Since we're all here to connect with others, how about a thread on ideas/meetups for this week's JNUC?
Hearing good things about Bryant Lake Bowl's microbrew selections, as well Town Hall Brewery for a more local option.
Others?

I'm an MSP and it'd be great to get together. I'll stop by the Eagle for dinner, see you there.

Sounds great Andy! A couple of us will be at Town Hall Brewery anyway. I hear The Republic has a great local selection as well and is right across street.
Let's say 5p meet time. We'll set up a little JNUC sign so folks can find us.
Here's the info for those who'd like to come out. All invited!
1430 Washington Ave S Minneapolis, MN 55454

Be prepared for TownHall to be a little nuts. Great beer, though. Republic's a good choice as well. Great happy hour. $3 beers, and a great selection. Sample some local brews (Steel Toe and Surly beers particularly recommended).

Are there any meet-ups planned for tonight? I see the post above me talking about the Crooked Pint at 6pm, wasn't sure if that was an "official" meet up :-)
Posted on 10-24-2012 11:10 AM
Yeah, pretty sure the meet-up at the Crooked Pint is actually an official event.
Posted on 10-24-2012 11:14 AM
Great! See everyone there!

Crooked is official. Original was informal last night.
Any brave enough to hop the bullet train to Mall of America's indoor amusement park post Crooked Pint? Open till 9:30p. $1.75/way. 20m ride on light rail. Riding the coasters after a few local brews then railing back downtown for late night could make for a pretty fun-filled last night in Minni.

I'm (sadly) not there with y'all but I feel obligated to tell you about Black Sheep pizza. Go there. Trust me. And they have Hoegaarden.
