Flat Earth Brewing Company

2008 July 4
by Shawn Horton

Our first of (hopefully) many brewery tours this summer, Flat Earth Brewing Company was founded in February 2005 by Jeff Williamson and his wife Cathie. The brewery officially opened in 2007, and they have been working to show the Twin Cities great craft brews ever since. On June 28th, a group of us ventured over to the brewery, located nearly 1/2 mile due west of Summit Brewing Company, not far from the banks of the Mississippi River.

This video is of Jeff Williamson, co-founder and head brewer at Flat Earth Brewing Company. He explains a bit about the brewing process for the 8 beers they offer. Also, Jeff details distribution aspects of the company, talking about The Taste of Minnesota festival happening this week in Saint Paul. He takes questions from the tour group about the brewery’s origins, why he decided to brew, and more. I hope you enjoy this video, my first utilization of Vimeo to integrate my own video content into our blog.
