Holy shit balls, doone. That’s a hell of a lineup. I need to check my calendar and see if I can go to that.
As far as the list goes, I’ve sampled beers from a large portion of those breweries, so I can’t comment on all of them. I will say that these are some of the absolute best from that group. Let me know if you have questions about a specific brewery and I’ll answer that directly.
Barrel Theory - this one is my absolute favorite right now
Bent Paddle
Castle Danger
Dangerous Man
Fair State
Fulton
Indeed
Junkyard
Lift Bridge
Lupulin
Modist
Surly
I think the lineup got bigger https://www.mncraftbrew.org/event/all-pints-north/
Bell's is on there now so I hope i get to try two hearted ale. Any others I should look for?

Also, I can believe you haven’t had Two Hearted.

I really like hazys toolefty wrote:Is the New England style IPA big everywhere else? One of the breweries here in Lexington recently went crazy with hazy IPAs, and used one for their first canning. I was also on vacation Michigan last week and had a M-43 IPA, which is apparently well regarded right now. I'm a pretty big fan of the style, but wasn't sure if this going on everywhere like the West Coast version did a few years ago.

Yup. I've got three of those from 2017 in my basement to enjoy next year.

Liquor stores get about one shipment of them, and they are usually out by noon on release day. I usually have to luck into a pour from a random bar or restaurant that has managed to get a keg.
