While surfing the BA forum, Al, bar manager at Blue Nile in Minneapolis, posted a thread. I will be heading there tonight.

Here it is, gang, the final line-up for the final weekend of the Blue Nile’s 20th Anniversary celebration. It’s a reprise of last year’s Ale Saint’s Day, which fell on Nov. 1, All Saint’s Day. Since that day is a Sunday, and this Saturday is Halloween … it’ll be called Ale Hollow’s Eve… and start the day before.

Surly Darkness 2008

Lion Stout, from Sri Lanka

Also, we’re kicking off with a firkin of Surly Furious dry-hopped with Simcoe.

Plus, anyone arriving in costume any of the three days, gets a pint on the house!
Starts 4 pm, Friday!

Cheers,
Al

    Just to be clear, I’m not the owner, just the bar manager.
