The World Whiskey Awards names several whiskeys each year in several categories. We got out paws on their best rated bourbon, blended scotch, and best grain spirit. Will has carried the “best grain spirit” whiskey in the store for the last few years and it really is a great whiskey, but quite unsuspecting. Click for details

The Red River Valley Swanson farm has been continuously farmed by Swansons since 1917. It is a thousand acres of jet-black, abundantly rich soil that produces exceptional rye and heirloom corn. Built in 2013, the distillery sits on what was once a wheat field. The northernmost distillery in the contiguous United States, Far North Spirits makes premium, heritage spirits inspired by Minnesota’s character and agricultural abundance. Located just 25 miles from the Canadian border, we are one of only a handful of estate distilleries nation-wide to also grow our own grains.
We’re going to introduce you to Tiger who will be taking us though the English style ciders for the evening. All of these ciders are from the UK and will range from dry to sweet.

Below you will find the menu that will be updated soon with the cider pairings and the salad.
We’ll be participating in Restaurant Week again this year!

Too much is said about pairing wine with food, and not enough is said about beer. Beer is a fantastic pairing for cheeses and has elements to it that wine can't touch (not that we'll turn wine down with our cheese . . . ).
We will have four perfect beer and cheese pairings for you to enjoy for $20 a flight. With a few likely bonus samplings from The cellar. A beer and cheese experience!
Summer Roses! We have a huge selection so we're going to be pouring them all day for only $4 a glass in the taproom. We'll have 15 roses to choose from. Bring some friends so you all can try a few!
