I want to thank everyone who celebrated 3 years with us last week. We had a heck of a good time and one of our best Taproom turnouts ever. Cheers Minnesota, we love you! It’s not over, another smashing week is ahead: Wednesday we are releasing our very first sour beer: Cranbeery Kettle Sour. Landon and...
I get asked frequently why I decided to open 10K Brewing. I think it started in the first grade. I remember another student calling me “boss” when we were working on a group project. I always wanted to be an entrepreneur deep down but I always thought you had to be rich or have some cleaver...
Nice Beer. Evil People. Our typical music selection (as with most breweries) consists of Classic Rock, Blues, Jazz, Americana etc. Genres that are easy and lighthearted for anyone to listen to. When trying to maintain a family atmosphere and destination to visit on the weekends, the more aggressive genres get push to the side....
Anokafest Returns One of your favorite beers is back on tap tonight! Our Märzen style Oktoberfest Larger was voted one of the best in Minnesota and is personally my favorite beer that we brew (besides the Wooly Bully of course). Nab a limited Das Boot and net a taller pour now through our Oktoberfest...
2017 was a fantastic year. We had a surge of new faces in the Taproom and although it was a struggle at times, we kept up, improved our beer and service, and we saw those fresh faces as well as familiar ones return. We certainly have some ambitious goals for 2018. If you are reading...

June 10th is our annual 5K/10K run along the Rum River. Tickets are sold out but you can still get in on events all day long! We are releasing a barrel of Wee-Heavy that has been aging for 8 months. Lots of bourbon flavor and some nice oak notes. We are also releasing our last barrel of...
Our Goals Before opening the doors to 10K Brewing we had two goals. With stride, struggle, and success we have certainly exceeded our goal of providing a rotating selection of craft beer with regular new beer releases and returning favorites. We have also succeeded in our goal of delivering a rotating selection of entertainment with...
Nice Pale Ale We have produced 16 batches in our single hop Nice Pale Ale series. The rules for this particular beer are simple. Only one variety of hop used in each batch. No modifying the hop schedule. No modifying the malt bill. This allows the person enjoying the beer to see how each variety of...
When I brewed at home, I used a mix of 1 part bottled water to 1 part carbon filtered tap water. Add a little pH stabilizer and it resulted in awesome beer! When opening 10K Brewing, buying even half of the ~160 gallons of water it takes to make a batch in bottle water obviously...
