🧖 Introducing our SAUNA BEER! A botanical Nordic lager brewed in collaboration with @superiorsaunas and inspired by the steamy stillness of a northwoods sauna.

🌲 Brewed with white pine needles, elderflower, eucalyptus, juniper berries, and birch leaves, it’s a layered yet easy-drinking lager that tastes like sitting deep in the woods after a good sweat.

🌿 At just 4.5% ABV, it’s perfect for crushing without consequence — light, botanical, and crisp.

And yes, we’re 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 🍻

Big moment at Paddlefish—U.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, “Did she try the Vinter Liv?” Yes, and she loved it!

We’re proud to celebrate our craft, our team and our amazing community that built Paddlefish with us. We’re also proud to represent Minnesota craft beer and even prouder to do it from St. Peter. 🍻

🎉 Sunday, June 1st, 2-4pm: Vinter Liv Re-Release Event. One keg remains—when it’s gone, it’s gone! (Until we brew the next batch in a couple of months!)
