We've got another beautiful day lined up:
🌮 Tacos El Sueno serving from 12-7pm
🏈 Vikings game on the taproom TV starting at noon
🎶 Spartz Electric playing on the patio from 4-6pm

Grab a delicious pour, enjoy some incredible tacos, catch the game, and kick back with live music on the patio as you soak up another perfect Sunday!

Forgot to post earlier that Tequila"s is here until 8pm today! They are serving up fantastic food that pairs perfectly with all of our b**rs. Whether you're gearing up for tomorrow's ride or just stopping by to kick off the weekend, they've got you covered!

And don't forget Luke Hendrickson is playing from 6-9pm on this gorgeous evening!

🍺🚲🎶🏈 BIG WEEKEND AHEAD!

THURSDAY:
🍺 Our Kölsch is back!

🍺 PLUS, a TODAY-ONLY preview of FILTHY HAZY, brewed especially for our Filthy 50 ride finishers! Featuring new New Zealand hops Nectaron and Superdelic, along with Citra, Motueka and Simcoe, it’s soft, juicy and loaded with citrus and berry flavor.
- Today is your only chance to try it before the ride! After tonight, we’re saving the rest for Saturday’s finishers. And depending on how thirsty those Filthy 50 riders are after 50 miles, there may not be any left!

FRIDAY:
🚲 Filthy 50 Registration | 6–8pm
🎶 Luke Hendrickson | 6–9pm
☀️ Plus, one heck of an October forecast!

Grab a b**r, get registered, and stick around for Luke’s rootsy mix of country, Americana and storytelling. It’s shaping up to be a pretty great Friday night at the brewery!

SATURDAY:
🚲 FILTHY 50 RIDE DAY!
🍪 School fundraiser with baked goods, snacks, soft drinks & more
🍺 Filthy Hazy waiting at the finish for our riders!

Another gorgeous Sunday is on the way, and we’ve got the perfect lineup to match it.

Our Oktoberfest Märzen and Cornucopia Sour are still on tap and tasting better than ever. Reubens and Things-Tips and Tails will be serving from noon-7pm, the D'Sievers Duo plays from 4-6pm, and the Vikings-Dolphins game will be on the taproom TV for the 3:05pm kick off.

Live music, good food, Vikings drama, and great b**r all wrapped up in a good fall forecast - Sunday’s looking pretty ideal. Hope to see you here!

Even though it may look a little gloomy, it's actually a really nice autumn day! So bring your sunny selves for Summer Sunday for Orchid Jane starting soon at 4pm, Tacos El Sueno is here until closing at 7pm, and with the Vikes game on in the taproom, you can check the score and then step out for live music - the best of both worlds!

A few brewery updates as we head into the weekend!

🎤 Jokes on Tap is taking September off due to a private party, but don't worry, it'll be back in October!

🍂 Oktoberfest might be over, but the fall vibes definitely aren't. Märzen and Cornucopia Sour are still flowing - come get your taste of fall!

And Sunday is looking GOOD:
🌮 Tacos El Sueno serving 12–7pm
🏈 Vikings game on in the taproom, kickoff at 3:05pm
🎶 Orchid Jane playing 4–6pm

Come for the tacos, stay for the game and live music, and enjoy a fall b**r or two along the way! 🍺💜💛

Our 5th Oktoberfest is in the books, and even with the weather doing its thing, you all turned it into one of the most fun, festive days we’ve had. Thank you for showing up, staying, celebrating, and making it feel like a true community gathering!

Here’s a photo dump in no order, just moments. Please tag yourselves, share your own photos, comment, and keep the memories going.

Special thanks to Jeff Lepper, Aaron Gage, Wyatt, Ed, Guthrie, and Paul Hamann for taking on the brat fundraiser. Because of their work and your generosity, over $800 is headed to the Fillmore County Special Olympics - that's a new record!

We’re endlessly grateful for our staff family. The compliments we hear about them - how kind, how welcoming, how on‑top‑of‑everything - mean the world. They’re the heart of days like this!

And a big thank‑you to the musicians and food truck who brought the flavor and the soundtrack:
- Heimstead with another German‑inspired home run.
- The Arnold-Bradley Band set the tone perfectly.
- Ron Vorwerk brought authentic Oktoberfest charm.
- The Lonely Knees closed out the afternoon with their upbeat, rockin’ vibe.

Also, thanks to our Pilot Mound neighbors, Bob Thompson and McCabe Family Farms, for providing the autumn decor! We get our pumpkins from Bob and straw bales from the McCabes.

Also many thanks to Ron Rain! He made it so much more festive with his 1936 (or 37?) John Deere wagon rides!

Oh - and you all drank an entire batch of Oktoberfest in one day! Don’t worry, we had a second batch waiting in the wings, so it’s back on tap today.

Thanks for making our 5th Oktoberfest unforgettable. Prost!
