28 Best Craft Breweries in Minneapolis

“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!“

“it was our first time there on Saturday friendly bartenders and staff we will for sure be back most definitely had a fun time!“

“Lovely atmosphere with great staff and fabulous cider! Watching the younger generation curling was so fun!“

“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.“

“They have some of the most unique brews I've had in a while, like a nitro IPA, and an aquavit barrel-aged IPA. My favorite of the bunch though was their TOKKI, a Korean rice lager. The bartender was also very friendly, and their space has big garage-doors that were open, so there was tons of natural light and cross-breeze.“

“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.“

“Such a comfortable place for a brew or two.“

“I enjoyed the drinks and games. Staff was awesome, Adrian was very helpful.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great beer, staff, and space“

“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!“

“Joined for dog yoga and simply love the vibe, the German name theme and all the diverse community events! Kudos for having a Big Lebowski themed bash!!“

“One of the best breweries in town.“

“super fun comedy show & great beer!“

“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.“

“Why even advertise Rush Hour? Tried it twice. First time … No Rush beer, no merch, lame. Bartenders were nice and gave us a discount. Second time … At least there was Rush beer on tap this time. The staff couldn’t be bothered to play more than three Rush songs and the merch giveaway was expired jars of Rush mustard. Lame. Maybe a handful of people were there for it both times. What’s the point?“

“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?“

“I love Wild Minds. Can’t say enough about how much I love this space, the vibe, the staff. They always have something new on their tap list. I’ve had some really good IPA’s and sours there. I can sit there for hours with family and friends. It’s a neighborhood gem. Good food truck options. Oh and the morning Wild Grinds coffee bar is also amazing!“

“We had lunch on Saturday at the bar and Tyler’s service and overall attentiveness was outstanding! The food and drinks, I had a flight, were very good. Great experience our first time there.“

“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.“

“Stopped in to get to go meal while at a conference at the hotel next door. Staff were welcoming and accommodating of my request, even let me have a water and tea while waiting. Food was excellent. I live in Saint Paul but will be making town hall a new place to stop with friends!“

“Some great beers to choose from.“

“Good beer and vibes all day, any day“

“The service here is fast and courteous! I recommend you give them a try!“
