Brewery Tours

the finnegans experience

Breweries of one form or another have been around since time-immemorial; indeed, the argument continues to rage whether early farmers 12,000 years ago first made beer or bread. But a brewery is also a home, a place where the magic happens and we want to share our story and the story of beer by inviting you to join us in the FINNEGANS EXPERIENCE.

Wicked Twisted Berry with berries

We are currently unable ot offer Brewery Tours, due to the upcoming changes and move.  If you have a VIP Brewery Tour certificate, please bring it in with you to the Taproom before 8/31/24. 

We will honor two pints or one flight on the house!

With your Welcome Beer in hand, your guide will begin the tour out in our fantastic courtyard patio area by weaving the backstory of FINNEGANS as a woman-owned business, and our Philosophy of doing good with beer with the heritage of brewing in Minneapolis. Then into the brewhouse itself, we explore the history of beer making from ancient Mesopotamia to Europe, and on to the Americas. The guide will demonstrate the process, show you equipment used by a state of the art facility and have you hold and experience the raw ingredients. We finish up in our Brewers' Den Lounge Bar where you will enjoy a sampling of our various styles, and hear how each came to be - what is an IPA or a Stout, how did Lager get its name and from where. Everyday is a school-day, and in what better college to learn than a brewery and a couple of ales?
