    Excellent brewery in the canal area. It is solar powered. They have a full menu. I eaten here several times when I visit Duluth. You also have a view of Superior, boardwalk, paved bicycle paths to view from the patio.

    Hop Passport Stop #?? (I'll have to run numbers later to get this caught up for next time) for MN on the Hop Passport Brewery Tour Amazing Brewery Race We stopped in to try to have a couple of brews & wait out the rain a bit, before officially getting started on the Lake Superior Circle Tour. Pack Stacker Stout - 4 Lake Haze - 4 Service was decent and we did take a look at the menu but opted to skip the food. The outdoor seating is great & the views are spectacular. We met several friendly patrons- a couple of locals & a few passer-throughs, all of which were happy to chat about the area, the Lake &, well, beer...

    I will keep this somewhat short. This place is just plain fun to hang out at. What is not to like? If you are staying in any of the myriad of hotels along canal street, you can walk there. The brewery is located right off the pathway, and you have a wonderful view of the lake. The beer is always fresh and well made. There is a beer for all: malty, hoppy, sour, crisp/clean. They have a full bar for those who don't like beer (gasp!) The food is decent bar food. been here multiple times and either ate appetizers or an entree. I walked away plenty happy every time.

    Our always go to spot to grab lunch when in downtown Duluth. Not only do they have great food but also great beer! No wait for a Sunday around 12:45 which was awesome. We sat inside as some weather was coming towards us. Service was great. On this outing, I ordered a Reuben on gfree bread with fries. They face these thick soft (on the inside) delish fries. Very filling. The sandwich was perfection! The kiddo was happy about his kids cheeseburger option. He also got chocolate milk. Yum. I got the mule cocktail on the menu. Delish for not being in a copper mug. Lots of public (pay lots) in the surrounding area areas. $6 for 3 hours. Beautiful patio if the weather is nice and great walking path to view the lake behind the building.

    Wonderful service, thank you Lexi! Dog friendly outside seating, casual atmosphere. Enjoyed a flight of seltzer, light beer, octoberfest, and a cream ale while the bfenjoyed the ipas. The dips are great, the mac cheese is bland. We wrre going to get a grilled cheese n tomato soup but learned it wasn't vegetarian- I sincerely appreciated Lexi checking that for me.

    Quick stop here before the concert on the ship tonight. We were seated by the server station that constantly had loud noises from plates, ice machine and foot traffic. Not a great first impression. It's obviously that they cater to the tourist with a large menu that has so many options, which is never a good sign. We decided to go somewhere else for dinner, just had a beer and an app. The Hazy Lakeside IPA was disappointing and barely had any flavor. Not a great relaxing ambiance if you're looking for somewhere you can enjoy a nice dinner. But it's good for families and large groups. There's way better restaurants and breweries in the city to settle for this.

    I'll start by saying that the location can't be beat and the service was really quick and friendly. Outside of that everything else is just "OK" but you're paying a premium for that harbor view. It's your quintessential tourist-trap and you should expect food and prices to match. It reminds me of a resort restaurant or a spot that is supported 90% by corporate happy hours. If you're with a large group of people and need to accommodate a large range of diets/preferences this is a solid choice. Otherwise there are a bunch of better (and cheaper) options around, in my opinion.

    Great beer selection & has TVs for sporting events. Saw the people next to me get Nachos & they looked large. Was visiting Duluth for a long weekend with my fiancé & this was one of the few places that had TVs to watch the ending of the later NFL games. The sour beer was amazing.

    The positive- the server was great! A nice place - clean and not super loud. The pretzels and beer cheese dip were awesome- The ok- the dip seampler was mostly great. The guac was kind of bland. The hummus was yum and the cheesy dip was so tasty. The "crudités" were simply carrots and celery. My friend's burger was good apparently and the portabella burger I had was ok. The mushrooms were good but I feel like there was some meat leakage onto either it or the bun. I'm vegetarian and have not had meat for years. I had an off taste on that bottom bun. The French fries were ok but why so thin?? Idk they didn't stay warm too long In reality- pretty typical brew house food. But the people were really nice

    Beer cheese soup
    Lindsay R.

