Time to taste the Best of the Fest

Welcome spring on April 17 (it should be here by then!) by stopping in at Mickey Finn's to taste the winning craft beer from the North Shore Festival!

Hey there, lovers of fine craft beers! We've spent the entire long winter anticipating the taste of that special brew, the winner of the Besley's Home Brew Competition from the North Shore Wine, Beer, Cigar, and Food Festival. Well, wait no more, ale aficionados! Karl Hagglund, the winner with his Quigley's Pale Ale, has been brewing away with Mickey Finn's brewmaster Greg Brown, and it's finally ready, and time to party!

Join the Save Brainerd bunch for a special tasting in the Amber Room at Finn's on April 17 from 6-9! Your $25 ticket buys you a glass of delight, along with tasty bites and great music! And remember, a dollar from each glass you purchase goes toward saving the historic Brainerd Building and making it a community showpiece as the Brainerd Community Center! For more information, go to www.savebrainerd.com.
