Weekly Menu 11/21 - 11/26/11

This weekend marked the long awaited opening on the new Fulton Brewery in downtown Minneapolis. Fulton Brewing is one of those micro-brewery success stories you are hearing more and more of these days. Four guys start brewing in their garage with dreams of their own brewery. A few years later, here they are with beer on tap at almost every local bar and restaurant, bottles available in stores and now their own brewing facility with tasting room and growler sales. It couldn't have happened to a nicer group of people either!

A continuous stream of people braved the first snow of the year to celebrate the occasion and pick up their growlers of Sweet Child of Vine, Lonely Blonde and Libertine.

They've turned a 1950's warehouse into a clean modern brewery.

Matt is certainly happy with his growler of Libertine. The mayor of Minneapolis even declared November 18th Fulton Beer Day.

    You know, growler is sometimes UK slang for a woman's pink bits. So this post had me confused until I got to the picture of Matt!

    Have a lovely Thanksgiving!

    LOL! I will have to keep this growler info in mind and joke with my British friends about this. Happy Thanksgiving, Kat & Matt. Safe travels & happy eating, too!