    Love this place. When we're in canal park this is our favorite place to eat. I've tried several items on the menu and like all of them. The service is usually fast and good. We typically always eat on the patio because my son likes climbing in the rocks while we wait for our food. This time I wasn't as happy with a couple of the items or the service so I took a star off. The birria beef nachos were yummy and had a good amount of meat on them. The beer cheese soup was lacking the flavor of beer (yes I know the alcohol gets cooked out) that I tasted in other beer cheese soups so that was disappointing. It actually had more of a bacon flavor so if you like bacon cheese soup I recommend it. The Buffalo blue Mac and cheese with chicken was not well put together. All the blue cheese was in the middle on top but we didn't know that until we got almost half way through it. It would have been nice to not have put the chicken on top of it so we could see it or mix it in before serving it. The service was incredibly slow this time. We waited at least 10 minutes to meet our server and another 20 to order then at least 40 minutes for our food. It was Sunday on Labor Day weekend so I cut them some slack. If it happens again I'll update this or post a new review.

    Service was very good. My server made recommendations when requested. Great ambiance. Not busy. Outdoor area looks fun although it was too cold for me so I stayed indoors. I had the cheese curds. Probably one of the best I ever had. Love their pale ale. I had a burger with fries. Fries were full of flavor. The burger was very good too, just needed a bit of salt and pepper but not a deal breaker. Highly recommend this place. I would go back for sure.

    SWEDISH CREAM
    Felicia B.

    Had an amazing time at CPB Co.--great food, great beer, and a cozy vibe that makes you want to stay awhile! We started with the cheese curds--crispy, golden perfection! Lightly breaded and fried just right, with a creamy chipotle sauce that added the perfect kick. For the main course, the fish and chips were a standout. The Lake Superior whitefish was super fresh, with a crispy craft beer batter that didn't overpower the fish. Paired with Northcoaster fries and their house-made tartar sauce--classic, comforting, and done right. Ended on a high note with the Swedish cream--a chilled vanilla bean custard topped with lingonberry sauce and seasonal fruit. Silky, rich, and not too sweet. Bonus: it's gluten-friendly! Of course, no brewery visit is complete without trying the beer. We had the Foggy Jack Porter--smooth with hints of chocolate and coffee--and the award-winning Nut Hatchet Brown Ale, which lived up to the hype. Nutty, malty, with notes of toffee and caramel--absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this spot for great eats and top-tier brews. Will definitely be back!

Bent Paddle Brewing Company is a family-owned and operated craft brewery and taproom in Duluth, Minnesota. The brewery opened in May 2013 and uses Lake Superior water to brew it's beers and hemp beverages. Bent Paddle's mission is to create a unique craft beer experience while also being sustainable for the business, employees, environment, and community. And they deliver on it all. I got a flight to enjoy some of their more limited offerings. Munchin Pretzels: An Oktoberfest beer brewed with traditional German Malts and Hops. I get toasted bread malt character with a bit of sweetness, but rounded out by a hop bitterness. The malt profile is definitely the forefront and I wished I had a pretzel to go with it. Infinity Stuf: An Oatmeal Stout that they went all out with 100 pounds of Oreos. Nutty oatiness, chocolate, and medium fullness. I appreciate it not being a Pastry Stout, but still get lots of Oreo character. A Beer of Their Own: A Hoppy Pale Ale brewed in collaboration with a Bar Of Their Own in the Twin Cities. Tropical fruit forward - primarily melon and cantaloupe, with a nice finish. Stratarado: A Hoppy Pale Ale brewed with Strata and El Dorado (get the name?). Tropical fruit, pineapple, some sweetness on the tongue. Liked this one a lot. ______

I like a crisp, refreshing, clean tasting pilsner, and theirs has been perfected.

I can wax poetic about wandering around the building but, that can be for another time. The brewhouse is a cool place to hang after you've become weary of hitting all the shops on Canal street. Nestled in the old brewery you will experience first and foremost some solid beers (take some crowlers home with you), and some decent food. I think we at lunch here three times? I think one kind of gets tricked into eating here. One starts with a couple beers, then an appetizer, and the next thing you know, you're onto an entree without giving it a second thought. Honestly, I don't think I had anything or tasted anything that was bad. My favorites here are: 1. Poutine: fries, cheese curds, bacon and gravy? that is always a winner. 2. Elote Dip is super good. I'd fight somebody for the last scoop of the dip. 3. the Pretzels are good. Love the cheese sauce....I would ask for mustard too, but that is just me. 4. Pimento Cheeseburger is a favorite like the little bit of kick it offers with the Jalapenos, and it was made medium rare for me to boot I did try a bit of the Wild Rice burger. It was OK, non-meat options are not my gig for a burger. the person who ordered this, truly enjoyed it. I also want to mention the their beer is fresh, well-made, and there is usually a taproom only beer available. I have missed it the last few years but, they had a barleywine that was outstanding. I hope that comes back. If you're in Duluth it is totally worth the stop. Eat some food, drink some beers, buy some merch and support this local treasure.
