    Seltzer & West coast IPA
    Steve D.

    Great place! Nice ambiance, really good beers, and great seating. Not to packed together like some smaller breweries.

    The parking lot was pretty full when we arrived, but we found a spot. There was a food truck there and we ordered food from there. Between the 4 of us we tried a few varieties and we liked the flavors. It's a great family friendly and dog friendly place. It was perfect to stop by for a couple hours and spend time with friends.

    One of my favorite places to hang out, get work done during the day, or relax and eat some takeout. They've got a huge, dog friendly taproom and patio with plenty of space for seating and events. I can call ahead to reserve a long table if you've got a large group. They get busy on weekends and during events so be prepared for it to get loud. The owner is often serving up brews and everyone I've talked to is incredibly welcoming and helpful. Great beer and better people. The do a lot of rotating small batches so check back often. They've got a decent amount of parking but it's one way for some of it and can be tricky. They share a space with one of my favorite coffee shops, Base Camp, where you can order coffee or beer any time the cafe is open. No kitchen but some bar snacks and nearby options if you're hungry.

    Happy pup! Post-walk trip to the brewery.

    Unmapped is a great spot for fans of good beer and their 4-legged friends. We love that our pup Griff can come into the brewery with us. Beers are great and they have a wide selection. Taps rotate, but my current favorites include Low Vizibility (hazy ipa) and Purgatory Pilsner. Snacks are available for purchase and food trucks are available sometimes. There is also a great empanada restaurant just a few doors down. Seating indoors includes tables, high tops and bar seating. There is also a large patio for days when the weather is good. Some staff is very friendly and welcoming. Some, not so much. This is one of the places we choose to sit at tables vs the bar.

    Another great Sunday Summer evening at Unmapped on the patio, with the cherry on top of course being the Brick Oven Bus also being there for some delicious pizza! It was gorgeous quite evening on the patio, which was 100% in the shade. We had the Prickly Pear Sour and Purgatory Pilsner both were YUM and so refreshing!

    What can I say....ashamed? I finally stopped in yesterday and it was such a fantastic inaugural visit I am ashamed I've spent years brushing off friends who insisted I get way over to Minnetonka to try Unmapped!! Upon arrival I began chatting up beertender Jason about everything craft beer and all of their taps. Quickly decided "if I'm going to drink my way through the list, build me my first flight for what to start with." Jason did and directed me which order he would drink them in. We discussed the No Trace IPA and Jason said I wouldn't like it. Assuming I wouldn't I insisted it be included as I'm trying to appreciate IPA's and flights are small enough pours. Jason & I built the second flight and after that I was getting full and thought I should quit while I'm ahead. We discussed sours and how I prefer tart... tart as in the hair on the back of your neck stands up like with wasabli. Well Unmapped... your Cherry Lime Sour demanded I slap the bar whilst shouting "YASS!!" ha. It had the tart I look for!! The Quadruplication, a perfect Quad, coupled w dangerously sneaky.... does NOT drink like a 10%!! Watch yourself!!! Another favorite, that left me saying "yassss this one!!!" was the Cocoa for Coconut!!! Perfectly sweet. As I told Jason I had a few favorites, the medal winning No Trace I would likely never order but the rest? I would order any of the other nine!! WELL DONE Unmapped, WELL DONE!! A lot of natural light in the comfortable & inviting, well spaced out large tap room. I asked Jason how the name Unmapped came about? It was a simple but fun reason. THANK YOU Unmapped for such a lovely and delicious afternoon!! Already looking forward to my next visit where I will drink the beers I didn't try and some of my favorites from yesterday!! As I told Jason, no matter how good or bad the beer is, 90% of why I return to a tap room is for who's behind the bar. Jason was so friendly, knowledgable and just an all around delight that I left feeling high praise for the whole Unmapped experience!! Cheers.

    My wife made a meat and cheese tray and their wonderful No Trace IPA!
    Jason K.

    A friend of mine recommended this taproom for a place to try with my wife and her world famous meat and cheese trays. This time she added olives and pickles to the mix. So delicious. I ordered the flagship IPA, the No Trace. Not super hoppy, but super well balanced. Great aroma. A stellar go to beer. After some more prosciutto and some specialty cheese from Costco. (My wife even made a spiced up goat cheese blend with Kickin' Chicken from Costco in it. Could be the best spread ever.) I finished it off with a special Wheat unfiltered apricot beer they had on tap. The apricot was evident more at the finish, but is was a perfect beer. They only had three crowlers left in the fridge, so I am guessing this is a pretty special beer. It was. Great bartender and I got two free stickers. Free stickers go a long way. I trade them with my brother-in-law. Tough life.

    A somewhat newish microbrewery on Excelsior Blvd and just west of the I494 in the Minnetonka side of town. If you're hungry, a couple excellent food options are located next door in the same strip mall. You can pick up empanadas from DelSur (former YEE spot!) or have pizza delivered from Gina Maria's. In terms of COVID-19 preparedness, noticed they had a well spaced out layout for customers to place orders at the bar. In previous years, they had foosball and shuffleboard for customers. Currently all of that has been put away for health reasons. This is a pet friendly establishment with seating for indoors and outdoors. Multiple TVs are setup to watch sports. Overall, employees are very friendly and beer is well priced. I usually get the Quadruplication (Belgian quad) but most recently, I tried the Low Vizibility which was a refreshing NEIPA style beer. Oh and free parking.

    Can't go wrong here!

    Unique brewery where you can pour your own drinks from the beer wall! The ability to do small pours…read moreof a few different options before committing to a full glass is a huge benefit, especially for someone who is just getting into beer! I didn't see any N/A options besides water which is a bummer but I could have missed that. I believe they also had cider and some wine as well. To start you go up and receive a card that is attached to your tab. You then scan that card before pouring yourself a glass or tasting from the beer well and it automatically adds the pricing for the ounces you poured to your tab. The brewery itself is really spacious! Multiple levels, each with a different vibe which I love. When we were there there was live music on the top level and the lowest level was giving chill speakeasy vibes. They also have food options which is nice. We ordered the cookies with milk and they were warm and gooey but took quite a bit of time to come out. Definitely a place worth checking out!

    Another great downtown Hopkins spot! Bear Cave has been growing and improving for the last few…read moreyears and it's been so cool to watch and experience. Food was great as well! We were a little sad to see that the old chip-dip recipe changed; the former recipe was a staple for us and we miss it! The pizza menu changes every time we go and it's so fun to see all the new combinations. We got the brisket pizza and would definitely order again. The combo of the brisket, the bbq sauce, and the pickles/jalepenos was sublime.

The location is super convenient just off 494, and they had amble parking even while it was packed inside! They had some food options inside, but nothing that consisted of a full menu, some snacks, pizzas, etc. They also had a food truck there, which we regretfully didn't try with dinner reservations later that night. But there is something here for the hungry stomach! The beer was delicious. They had a good selection consisting of IPA's, sours, seltzers, some lights, ears, etc.! I had one of their IPAs and was thoroughly impressed as well as their Düsseldorf which was awesome. They had some NA beers and plenty of sodas for those that don't drink or the kids who are with. The service was top notch. The gentleman that was working in particular was super friendly and talkative. Helped choose drinks, and even offers some suggestions for dinner which we took him up on! There was also live music and the perfect kind for a mellow saturday night. Very spacious, and well thought out room plans. Would absolutely visit again!
