Spiced Dog ...dang they make these and sell them to you sealed, with a glass of ice. Way to buck the system with an off-sale and be delicious! Or whatever that's called. 19 proof with vodka, grapefruit juice, jalapeño syrup, and lime juice. Yum!! Edit: omg the women's bathroom has bidets installed in both booths. The sinks are really interesting too. Wow the best bathroom I've ever been in! read more

Are you into beer? Great! But your friends are not into beer... at all? This is the perfect balance! My celiac pal likes to go out for a mixed drink, my beer drinking pals join us, I'm a seltzer gal... and THIS place has something for all of us! It's a really cute spot! Lots of tables, easy lines, and really quick service! There's a patio, but let's be real... we won't be seeing that for another 6 months! read more

Bent Brewstillery - Always delicious! - Breweries Near Me - Roseville, Minnesota

They have an amazing place to enjoy a nice sip of beer and food from a truck. This is the first time visiting the place and I took a lager. They do have some different flavors compared to others. They have beers for everyone. They also have different cocktails and spirits too. They do sell cocktails by bottles too. They have there own cocktails bottled up and it's nice to have them. They even have a trivia night on Thursday and it was fun. Ambiance was lively and neat. They also have a nice outdoor patio. read more

If this brewstillery was bigger I think it would be a lot better. I know they are newer, so it should come with time. I'm a fan of their fruity/sour beers and had a great one called NURDS the last time I was there and really did feel like drinking/eating nerds. I can only have one of them and then have to try some of the other IPAs. I like their artwork a lot within the brewery and on their cans. They have beer / liquor / pulltabs / food trucks (certain days/times) Huge Parking Lot read more

There's a bidet in this brewstillery's bathroom! Also the bartender was super awesome! Helpful & knowledgeable & amicable. Cool dude. A friend had a Groupon for here and offered it up as a place to hang out and try. We got some samplers plus ordered a few extra kinds to use up the amount on the Groupon. I was underwhelmed. I think there was one beer that was all right, but nothing really excited me. I realize it was a Sunday night so football would be on, but it was so loud! And the Vikings weren't even playing! It wasn't that crowded or noisy that the volume needed to be up so high. But if it was for the table of regulars in the middle of the place I can kind of understand. I was bummed there wasn't a food truck at all. Note to self...bring food... I'll probably try to stop again to try the stillery stuff and possibly use the bidet... read more

Second stop on our brewery tour! So far so good! Bent Brewstillery is super fun, but holy buckets does it get packed on trivia night! Be prepared for that. The bartender was AWESOME. I asked him for a recommendation, he asked what I liked and made two solid recommendations. I picked the cider (I'm noticing a trend) and was not disappointed. Perfect. Not too sweet, plenty of flavor... it's something I'd buy canned. They also had the Anchor Fish & Chips food truck out and we LOVED IT. So good. I know that's not technically Bent Brewstilleries thing, but still. Good partnership, good choice. read more

4 stars for the awesome bartender, 2 taps, use of space and the toilet warmers! This is off the beaten industrial path and would not have known about it if I didn't have a Groupon. First we had a flight, a pint and a growler-AWESOME deal! In the flight was Nordic Blonde, Moar IPA, Belgian Berlin Ur-Block and Nourishing Stout-Nitro. I really did not like it, but truthfully, I have yet to find one I do like. I loved the Nitro the best. It obviously is a crowd favorite, so we were not allowed to get a growler of it. I also had to try the Gewurztraminer (12.5%), It was my second favorite, as it was almost a wine. The bartender was very informative regarding the space and how they came about as a distillery. He also shared about the sodas on tap and cold press coffee. We did not try these, but witnessed many people buying them. It's pretty small inside, but they used up the space with high top and low picnic tables well. The entire wall rolls up and is connected to a large patio. It would be a perfect place to have music in the parking lot, because there is no other businesses near by. Maybe they already to this. read more

More of a unique brewery as they also make their own spirits. We happened to check them out on a day that they were able to save hard alcohol. A kind couple that we sat with out on the patio informed us that laws limit them to selling the spirits only a few days per year. Otherwise it is strictly beer. The group I was with ordered both beers and drinks. I was impressed with everything I ordered and tried sips of from others glasses. Pretty typical brewery set up: inside and outside seating, kids and dogs welcome, food truck in the lot. Lots of free parking in the lot out front. Not typical (not totally awesome): Prince artwork under a halo and a toilet that washes and dries your lady parts after you tinkle. I'd go just to experience that! read more

Great staff, good brews, dogs welcome, food trucks, great music and very comfortable. It is very popular with the regulars in the area.

