I had heard great things about Bent Paddle Brewing's taproom - and it did not disappoint. A huge…read morestage with music set up outside and the inside was extremely expansive. 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. ______

Didn't have many beer options although what they had was good. To me the more relaxed brewery vibe was missing and you couldn't sample any of the beers.

Nothing was bad but probably wouldn't go out of my way to go back.

I was quite excited to see what Duluth has to offer on our recent first visit (especially as a fan…read moreof Bob Dylan's music). Researching different parks, restaurants, coffee places and breweries, Warrior's art caught my eye. Curious to try the beer behind the bottle, we had the chance to drop by on our way southbound to Minneapolis about a month ago. Despite being in a multi-business strip mall, Warrior commands its own space the second you walk in. The owner was incredibly laid-back and welcoming, offering suggestions base on taste palate and providing a couple of free small samples before committing. I'm open to try any style myself, from the lightest table beer to the most robust barrell-aged stout; Warrior's selection runs the gamut in bold, distinct contrast. I highly recommend the flight (even if you're not the biggest beer fan, you have to appreciate the sword-shaped serving board). Personal standouts were the Barbarian Imperial Stout (much less harsh or boozy than you might expect) and the Samurai Red IPA. A short drive southwest of downtown, don't miss Warrior on a trip through Duluth. I may have to battle that commute from STL to make another visit myself someday.

I LOVED the seltzers, particularly the blueberry basil, but the peach hazy IPA and the Razz beer were also amazing! Also, their beers are on the stronger side so take note if you are trying to pace yourself! Now for the fun-- Blacklist also has axe throwing!! It is pretty affordable, too. It cost $100 for my group of 6 to play for an hour. The instructor was also super personable and helpful! He kept it safe but also super fun, and he was able to step in when someone needed help but hang out when we were doing okay on our own. He also ensured no one ever had an empty glass and everyone was having fun!! I would recommend Blacklist to absolutely anyone, and would totally come back when in Duluth!

While walking around Duluth prior to All Pints North I made a pit stop for a flight. Peach Hazy A Hazy IPA with Peach that brings you back to sitting on the beaches of the lake eating a summer beach. No. 15 Pale Ale: A down to earth original Pale Ale with lovely orange and tropical fruit notes, with a nice bitter backbone. Or de Belgique A Belgian Gold Strong with a touch of sweetness with waves of bitterness and malt flavors. Finally We Got our IPA: A West Coast IPA with pleasant notes from California yeast and bright hop notes. ________

This little dive bar in Superior, Wisconsin offers cheap and tasty burgers and loads of history. If…read morethis place could talk, I can't even imagine the stories it could share. There are so many knick-knacks that probably have so many neat stories to go along with them displayed throughout. It reminds me of those seek and find books that I loved looking through as a kid. This is the place that your father's grandfather went to grab a beer after busting his butt at the docks all day to provide for his family. No fuss and no frills, you get good service and good burgers while surrounded by nautical flair. You know this place is good because it gets busy fast. It's not the largest place but there is a patio outside for overflow seating. They don't take cards for payment, so make sure you bring cash. The burger menu offers classics as well as some unique twists such as green olive and cream cheese (as seen on TV) or jalapeno popper. The menu isn't large but offers the usual dar food fair. So grab a seat at the bar, get a good beer in-hand and strike up a nice conversation with the person next to you while enjoying a tasty hot, hot burger.

Continuing our two month motorhome trip, we find ourselves in Superior, WI for five days. When I…read morefirst saw mention of Anchor Bar, I wondered if it was a location of the Anchor Bar and Grill in Buffalo, NY (IYKYK). It is not associated in any way. I persuaded my wife to go for an early dinner. I told her my perception was a "dive bar". She wasn't too pleased and I told her maybe an "eclectic bar" would be a better description. Yes...an eclectic bar. Cash only with an ATM at the ready with only a $2.50 service fee (my bank refunds all ATM service fees). We got the last two seats at the bar. There were two people working the bar and they were extremely welcoming, friendly, and attentive. We are from Texas and as soon as I open my mouth, you can see the "look" on their face. We both were very glad we went. My wife ordered the California burger and I ordered the mushroom and swiss cheese with the addition of sauteed onions and bacon. My burger was absolutely delicious. My wife really enjoyed hers, but mentioned she wished she had ordered it medium. The fries were obviously hand-cut and I assume on the premises...hot and delicious. Don't worry about plenty of ketchup. The bar had several, very large bottles of Heinz ketchup within easy reach. Plenty of rolls of paper towels. We ordered two Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy drafts; nice and cold. They use a very unique pint glass with a hole and magnet in the bottom. The glass is placed on the machine and it is enters through the bottom. Never have seen this before. Ambiance? Very eclectic with a nautical theme. I loved this place! Again, both servers at the bar were very attentive. Never walked by without asking is everything OK, or if there was anything we needed. This is a must when in Superior or Duluth. Would return again and I highly recommend.

It had a nice, spicy aftertaste. They don't have food (aside from pretzels and other bar snacks), but you can order outside food to enjoy with your drinks.
