The Gnat Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Thanks to @Heimdallr for saying this in the "Driving up to Minny tomorrow" Thread, but we should do a Minnesota brewery tourney for those of us who are familiar. I realize that this won't have a ton of application to those who don't live in Minnesota, sorry VD, but it's fun to talk about beer, and I love local beer. So I'll compile the list for votes, and then it will be randomly seeded, but the top 32 (right now that's the plan) or 64 if we make it that high, we will go through and do a bracket. Right now, just put in your up to Top 25 nominations: 1. Insight 2. Indeed 3. Headflyer 4. Ovalde Farm and Brewing 5. Fair State 6. Steel Toe 7. East Lake 8. Town Hall Brewery 9. Castle Danger 10. Venn Brewing 11. Wild Mind Ales 12. Canal Park 13. Lift Bridge 14. Pryes 15. Enki 16. Excelsior 17. Bauhaus 18. Bent Brewstillery 19. 612 20. Hammerheart 21. Bad Habit 22. Third Street 23. Modist 24. Bad Weather 25. August Schell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