I have been to this place for beer several times and I just realized that they are a brewstillery= brewery + distillery. The bartender here was awesome, he was such a good salesperson he got us bent over and purchased a bottle of rum after a few glasses of beer. He brought us to the back to have sample of their rum and gin before convincing us to make the purchase. Lots of beer, mead and sours on tap... and the option changes weekly. Very ambitious beer and distillery makers. Apparently one's a PhD and the other is a rocket scientist! I also love places with free popcorn, it's such a great compliment to your beer. For the ladies, don't forget the visit to the restroom. They have a bidet. Reminded me of My trip to Japan. I could sit in there for 10 mins, I warned my husband not to come looking for me. Overall awesome and legit. No attitude, totally a cool place to hang out. Lots of parking spots. read more

Bent Brewstillery - Coffee rum! - Breweries Near Me - Roseville, Minnesota

The beer here is pretty good, and the space is pretty decent too. My biggest complaint about this place is the "dog culture". There are SO many dogs, and quite a few are well behaved. Unfortunately there are also many aggressive/loud dogs. I even saw a customer pick their little dog up and let it lay on the table. This was close to the bar, and employees did nothing to stop it. Unless I see some changes, I will probably just let the dog people drink here. read more

Very flavorful craft spirits and beers! Our visit happened to coincide with game night. Cozier establishment with good ambiance. Tasty frozen pizza options, manufactured in Waconia, were available to complement the beers. read more

I never made it to the taproom when it was Pour Decisions, but I was certainly a fan of their beer. Fortunately, the same can be said now that the brewing and distilling operations are under the same banner, which isn't surprising because it's still the same man doing unique things with barley, hops and many other uncommon ingredients. The taproom might not be in an ideal location, but it's still a good place to hang out over a few pints or to pick up a growler or bottle for the road. Bent has a few staple beers on tap which don't disappoint, however, it's the one-off and experimental beers where Bent really differentiates itself. Whether they're playing around with wild yeast, making sneaky strong meads or running an uncommon style on nitro, you're very likely to find something novel on each visit. The Twin Cities brewery scene is seemingly growing at a fever pitch, but Bent's unique offerings, the fact that they also have their own line of spirits and the laid back atmosphere of the taproom certainly carve out an enjoyable niche for themselves. read more

Bent is the closest tap room to where I live so I've stopped in a few times now. The remodeled tab room opened in August and I've a fan. Location is a bit hard to find, it's literally in an office/warehouse park so check your route before you go. They have a wide selection of interesting beer - everything from ales to sours. My favorite is Moar, a Scottish Session IPA. But I also like the Nordic Blond. Nice patio with a hodgepodge of picnic tables, metal mesh rounds and barrel high-tops. I'd give them 5 stars if they had a food truck more often. Can't wait to see what the 'stillery' part of their name brings. read more

Bent Brewstillery brings more variety to the previous Pour Decisions brewing after the merger. I've been here a few times and I'm loving the taproom. The amount of space here is awesome and has a modern look to it. But of course a taproom is nothing without the beer to truly define it. The merger between Pour Decisions and Bent Brewstillery just made sense. Pour decisions was know for their sours and barrel aged brews. Since Bent is a distillery as well, they get the best of both worlds. Barrels that can be used and reused as often as they want. A perpetual cycle of delicous beers and the distilled hard liqours. When I went, they had the Bent staples, such as nordic blonde and Moar. Both good (I prefer Moar), however there was a fantastic sour called Rose Gose that was very near perfect. It's worth a glass if you're into sours. I have high hopes for Bent Brewstillery and so far they are meeting them. read more

