12 Best Craft Breweries near Excelsior

“My husband and I came from Ohio to celebrate his birthday and we had some time to kill before attending Paisley Park for our tour. So we stopped at this establishment and the staff and the people in the area were friendly. As for the brew I'm not a beer drinker but I did try the Rosé seltzer and it was really good. Hubby and I definitely had a great experience!“

“Love the friendly atmosphere. Many events. Family and dogs welcomed. Outside is great with large movie screen for sport events. Great DJ.“

“This was our first time here and we had such a great time. So many beverage options and a fun, relaxed place to be. We will be back very soon!“

“Had the Purgatory Czech Pilsner crisp light lager. Good solid beer. Pretty busy on a Saturday lots of reserved but open tables. Open outside seating w a food truck. Dogs welcome. Has arcade games as well. Parking could be an issue. Strip mall has a number of other businesses that have reserved parking.“

“We love Hackamore! Good beers, and great staff.“

“Fat Pants is a wonderful addition to Eden Prairie with great beer and food! They offer fun events and we have hosted a party here. One of our favorite local places.😊“

“One on my favorite breweries, they have great beer, friendly staff, and fun times. The brewery is very community centric, and dog friendly. There are two patios, one that is out front of the building and the other in updstairs. The upstairs patio is very quite and one the best kept secrets in Shakopee. The beers are great, the Hazy IPA is incredible and the Mexican lager is amazing. There is a reason these beers keep wining in the MN brewer's cup.“

“Best tasting beer around. Great atmosphere“

“Highly recommend! As a local to the area, I think it is incredibly important to support small businesses! Even when they are super busy and running like mad trying to bartend, run trivia, change kegs, and make sure all customers have what they need, their staff is great. Reading through previous reviews, it’s clear that some people have never worked in the industry and have no patience or compassion.“

“Boom Island Brewing and The Tile Shop Thanks for a great Party. What a great Brewery and they know how to host a Party! 💯“

“My wife and I stopped by after searching for a pet friendly brewery.
The business was clean, and the service was excellent.
We had a half Pretzel and the special which is a pizza with two beer. The pizza was good, the Pretzel was great and the beer was delicious.“

“Birch's is one of the best places to go in the entire Twin Cities. It's unique yet, classic in many ways. Delicious food. Great Staff. Beautiful Ambiance. The crowds always bring a great energy.“
