    Angry Line Cook is happening this day with my Juicy Saga.
    Steve T.

    So I stopped here after I was at the dog park with the hounds. Angry Line Cook brought me in and it was quite enjoyable. Over the years I've had many amazing beers from Summit. I'm big fan of the Oktoberfest, the Winter Ale, and especially the stout. Up until covid, it was the unicorn beer as it been only available via keg at local restaurants and here in the tap room. Plus, this flavor was sometimes available via nitro. So good. This time around they even have a rendition of it barrel aged. So silky smooth! Another one of their popular brews is Saga. They are starting to offer this with other hops and such, but the one thing I really like about it is that one time one of their long time brewers, dry hopped three different casks. It was such a cool way for myself, the casual drinker, a way to experience different hops. Of the three I had, I realized I'm not a fan of Cascadian hops. That pine thing is not me. Mosaic? I like those. The other one? I don't remember. Anyway, tours are offered, you just need to sign-up. The one thing I wish for here, and all breweries in the Twin Cities is that I wish the beers were all a buck or two less since everything is coming straight from the teat. But since the market is letting that happen, I don't see that changing. If you get the chance, I recommend checking it out. Parking is easy and the beer is always delicious.

    Nice job on the merch but out of their flagship tacker!

    My wife and I are doing a brews trip from Fargo ND (we are from Austin TX) through the Twin Cities and a couple in WI. Today we stopped at Summit Brewing in St Paul MN. Our hunt is for good beers and Tin Tackers. I don't usually post if a place is "out of tackers" but we enjoyed this stop so much we needed to give them their due. The service was great and the ladies tending bar were great. The beers were amazing too. We didn't try their food truck but it looked good too. The ladies provided us with a list of breweries to try for tackers which was very cool of them. If you're in the Twin Cities stop in and give the folks a chance to show you Minnesota Nice! Nice place for beers, lots of parking and great service. Thank you Summit!

    I've always enjoyed coming to Summit . I also appreciate that they have several non alcoholic beers to choose from now and they actually taste delicious . I couldn't decide which one I wanted to try so I appreciate the bartender having knowledge and insight . Cheers ! I also think the attention to having a clean bathroom for the ladies to use is nice and it's stocked with any products you may need . It's the little things

    Went on a tour during our visit and were very pleased! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, especially since it was her first-ever tour she's guided! Afterword she left us select which beers we wanted to try for our flight since it was our anniversary, which was very nice of her. The taproom (ratskellar) was filled with history and awards all around that were fun to look at, would definitely recommend!

    My buddies and I were on a bus tour of the history of St. Paul Brewing put on by the Minnesota Historical Museum. Super cool bus tour and fun. The first stop was the newer Summit brewery.I have been here before when they used to host our homebrew club's awards ceremony. I have met the owner multiple times and he is always super cool. They give you 4 chips for 4 7 oz brews, I got a specialty Australian lager for the tour, which was awesome. They showed us the boiling kettles, the bottling line, the fridge, basically everything in a brewery. They also have great food trucks that show up to soak up the booze for when the tap room opens. Gotta love good food and beer and they have some outside seating when it is a nice day outside. The owner's kid gave the tour and she was super nice and had a lot of good levity on the tour. At least I think it was the owner's kid. The beers were fantastic and I really enjoyed the slide show showing the history of the brewery from where I remembered them on Summit Ave. in St. Paul.

    Great brewery tour into the production floors of the brewery and bottling/canning rooms, as well as the cooler. You get to see a lot of things you wouldn't on a normal brewery tour. Also, they have special beers in the taproom that aren't distributed so you have the chance to try rare brews. The taproom is very big and has all types of games to keep you busy. One of the best brewery experiences I've ever had!

    Good brews, friendly atmosphere, free entertainment (the day we were there-bagpipes!), clean, great store of Summit items, friendly staff...what's more to want? On this visit I was the designated driver...so no beer for me. I still had a GREAT time! I went to check out their Summit store of clothing and things you never knew you needed with the Summit logo on it. The super nice staff in the tiny store was interesting to talk to-we chatted about the vinyl albums he had playing. No pressure to buy something, he even pointed out to other shoppers the sales rack (and great deals). We played one of the games with new friends we met there. Making new friends, right? I love that they also have games & puzzles for the kids. I'm looking forward to visiting again in bicycling weather! They have a nice outdoors area that we can bike to!

    All-in-all a pretty fun tour once things got rolling and we branched away from our initial tour guide to another that was much more knowledgeable and entertaining. The tour itself lasts roughly 45 minutes to an hour and is engaging and informational - even for those that have been on a number of brewery tours. At the end of said tour you get to sample 3 beers of your choosing and at your leisure. Of course, this is always the best part of any brewery tour - though it would be nice if you could use one of your beer tokens prior to or during the tour. I'm not saying I would have learnt anything more on the tour, but I would have been happier (though I don't blame Summit for not wanting inebriated masses running through their brewery). As an aside, my rating is also representative of my preference for Summit, or somewhat lack thereof. They make a consistent product and are the biggest game in town, but there are better and more innovative breweries that will usually be getting my greenbacks (though I hope they keep up the unchained series). Also, if you want to go on the tour on a weekend be sure to make your reservation far in advance of when you want to go.

    Great beer and great location in downtown St Paul. Stopped for a couple of beverages before…read moreheading to a Saints game. Found a great table with wooden bench seating on one side and high top chairs on the other side. I mostly went here to appease my hubby - he loves beer but I found a gluten free option - a sour beer that tasted like a mimosa! I don't know how they did it but it was delish. Side notes: You have to order at the bar. No table service. Right next door is Dark Horse Bar and Eatery, you can even see directly into the restaurant through the windows all long the side that look like mirrors. Service was friendly and fast too!

    We were on a bit of a brewery tour through the area and finished our night at Barrel Theory!…read more Some street and paid lot parking nearby in this lively neighborhood! The interior is casual and approachable, with fun wall art, TVs with live sports, and people playing board games and socializing. We bellied up to the bar, and while our beertender didn't pull us any big winner pull tabs ;), they were awesome to converse with during our visit! The beer leans towards a wide variety of Hazy IPAs, which is one of our favorite styles, so we were in heaven! We tried a few different beers during our visit, and all were delicious! The big surprise was their Tropical Sour, which had a delicious citrus and island vibe to it! We took home a four pack to enjoy all summer long! A great spot for a pint if you're in the area and looking for a great craft brewery!

    Plant Bingo is a must!…read more Check the website to RSVP. You have to RSVP online to hold your spot. You can still come and hangout even if you don't play bingo or if it's full but recommend RSVPing in advance It's fun- 10 rounds and a coverall at the end You win plants but if you tie with someone you usually get something- ex. Candy :) Check in at 5:45pm. Recommend getting there early to get a good seat especially if you have a bigger group Couch areas, tables, bar seating A vendor comes around with homemade burritos, tacos, tamales and rice for a good price! And they are tasty! Sometimes they have a food truck. Everytime I go to bingo the burritos are there. Vending machines in hallway available Lots of drink options and good seltzers if you don't drink beer Free parking lot, free street parking or nearby lots Connected to cancan wonderland and other businesses

The beer servers were very kind and patient when there was an extremely long line and there were a lot of beer options and the ones I tried were all great. I can't wait to go back some day!
