241 Fremont Ave N, Minneapolis - 7.52 miles

“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!“

“My favorite spot to grab a beer in the neighborhood. Staff has always been pleasant. Really good brews and usually a nice variety on tap. They host community events regularly and their contribution to the neighborhood is felt and noticeable. Wonderful and comfortable space with public transit nearby for accessibility. Handful of pinball machines. Great little outdoor patio. Gender neutral single stall bathrooms. Solid rotation of good food trucks. Great spot for anyone!“

Insight Brewing & Taproom Brewery • $
2821 E Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis - 6.96 miles

“We were here for the first time last night. A lot of fun, the beers we tried were excellent. A porter and the “Lunchbox”. We had come because one of our favorite food trucks was parked there. Will definitely be back!

The only negative is, there are very few low-top tables. All booths, and all were taken. We just dislike high tops, because getting up and down the high stools is uncomfortable for our old knees. If there were more lower tables, we’d be more comfortable, but recognize this is a personal preference.“

“This is one of Minneapolis's great breweries! There is so much space here and they usually have a fun food truck for goodies to snack on. What I really loved while visiting, was how much effort was put into the Bavarian decor theme. Super fun!“

HeadFlyer Brewing Brewery • $
861 E Hennepin Ave #100, Minneapolis - 6.6 miles

“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.“

Torg Brewery Brewery • $
8421 University Ave NE, Spring Lake Park - 2.41 miles

“One of the true hidden gems of the Twin Cities metro, an absolutely fantastic nerd and even kid-friendly space (foosball, arcade machines, darts are all favorites). There are few better places to meet up and play a game - personally, not being a sports person, I love the lack of TVs, nothing to sap your attention or make you feel captive to random commercials. I go there regularly to play TTRPGs. Great beer, alcoholic and non-alcoholic seltzers, you can BYOF (Mashawi grill up the road is delicious). The beers aren't the usual 6 IPAs and 5 sours, there's a nice mix of British and German styles (including wheat beers, which are weirdly hard to find).

There are absolutely a million play spaces in different nooks and crannies in the building, you can always find a quiet place to play even if there's music, etc. The owner hosts tons of events, nerdy and otherwise. I only wish I could drink more beer and go more often.“

Under Pressure Brewing Brewery •
8806 7th Ave N, Golden Valley - 9.3 miles

“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.“

Surly Brewing Co. Brewery • $$
520 Malcolm Ave SE, Minneapolis - 8.26 miles

“I really like Surly's beer but never had the opportunity to visit the Beer Hall. I was warmly received, but not told about restaurant week specials. I enjoyed trying a Mosh Pit Hazy IPA - yummy. I ordered some mahi tacos. They were OK but expensive for what I got. There were no 'sides' I could order! I ordered chicken tacos. It was a small serving of pulled chicken. Again, way too expensive for what I got. Would have liked a side salad or fries. I sat at the bar. Service was friendly and fast. It was a good first visit. Will not be rushing back anytime soon. Too bad.“
