This Friday and Saturday is our Half-Way to St Paddy`s Day celebration, and we have pints of our iconic Irish Dry Stout on sale for only $5.
Sister Mary-Catherine will be upset if you don`t stop in and have at least one pint.
Please don`t get her in a bad mood. She`s sweet until she`s not.
See you this weekend.

Sure, we have a cool taproom and patio plus our calendar is full of a very wide range of events, which means we have a ton of people coming through and not everyone comes here to drink our delicious beer! (Don`t tell the brewers!)
This is why we offer the biggest selection of NA, soft drinks, water etc of any taproom in the Twin Cities!
We just added NA beer from Lagunitas! Their IPNA is a hop-forward, non-alcoholic India Pale Ale that is brewed with Canadian two-row barley, Munich malt, and English crystal malt with Citra, Mosaic, and Columbus (CTZ) hops for a citrusy, piney, and herbaceous aroma. Yummy.
Come in and try one if you are looking for a great tasting NA option.

We`re celebrating HALF-WAY to ST PADDY`S DAY this Friday and Saturday and as part of the festivities our beloved "Split the P - Second Stout is FREE" offer is back!
Here`s how it works: Buy a Nitro Stout (on sale for $5) and in front of the Padraigs beer-tender see if you can `Split the P` in the Padraigs logo on the glass in one drink.
If you are judged successful, you get a Second Nitro Stout for FREE!
Sounds like a good deal!

If you love jazz, prepare for an evening of swinging, sensual, moody and rousing music that follows the trail of Django Reinhardt`s gypsy jazz.
