat raffle and an annual summer party with great give aways! The patio has live music in the summer. Winter time music moves inside.“
“The pizza and salad were great but we didn't get what we ordered. We ordered a Walter White pizza and got What's the Damage. We ordered a Greek salad and got a Caesar salad. The dark lager was great. 5 stars if the order had been correct.“

“Some great beers to choose from.“

“I’ve been to a lot of taprooms. If I was going to open one, I’d want it to be just like Invictus!
The beer is very good, but the rare few I don’t care for, like the Nut Goodie Stout, someone else will love. And the food selection from the Tipsey Steer is very good too, especially the Armadillo Eggs. Highly recommended! BTW, I’m heading there again to meet up with some friends in a few minutes…“
