The breweries we send people to in Northeast Minneapolis. Part of our full breweries guide and the Northeast neighborhood guide.
A Northeast taproom with a full-block beer garden. Lager program is the focus, the food trucks rotate well, and the live music programming is genuinely good. One of the best public-square experiences the metro has, summer or winter.
A Northeast brewery with a serious sour program alongside the everyday lineup. The patio is large, the rotating tap list is consistently exciting, and the team takes their barrel-aged releases as seriously as the daily drinkers.
A Northeast brewery whose program reaches across global brewing traditions, from Japanese-inspired lagers to German weissbier to American IPA. The taproom is comfortable and the rotating menu always has something you have not had before.
A Northeast cider house with the most dog-friendly patio in the city. They take hops as seriously as they take fruit, the rotating cider menu always has a wild card, and the room turns into a four-legged social hour by 4pm.
The cult Northeast favorite that closed in 2023 and reopened in June 2026 in the former Headflyer space on East Hennepin, with cofounder Rob Miller back as head brewer. Cash-friendly history, a chocolate milk stout people drove across town for, and one of the most missed taprooms in the metro now pouring again.
A Northeast brewery on a 20-barrel system with a 149-seat taproom and full table service, which is still rare for a Twin Cities taproom. The lineup runs from clean lagers to bigger hop-forward beers, and the sit-down service makes it the easy choice when you want a meal with the pour.
