Summit Brewing Company

About as classic as St. Paul craft beer gets. The beer my dad drank in the 90s is now the beer we drink together. Beer hall was never really built to be a taproom, but excited to see updated space in 2018. There are some great long-time beers like Great Northern Porter, and they've upped their game in recent years with the Unchained series and new entries to stay competitive. 2018 also brings change to the beers in rotation, but so far so good on the latest newbies. Great patio for dogs too!

Being conscious of driving safely and not over consuming, I held on to one of my free beer tokens after touring Summit. Today I was in the area and decided to stop in to claim my free beer. I was told I could not redeem it because Summit is now charging for the tour and I did not pay for my tour. So what? You gave me a free beer token. Why should those changes nullify my free beer token? 1 Star. Not impressed with Summit’s customer focus. I think I will have a hard time purchasing this brand in the future knowing it’s about profits, not customers. I’m now enjoying a Ballast Point Sculpin down the street instead of redeeming my token and then buying a flight from Summit. Mmmmm.

Doing the free tour is fun. I've been a couple times bringing new people. Unfortunately some tour guides don't do as good as others. I think it is a volunteer thing so I don't fault them too much.

Tours are quick, informative and fun! The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable of the beer and history of Summit. Beer hall is also a great place to hangout enjoy the beer.

Nice beer hall experience and great pricing on the beers. Decent selection (about 10-12 beers on tap), but like many places subject to the whims of a random food truck.
