10 Breweries in Saint Paul That You Shouldn't Miss

Way back in 1986, before craft brewing was even cool, Summit Brewing Company Founder and President Mark Stutrud set out in St. Paul, MN, to make craft beers inspired by old-world brewing traditions and ingredients. Over 30 years have passed since he first brewed Extra Pale Ale—our flagship beer—and it’s safe to say he freaking nailed it. Today, Summit Brewing continues to infuse traditional recipes with modern ingredients, crafting high-quality and consistent craft beer. And because we’re independently owned and operated, we get to make craft beer our way. That means relying on natural carbonation, protecting the foam and celebrating the true dance between malts, hops, water and yeast. It means drinking our beer fresh and cold, because warm storage turns good beer to shit. It means never settling for "good enough." And it means protecting the environment, supporting the community and the arts, being kind to animals, and always having one more beer with our friends and family. Skal!

We are women owned and operated. We have good food that goes with great beer in our warm and welcoming taproom. During the warmer months, we open our large beer garden. We are open ... Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 11am - 10pm Friday and Saturday 11am - 11pm Sunday 11am - 8pm Closed Mondays

Saint Paul Brewing proudly serves hand stirred, fire brewed beer made one batch at a time. We are located in the historic Hamm's Brewing complex with the original North American biergarten. We are dedicated to our Saint Paul roots and the history of brewing that began years ago right here in Saint Paul. Come for the history, stay for the beer!

Tin Whiskers is the perfect place to be for the beer nerds and non-nerds alike. We bring our electrical engineering backgrounds into our brewery from our beer names, listing our ingredients and aspects of the brewing process, branding, circuit board flight holders and how we create new beers. In the taproom we share the stage the beer is in with so everyone knows where the beer is at in its life cycle development. For the thirsty, we will have seasonal offerings, year-round beers, and prototyped small batch recipes at our taproom. Whether our beers are the creation from the brewing masterminds at Tin Whiskers, or a collaboration with a local homebrewer, we promise to always have something on tap that you'll love. Come in and enjoy a pint or a flight of our beers on our circuit board flight holders. You can enjoy our beers at our taproom, in numerous bars throughout the Twin Cities or at home with a growler or 22oz bomber. Tin Whiskers Brewing Company has a home in St. Paul in the historic Rossmor building. Our neighborhood isn't quite downtown nor Lowertown. You can find us in our gorgeous space at 125 E 9th St, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55101.