Definitely one of my new favorite breweries / taprooms! Maybe it's because I'm partial to Roseville and it's a quick drive from home. We met up with some friends here on a lovely warm and breezy Friday afternoon at the end of July. It was the first time for everyone in our group and we all had a super good time. I loved the Raspberry Ginger Orange Blossom mead beverage (seasonal experimentals menu). It was sweet and spicy with a nice kick of honey. We also got flights and it was great to be able to try all the different beers. I liked the London stout the best - nice and dark! Husband and friends enjoyed their Nordic Blonde the most and ended up getting Growlers to go. We sat inside but had an amazing breeze from the patio. Service was fast and very friendly. Bathrooms nice and large and everything looks clean and new! They have a large space here - the potential is enormous. Would like to see what awesome seasonals they have for Autumn. I'll be out here, sitting on the patio enjoying something new every once in awhile. A great spot that's close to Byerly's, Caribou, Brueggers, Walgreens and Osaka Sushi and Hibachi. Don't let the otherwise empty industrial back roads in this part of Roseville scare you away....Bent Brewstillery is worth a try! read more

Cool little brewery just outside St. Paul, when you're driving into the parking lot, it's located near the back, we almost didnt see it. The vibe is cool, laid back, lotsa board games to peruse, and a couple TVs playing sports games. No food, but they provide free popcorn which is cool. For beers I got the uber lupin and giga lupin, and the nordic blonde with grapefruit juice (they provide a few beer/juice cocktails which I personally like) The Lupin beers were good, though a bit heavy/darker than how I usually prefer pale ales, but they are labelled as imperial/triples. I went on a Sunday and a good amount of people were hanging out. I enjoyed it and would be down to return read more

I am so glad I purchased this deal from LivingSocial!!! Went on a Wednesday evening, the place was quiet and there were a few patrons around. The server was quite pleasant as she chatted happily about beer. I actually loved all the beers on the flight! Although it was a deal that brought me to Bent, I shall return to buy a growler or 5. read more

Bent Brewstillery - Flight of beer - Breweries Near Me - Roseville, Minnesota

I would give this a zero if I could. I came here today with my Pubpass and the owner would not honor the 1 free beer. He said it was only good for a BOGO. It clearly says 1 free beer in the booklet. His defense was that it also doesn't say you have to first buy a full price beer. The bartender told us later that they were honoring the 1 free beer earlier this year, but then the owner told him to stop because people weren't "sticking around". All that aside, it was a gloomy dank dive bar with subpar beer. When I went to write this, I saw another negative review about the owner making lewd comments. GROSS! read more

It's been a while since my last visit here, which after this last visit is going to have to change to a little bit more frequent then once in a blue moon. Found myself here on one of those lucky days in which they had a license to serve cocktails (if I remember correctly they get to do this about 12 days out of the year, serving both cocktails and beer). If you happen to go on one of the days in which they aren't serving cocktails, the beer options are still a great choice. The uniqueness of creating both hard liquor and beer makes these guys stand out from the crowded brewing market. Plus it's great tasting (both beer and liquor). There is a variety of beers to be tasted, which after leaving the taproom and you forgot to pick up a growler, you can grab at your local liquor store. The taproom is a decent size and they have an outside patio. The staff is friendly and helpful and the customers are just as or even more. Plenty of great times are to be had in this tap room as you sip a lazy Sunday away. As they continue to branch out in beer flavors, they will start to attract beer drinkers willing to take the drive outside of the twin cities. read more

So, Bent is interesting. First off, don't go expecting to get cocktails made with their liquor. They are licensed brewery/tap room, which means they can't also craft drinks with hard liquor. Kind of a bummer. You can buy bottles of their liquor though, if you're willing to purchase without sampling! We have had their gin, which is strong AF. Hubs and I have been twice now - first time with a groupon which got us each a flight, pint glass, and $10 beer credit. The bartender, who we think kind of looks like Leonidas from 300, was quite helpful. Their flag ship beers are solid, I have enjoyed a Lonely Blonde on more than one occasion (heeeheee). Some of their seasonals/specialties are hit or miss. The taproom itself is a bit on the smaller side which is tough if you have more than 4 people. Like Justin K noted, the line can get kind of clogged up with only the one bartender generally able to fill brews. The bathrooms are nice and well kept and ladies, our bathrooms even have heated bidets. Oh, they are so nice. Sorry boys, none for you! They are in the food truck rotation, and even though they can't serve their liquor, they *do* have mead, which is quite good and an option for those weirdos out there who don't like beer. All in all a solid brewery and I would go back! read more

