We are thrilled to be partnering up with the upcoming Northstar Film Festival coming to MSP next week - September 15-18!

The Science of Beer
There's plenty of rad events for you to check out at the festival, and to cap things off, you can join us for the 'Science of Beer' closing party in the Taproom!
On September 17th from 9-11 PM, Founder Jeff Moriarty will be joined by Dr. James Cotner, professor of ecology from the University of Minnesota. James studies the role of microbes play in decomposition in aquatic systems. From his microbial background he has turned his attention to the microbial processes of brewing, where he has become a favored speaker at breweries.
