  • Re: Drinking Thread: Three Sheets To The Wind

    I could be considered a beer nerd, but not a snob. There are lines (outside of pranks) that I wouldn't cross. Macro is one I try not to cross. I for sure don't shop at Total Wine. That is a line I'll never cross. Ever.

    That Grape-a-rita...got a lot of laughs, a lot of joking FU's, etc. That was the point.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      exactly. mookie has been known to spend hours at the store searching the cooler for something new. however the family likes either corona or heiney. when mookie visits them he goes along (as well as struggling shots of hennessy - NONSTOP).

      mookie also enjoys his red wine cold. too bad

            It'll be a long while before anything happens, IF anything happens.

                Okay -- thanks. Now, the real question is...is it worth the visit?

                  I think so. Their special releases have dropped in quality since their head brewer left for 3 Floyds, but the mainstays are still good. The food, while good, is overpriced by Minnesota taproom standards.

                  Surly has some great beers. Overhyped overall? Yes. A lot of it comes from them being the spearhead in changing some alcohol laws in the state. They do deserve praise for that.

                    Is there another place in the area that you'd recommend instead? We likely won't be eating there, though if there was a not to be missed brewery/food combo, I'd be open to that. We're thinking Friday -- doing the Como Park Conservatory in the AMish time and beer in the afternoon/evening.

                      The conservatory isn’t Amish. Fair warning.

                        Also, that article doesn’t mean what you think it does. They aren’t in any trouble. They settled a lawsuit. Nothing is going to happen after that. It also sounds like it wasn’t that bad in the first place. They didn’t take tips. They just looked them.

                          $2.5MM payout isn't chump change, but as we have all mentioned: no worries next week.

                          It's worth stopping by for a beer. It IS a great space. Most breweries around here either have food very close by or bring in food trucks, just depends on the brewery. Obviously you can bring food into the breweries from outside sources, if the brewery doesn't serve food.

                              Seriously, though, that IS a big dent.