We love BENT! The staff are always nice and helpful and the owners are great! They have created a laid back and welcoming atmosphere. They keep a few of their beers on tap Year round, but are always changing up their other selections as the seasons change. It's great because I have my old favs to fall back on, but can always try something new. The best thing is, they are SUPER dog friendly and allow dogs inside and out. Dogs can usually get water, and sometimes get a treat! Some days there are food trucks, but they are fine with outside food when no trucks are around. Super chill place with a diverse selection. Check it out! read more

This place is fine, the beers are good but the vibe just feels like a bar to me, versus a brewery. It's located in a bit of a strange spot, and it's just not a place I ever want to spend a long time in. read more

Good for one time , may not come back again . Not my cup of beer little sweet for my taste .

This place is great! They are dog friendly, which is amazing! They let dogs inside and out. They provide water for the dogs and treats, also.

So 1st time coming to this brewery, man did I hit the jackpot with this place. The beer is awesome , let me rephrase that, AWESOME!!! The atmosphere, awesome, customer service, AWESOME! And I hope I don't butcher their names but Dani and Craig, if you got these 2, then your in great hands (I can't vouch for the others) Dani and Craig are not only knowledgeable, their customer service skills are the best out of any brewery that I've been to (and I've been to many) they can hold a conversation. Dani was more than willing to give samples to my friend and I so we could find our special beer, craig took us to the back to try the liquor (it's a distillery as well), and man I loved it all. And the kicker, while I'm there they tell me about the crawfish boil that's going to be held the very next day (crawfish is my favorite thing to eat ever). I came back the next day and destroyed some crawfish , beer and enjoyed the vibe that was there. Do not miss out on this gem. read more

Went for a walk, got bent. I went for a walk after my physical therapy appointment in the light industrial / warehouse area near the clinic. These kind of areas always seem to hold hidden gems and man did I stumble on one. Okay boys and girls, just go to this place now - and I do mean now. They open Friday at 2:30 and this weekend is a special weekend because they will be able to sell both their spirits and their brewed beverages. Simply outstanding beer and cider selection with the incredible addition of award-winning spirits. I sampled the Maroon and Bold (I think that's the name...probably could easily been called Marooned and Fold at 9.5%!)...a wonderfully smooth, hop-headed beer. I also sampled the extraordinary, International Double Gold award-winning, Navy Strength, Gunner Ghost Gin. Holy Crow, what a gin. No juniper berries here, just botanicals, unlike anything you've ever tasted...almost needs to be done straight up, maybe with a bit of ice or a splash of soda water. The taste us so smooth that your just not going to want to mix it. In addition, I tried the Bent Anchor Poitin (pronounced, I believe, Poocheen). It is an Irish vodka-type spirit made from potato scraps. And where do the potato scraps come from? Tada, our friends at Anchor Fish and Chips where so many potatoes are slain every day that, well, we had to do something with it! This spirit is like a very light vodka with a slight hint of potato. Very lovely. But, from talking with the Master Distiller (Bartley if I remember correct) and the front office man, Jake, the absolute best is yet to come tomorrow, 10/29, when they unleash their spiced rum and a new brewed item (I think it was a Stout?) about which all the folks there were raving. In terms of atmosphere, I think they are going for a Wisconsin bar-type look which probably suits them well now (I'll talk to Jake about that later ;-)). You might think you're in the wrong neighborhood when you come here...just persevere and you will, indeed, find it ironically located behind the renovation of a warehouse into the Twin Cities Chinese Christian Church. The pub is toward the very end of the warehouses on the left side. Well, I know where I'll be watching my beloved Cubbies in the World Series this weekend! Special cocktails available only this weekend (a special permit was pulled so brewed and distilled items could both be dispensed). A food truck is said to be on hand. Two last things: 1) try the Mule they have on tap...yummy, 2) gotta love a place that has pinball machines, Heggies pizza, and a staff who, during their break, were discussing determinism. Enough said, see you there. read more
