Tonight, we’ll be hosting the Rusty Taco food truck starting at 4pm. They have a variety of mouth-watering tacos to satisfy all your taco(ee) needs.

2014-07-18 13.38.34In addition, we’ll be tapping a pilot batch of our new Gluten-Free Stout as well as our Blackberry Infused Pyro. Everyone said they wanted a stout, so we made it imperial! Tastes like chocolate and punches like Tyson! You will need a few tacos after a pint of this beast! (10.5% abv)

This weekend’s tap selection:

  • Pyro American Pale Ale
  • Fused Lime Shandy
  • Fused Orange Blossom Honey
  • Fused Blackberry
  • Imperial Stout (Pilot Batch)

Cheers!

Return of Food Truck Fridays

That’s right folks. After a brief hiatus (and a holiday), we are back in the business of bringing you delectable offering from the local food truck community. Tonight, we’ll be hosting the Hot Indian Foods truck who was named 2013’s Best New Food Truck by Minneapolis/St. Paul Magazine.

To compliment the arrival of Hot Indian Food, we’ll be tapping our latest pilot batch of our India Pale Ale. This unfiltered IPA focuses on balancing hop characteristics against a floral malt backbone. The hop flavor is medium and slightly grassy with a trace of sweet citrus. The bitterness lingers as the fruit drifts into softer earth tones.

This weekend’s tap selection:

  • Pyro APA
  • Fused Lime Shandy
  • Fused Orange Blossom Honey
  • Fused Raspberry
  • India Pale Ale (Pilot Batch)

Cheers!

Happy Independence Day

Been Busy Building a Bodacious Bounty of Beautiful Beer

See how we alliterate in an effort to placate our belate(d) news 😉

First off, everyone here at Burning Brothers wishes you a happy 4th of July. We wish you the best celebration and hope it will be a safe one. Note that we will be closed on Friday, July 4th to give our staff a much needed day off. Make sure to stop in the taproom before 8pm on Thursday for any growler fills for your Independence Day events (pint sales until 9pm).

Secondly, when we re-open the doors on July 5th, our regular Saturday taproom hours will change to 2pm to 8pm. While we liked the convenience of the old schedule, we realized that many of you were just getting your taproom mojo going when we closed the doors. We appreciate your patronage and your feedback and hope you enjoy this new schedule.

  • Thursday: 4pm to 9pm (Growlers sales stop @ 8pm… it’s the law, sorry!)
  • Friday: 4pm to 9pm (Closed 7/4/14)
  • Saturday: 2pm to 8pm

Next, the more observant of you may have noticed that we have been working on having Food Trucks Fridays be a regular thing. Everyone we invite serves a selection of gluten-free options, so you are welcome to bring your order in and enjoy it with a pint. We keep a schedule of which trucks and when on the events section of our website. Here’s a sneak preview for July:

Speaking of food, we’d like to remind everyone that we are a 100% gluten-free facility, so please refrain from bringing any outside food that can’t be verified as being gluten-free. Have questions or need clarification, please ask. Thank you!

Last, but certainly not least, we wanted to welcome our 2 new brewing assistants Tina and Andy to the crew. They have both been working hard to learn the in and outs of the brewing process and keep impressing us in new ways daily.

Also, we have introduced a few more options in the tap room with our summer infusions (Lime Shandy, Orange Blossom Honey, Raspberry, etc.). In the works we have an IPA and a Stout and so far they are both tasting great! The IPA will come out of the gate first with the Stout a week or two behind. We will continue to brew small batches for the taproom but are also working on getting our Coffee Ale into cans!

Thank you all again for your continued support of the business and the vision we share, Beer on!

As always, if you have specific questions, drop us a note via EmailFacebook,SteganographyTwitter or Google+.

Cheers,
Burning Brothers
