We had such a great time at the Heritage Meadows Open House last week in St. Peter! ๐ป
We poured our Gustie Golden, Red Owl Amber, and First Apostle Porter, and got to share stories (and plenty of smiles) with the folks who call Heritage Meadows home.
Nothing we love more than good beer and good conversation with our community! ๐๐
๐ฝโจ Restroom Chronicles: Volume II โจ๐ฝ
Not all heroes wear capesโฆ some carry wallpaper samples! Big shoutout to Natalie, our interior designer (and Daveโs wife), who brought these restrooms to life and tied them perfectly into the Paddlefish brand.
We thought itโd be fun to highlight them this week because even a quick stop should feel like part of the Paddlefish experienceโฆand because weโre flush with pride about them.
From palette boards to the big reveal, each restroom has its own Minnesota-inspired theme:
โญ The North Star โ bold, timeless and totally stall-worthy
๐ The Aurora โ geometric energy + bowl-d green tones that brighten things up.
๐ The Boundary Waters โ moody gray + water-inspired flow for a calm escape.
Swipe through to see the before โก๏ธ after story of each one. Which one is your next pit stop??
๐ถ โWe fancy likeโฆโ ๐ฝโจ Who says brewery bathrooms canโt have style?
At Paddlefish, weโve got not one, not two, but THREE uniquely designed restrooms, all thanks to our interior designer, Natalie Long (wife of co-founder Dave Long).
Each one has its own aesthetic and feel:
โญ The North Star โ bold & classicโจ๐ The Aurora โ bright & stylishโจ๐ The Boundary Waters โ calm & refreshing
So the real question isโฆ which one is your pick??
๐ถ๐ป Happy National Dog Day!
Bring your pup to Paddlefish this Tuesday and get $1 off your pint.
๐ธ Donโt forget to snap a pic and tag us ๐ @paddlefishbrewing with #paddlefishpup ๐ถ We love seeing your four-legged brew buddies! ๐พ
๐โจ Thatโs a wrap on One Last Splash!
What an amazing day celebrating the end of summer with all of you! From beer poking ๐ฅ, beer floats ๐จ๐บ, fresh-popped kettle corn ๐ฟ, and BBQ ๐ to giant Jenga, coloring tables, and plenty of rockinโ in the sunshine โ๏ธ, we couldnโt have asked for a better day!
A huge THANK YOU to our vendors, partners, and every single person who came out to make it special. ๐

Flagship (and flashback) Friday!๐ป
๐ฆ Red Owl Amber โ 5.3% ABV | 17 IBUs | Smooth, toasty, perfectly balanced. Malt-forward with notes of caramel + biscuit.
Our building once housed a Red Owl grocery store back in the 1960s and 70s and we still hear stories from folks who worked here as cashiers, bookkeepers, and stockers. We even have customers who bring in old relics for us to showcase and also some who sport a Red Owl t-shirt. Who remembers when this corner was the Red Owl? What memories do you have?
From what we know, this Red Owl switched over to SuperValu in 1982, later became Total Entertainment in the 90s (movie rentals anyone? ๐ฅ๐ฟ), and eventually transformed into Paddlefish Brewing after other businesses have come and gone. Remember others?
We havenโt found many photos of the 90sโ2000s era so if you have them (or more Red Owl memories or other photos), please share! We love seeing the history come alive!
Red Owl Amber: Smooth, toasty and owl-ways on point ๐ฆ
No friend? No problem. BOGO means twice the beer for me. ๐บ Thanks @hoppassport
Another great turnout for Open Mic last night! Lots of new folks, plus our awesome regulars. Thanks to our wonderful staff holding down libations, @chasedburkhart / Chase D. Burkhart Music for hosting, and everyone who came out to support the performers and spread the good vibes. #openmic #originalmusic #allgenreswelcome
From St. Peter to the Last Frontier! ๐
Meet Eric Buetow, repping Paddlefish all the way up in Fairbanks, Alaska! Eric made a stop at PF during his Gustavus reunion a couple of months ago and fell in love with our Gustie Golden Ale, as well as the whole taproom. Now heโs proudly spreading the word about our brewery wayyy up north, and we couldnโt be more honored.
Thanks for the support, Eric! Gusties and Paddlefans are all over the place! ๐
Sent to us by PF Lifetime Member, Margot (#34!) Thanks for sharing the love!

Hold the blue button to get your beers faster!! ๐

๐ธ Brewery Fam Moment
Dena (left), Donna (right), and the one and only Bรคrli Jax ๐พ whose name fittingly means โbig bear, protector, teddy bearโ dropped by for some brews and relaxation last week!
Weโre lucky to have such kind-hearted hoomans (and huggable canines) call Paddlefish their spot ๐ถ

๐ Happy Birthday to our own Dude, Danny! ๐บ
From pouring pints to playing sax, writing horror stories to recommending lagers, this guy keeps things smooth, rich, and full of fall flavor, just like his favorite Paddlefish beer: Oktoberfest. ๐
He once played camp counselor, has spherical blood cells (true story), and lives for a Led Zeppelin jam or an IDLES mosh pit. Catch him stacking glasses like a wizard, sharing beer wisdom, or calmly navigating the chaos of Gustavus Homecoming weekend.
His guilty pleasures? Legally Blonde and Pink Pony Club. His dream superpower? Reality manipulation. Honestly, we think he might already have it.
Raise a glass to Danny today โ the man, the myth, the McNutter Butter. ๐ฅ Cheers, Dude!

Still riding high from an incredible day at All Pints North in Duluth! ๐๐ป
Huge shoutout to Will, Danny, and Sarah. They are the troopers who made the trek from St. Peter to pour their hearts out (and our beer) in the summer heat. It was their first APN, and they crushed it. ๐ช
Huge thanks to @danscraftbeeradventures and @doreenmeetsbeer for teaming up with us and helping us out with all of your experience from working at Alloy :) You made the day even more special. And to everyone who stopped by our booth, took some selfies with us, or tried a pint: youโre the reason we love doing this!
And thanks to @mncraftbrewersguild for putting this on each year!

One of the coolest surprises weโve had!๐ป Bill Sampson, a leather artist from Bozeman, MT who we met months ago during a taproom chat, came back today with this stunning handcrafted Paddlefish Brewing sign. He said it took him 93 hours or so to make and that he usually sells pieces like this for over $300, but he gifted it to us just because.
Weโre blown away by the craftsmanship, the generosity, and the connection. Huge thanks to Mike for this beautiful piece of Paddlefish history and to everyone who makes this place what it is. ๐ Being part of this community is something special.
