๐ Happy Birthday to the Crowler King himselfโJason Eggers! ๐
Whether heโs slinginโ hazies or stacking cans like a legend, Jason keeps the beer flowing and the party going.
He loves a good DDH, a Guinness in London, and thinks Jaws 4 deserves justice.
Cheers to custom cakes, trampoline tales, and the guy who could definitely handle a beer pool in Austria.
Happy Birthday, Jason! ๐๐ป

๐บ New Beer Drop Alert ๐บ
Katieโs Ale โ 7.2% ABV
We brewed this historical ale-style bock in partnership with the Women of the ELCA to honor the 500th anniversary of Martin & Katie Lutherโs marriage.
๐ Notes of banana & clove
๐ฅ Fermented warm, cold conditioned
๐ Inspired by Reformation-era brewing
$1 per pint supports the Women of the ELCA.
We held a DIY doormat painting night a couple of weeks ago and it was a blast! From โBuzz Offโ to โMoove On In,โ the creativity was flowing ๐ป๐จ
We love putting on unique events like this. Got another fun idea? Drop it in the comments!
Itโs also going to be an eventful weekend, especially this Fridayโฆ
๐บ Katieโs Ale releases Friday @ 7pm (A tasty and unique beerโitโs a German Eisenbock!)
๐ถ Matthew Aitch live Friday @ 6โ9pm
๐ป Also catch us pouring at the Young John Denver Fest in Minnesota Square Park starting @ 5pm
๐ Happy Belated Birthday to the one and only Auntie Wendyโthe legend behind Auntie Wendyโs Kettle Corn and a true Paddlefish favorite!
She just wrapped up her incredible career at Gustavus and is kicking off retirement the right wayโwith a bag of her famous kettle corn and a half drank/half full pint of her go-to beer: Jolly Giant. ๐ฟ๐บ
Wendy, weโre so lucky to know you (and snack on your kettle corn). Cheers to your next chapterโand to another great year โค๏ธ Make sure to raise a glass and grab some of her infamous Kettle Corn in the taproom!
๐ฏ PAUSE CHALLENGE: Try to land on your favorite Paddlefish Flagship Beer! Screenshot and send back when you get the perfect match! ๐บ
Unboxing one of our new beer signs has never been so exciting.
Make sure to try our new Sauna Beer this week! 4%ABV, easily crushable for a hot, sauna-like day.
๐ง Introducing our SAUNA BEER! A botanical Nordic lager brewed in collaboration with @superiorsaunas and inspired by the steamy stillness of a northwoods sauna.
๐ฒ Brewed with white pine needles, elderflower, eucalyptus, juniper berries, and birch leaves, itโs a layered yet easy-drinking lager that tastes like sitting deep in the woods after a good sweat.
๐ฟ At just 4.5% ABV, itโs perfect for crushing without consequence โ light, botanical, and crisp.
And yes, weโre serving it with a cedar stir stick on the side to add a hit of sauna aromatics.
Releasing today at 5 PM, only at Paddlefish ๐ป

๐ฅ We were honored to be back on Kato Living this past Friday to talk about our World Beer Cup win and the return of our gold medalโwinning Scandinavian Raw Ale, Vinter Liv! Huge thanks to hosts Jackson (who couldnโt get enough of the beer) and Nataliya for having us on the show! Your enthusiasm about the win means so much to us.
๐จ Our re-release event on Sunday was a wild one!
We sold out of our final keg of Vinter Liv in just 40 minutes! We know some of you drove a long way and missed out, and weโre truly sorry. But donโt worry, weโll be brewing it again in a few months, and we promise to keep you posted on the return.
๐บ Missed the segment? Check it out [link in bio]!
๐บ And if youโre craving something equally botanical and refreshing, our next New Month, New Beer release drops this Friday at 5pmโa Sauna Beer brewed with white pine, elderflower, birch leaves, juniper, eucalyptus AND cedar wood. Itโs like stepping into the North Woods in a pint glassโcrisp, relaxing, and just 4.5% ABV. More on that tomorrow!
A huge shoutout to everyone who rolled through for our Road Trip Celebration and helped us raise a glass to John Jensen last week! The man is a legendโVW lover, Paddlefish superfan, and cancer survivor.
To mark the occasion, John commissioned a custom trophy for the โ1st Annual Johnny Drive Inโโtopped with the phrase โLet the Good Times Roll,โ a perfect nod to our one-year anniversary theme earlier this year :)
These are the kinds of celebrations we live for at Paddlefish, especially when theyโre all about community.
We had chrome classics in the parking lot, Squid City Slingers jamming inside, VW cookies, and the debut of our custom VW flight boards. Pictured are our two Road Trip Raffle winners who got to take her out for the first spin!
(๐ Want to try the VW bus flight board? Just ask your Paddlefish beertender for a Road Trip Flight!)
Itโs definitely nights like this that remind us why we do what we doโbringing people together over great beer, good music, and shared stories. Whether youโve been here 48 times or it was your first Paddlefish pint, this community always shows up with incredible heart!
๐ Happy Birthday to one of our favorite faces behind the barโRyan! ๐ป
Youโve seen him slinginโ pints and holding it down on busy weekends as Taproom Manager, but did you knowโฆ
๐ง He can wiggle his ears
๐๏ธ Heโs a military vet, former police officer, and now studying nursing (career #3!)
๐ Heโd eat pizza every day, no questions asked
๐ Favorite movie? Christmas Vacation
๐ถ Heโs team dogs, team coffee, and team Jolly Giant Hazy IPA (his favorite beer on tap!)
๐ถ Dream Concert: Eric Church
If you see him this week, wish this guy a happy birthday!!
Big moment at PaddlefishโU.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar stopped by to congratulate our team on bringing home a World Beer Cup Gold for our Vinter Liv Scandinavian Raw Ale!
She also spent time hearing our story and learning the real challenges small breweries face like rising costs, labor, and distribution.
You might be wondering, โDid she try the Vinter Liv?โ Yes, and she loved it!
Weโre proud to celebrate our craft, our team and our amazing community that built Paddlefish with us. Weโre also proud to represent Minnesota craft beer and even prouder to do it from St. Peter. ๐ป
๐ Sunday, June 1st, 2-4pm: Vinter Liv Re-Release Event. One keg remainsโwhen itโs gone, itโs gone! (Until we brew the next batch in a couple of months!)
๐ฃ Big congrats to Jason Heidemann; our Fishing License Raffle winner from our May 10th Fishing Opener Celebration!
He finally reeled in his prize the other day and celebrated the right way, with a pint of Pearly Gates Irish Dry Stout and some sunshine by the bus. ๐ปโ๏ธ
Congrats, Jason and happy fishing! ๐๐บ
