Big Wood Brewery hopes to set up a taproom in White Bear Lake (zoning code update required), Northgate Brewing is opening early this fall in Northeast and will make English session beers, DeRusha digs Cafe Levain and praises the short rib burger, a construction boom in Lowertown could bring some new restaurants and bars, Madison will soon be home to a local grenadine by Quince and Apple and a Death’s Door Spirits distillery, and why you should grill clams, cheese, and other crazy stuff.
Craving sake? Keep an eye out for @ScottPampuch’s tweet contest for the @MotoI2Go gift cards he won from us yesterday; @LiftBridge releases this year’s MN Tan (and lets you know where to get it), @Celebr8nGenr8n gripes about [unexpectedly] extended rentals, @PunchHighland continues their wine and appetizer promos, and @France44Cheese upholds his cheesemonger code of ethics.
