Everyone I encountered - from those pouring the beers to those drinking them, were friendly. The vibe is totally positive. 2. The place - we brought a grill, a picnic, launched rockets, wandered the fields, picked pumpkins...it was so great. 3. Kids have fun too. They are welcome, and there is plenty of space to run around, toss a football, launch rockets, explore, catch crickets... 4. The beer. I am not a huge fan of Belgian or farmhouse style beers, which were the selection when we visited, but I know the selection changes frequently, and for not being a fan of these styles typically, I drank the entirety of each of my samples, and it was fun to explore a style that I would not have otherwise done. 5. The prices - totally reasonable. I would go here again in a heartbeat, and totally will.

Oliphant Honees Honees: Oliphant Brewing was founded just over a decade ago in Somerset, WI (which…read moreis practically MN near the Twin Cities). Being an avid reader, I know never to judge a book by its cover, but the artwork on the can is honestly what got me to check out Honees Honees. It's dubbed a peanut butter & honey golden ale, which is an ale brewed with honey and lactose, with peanut butter flavor and caramel color. The artwork that so powerfully snatched my attention sort of conveys that in its own unique and trippy way. Pouring the ale reveals a clear dark gold/amber color. I found the peanut butter to be stronger on the nose than the palate. Taste favored honey, with hints of peanuts, caramel malts, and a sweet (for a beer) finish. It weighs in at 5.6% ABV. Both the artwork and beer itself are Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews

This seemed like the most logical place to stop so we could also see the snow sculptures that were melting along the river. Very glad we did. The space has an industrial feel with what looks to be a great patio in the summer. Obviously not open when it is this cold. It held an interesting selection of beers. I mean interesting in a good way. They were not flavors I necessarily would've expected, but reallyenjoyed everything I tried.. Several beers had a little bit of a kick to them that I like spice and a beer, but many breweries really don't know how to balance it out with the other flavors. That was not the case here. I enjoyed everything I sampled on a flight. They also stock, Candyland popcorn, which was nice to have as we had not eaten dinner yet. I really enjoyed this brewery and will definitely stop again when I am in the area.

Saturday I set out for a short brewery trek of three breweries... I was excited to visit my 363rd,…read more4th and 365th breweries! Quite the array my palate experienced! The first brewery.... fine, just fine, nothing great. The last brewery? Off the charts... fantastic!! Balsam Lake? Yikes..... I arrived to a full patio and quite the busy inside. Good omen, right? Once I began tasting through my flight... two words came to mind...not sure if they're correct or... but they were... Tourist Trap....? I built a flight of four, four styles I commonly order, so I'm familiar with them and they're preferred. My flight consisted of #3 Angler's Amber, #7 Stump Bay Stout, #17 Marges Doppleganger Doppelbock & #18 Haugen All The Honey. The Honey beer was delicious and was he only one I could stomach to want to finish. The Angler's Amber? WHAT is that, is that a Bitter Amber? That is NOT a style....for good reason! This beer I could only take three sips of... in disbelief that it was that bad! The stout and doppelbock....just not good. Three days later and I'm still at a loss for words to describe what my palate was dealing with? Being to nearly 400 breweries I wouldn't consider myself a slouch, nor definitely an expert but when three of four beers are unpalatable... it's not me... it's the beer. Such a disappointing experience. Getting the $16.00 tab for what I considered awful beer sure didn't help ease the unfulfilling feeling. Maybe I should have opted for the Boysenberry Blonde that I debated and a beertender said was her current go-to? This brewery is three years old so...maybe they're still working kinks out? New brewer? I may have to peruse untappd for other beer ratings but at this juncture I wouldn't go back, just bummed out by the experience as a whole.

We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon for wine tasting…read more We were greeted by the owner and he was pleasant. His wife, the owner/winemaker was there as well and stood up to greet us. I believe he said the wine tasting menu is split between wine with grapes they purchased to make wine, wine from other wineries and wine they make from their own grapes. We thought we should try the wines from their property because what is the point of trying wine from someone else. They also have a frozen wine we saw a few people stop in to purchase and people appeared to love it. We should have tried it! The wine flight was served in a little box with small plastic cups and a small souvenir wine glass. I feel terrible saying this but the wine was just terrible. We could barely finish the thimble size tasting of each wine. Perhaps we should have tried the wines they brought in or the frozen wine. They said the winery is up for sale. I hope it is purchased by someone who is passionate about winemaking and can make some delicious wine with the grapes from the property.
