How much do we like Halloween (Samain)?
We love it so much we`re starting our celebration this Friday!
(yeah, we know that Target put out their Halloween decorations in June, so we aren`t too worried about pre-mature celebration embarrassment)
Regardless, we have a FUN Halloween planned, so let`s get the party started this weekend with @artbeagleband!
See you Friday.

We provide an inviting community space, and host a very wide range of events, honoring the centuries old Irish tradition of being the `public` space for our community (why they call it an Irish `Pub`!)
This means we have a ton of people coming through Padraigs and not everyone comes here just to drink our delicious beer! We get a wee little chuckle when we read that going to a public event space and not drinking is a "fad" or a "trend" or a "Gen-Z thing."
Anyway - this is exactly why we offer the biggest selection of NA, soft drinks, water etc of any taproom in the Twin Cities!
We recently added NA beer from Lagunitas, both their IPNA and Hazy IPNA which are delicious. We also offer NA beer from Go Brewing and of course our favorite -Guinness Zero plus a very wide range of soft drinks, waters, coffee drinks, kombucha, switchell, etc.
We gotcha covered! You can call it a Trend, we call it Tradition.
Either way, get your butts in here,
