I spent a long weekend eating and drinking my way around Duluth, and my favorite brewery we stopped…read moreat was Blacklist! It has such a fun atmosphere, but also a wide variety of great drinks!! 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!

I am not big on seltzers but it was tasty. The flight of beers I got were all SKUNKY. I hate that. It makes me wonder what happened?!?! I didn't finish any of them. They have some pinball games inside. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Looks like that have some food as well. It's a decent size space and there are many seats at the bar. I just wish I enjoyed their beer more.

The beer selection was a little smaller than we expected, but there was still a nice variety of styles, so everyone in our group found something they enjoyed. They also have a full bar with specialty cocktails. The food menu was surprisingly large with lots of unique and fun options to try. The only small downside was that the Brussels sprouts were still a little undercooked for our taste, but everything else was excellent and more than made up for it. Excellent brisket, fish n chips, and build your own burger! The garlic aioli and IPA mustard sauces were definitely memorable. Overall, it's a great spot for good food, craft beer, and a fun atmosphere located right on the pier. We'd definitely come back!

We got on the waiting list and were told it'd be about a 30 minute wait. By golly, we know from the time stamps on the texts that it was 32 minutes total. We were seated outside, and service was fast and smooth from that point. We had the pretzel sticks appetizer, which was fantastic. Very soft, hot pretzels, and the queso was thick and loaded with flavor. My husband had the Canal Park red lager and really enjoyed it. My main dish was the birria tacos, which were quite good but could have used more cheese. Salsa and chips were fine, too. My husband had jalapeño popper burger with fries, and really liked it. Checkout was fast and pleasant.

Fantastic pizza and some good beer too!…read more First time to this brewery and I already love it. The beer, the food, the atmosphere are all amazing. Can't say enough about the pizza. The crust is perfect, thin and slightly crispy while still being soft and chewy. The pizza sauce is so tasty without overdoing anything. I hate it when a pizza sauce is too acidic and you will not find that here. We really enjoyed all three of the pizzas we ordered. I don't want to overlook the beer. Excellent selection of craft beer. All different styles and flavors. I ordered the Oatmeal Stout and their Pils. Both were very good. Looking forward to going back to try more soon. They have a live music schedule, a kids area, excellent selection of games, and an outdoor patio. Highly recommend a visit to Ursa Minor!

I'd definitely recommend making this a stop if you're exploring the local brewery scene.

You pay by the glass, so you can try as many beers as you'd like! I tried the wood-smoked wheat, chili pepper ale, cranfest, and beermosa. They were all great, but the chili pepper was my favorite. 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.

The lines were super short and the employees were very nice. The best part, I think, is that there is something to drink for every person in your group! They had a plethora of fun-named beers on tap, THC drinks, and their house made root beer was fantastic. We decided to bring our own food (some delicious Vitta Pizza) to eat with our delicious drinks. They did have a food truck outside and they also have a couple snacks, like pretzels, for purchase at the bar. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We sat by the fire and learned a new board game. Very cute brewery. Highly recommend.

Delicious poutine, with oozy gooey squeaky cheese curds. I had the smoked fish salad; it had the right amounts of everything and felt like a distinctly Duluth dish. My husband had the fish and chips. I had a bite of his fish, and it was perfect, with great batter and flavor. I would happily come here again on a visit. I can see why this is a city institution.

I usually end up not liking the poutine at places, but will try it. Here, I actually really liked it, and will definitely get it again. The same for the onion rings, they were crispy and not too greasy. We also got the inhouse made root beer. That was quite good as well.

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.
