Almost every liquor store in MN does not want to be open on Sunday. We do! We know the majority of people in Minnesota want the convenience of shopping for alcohol on a Sunday. The people want this. It's the liquor industry itself who opposes this. We here at The Four Firkins are listening to you. We are trying to make this happen but we need your help. If you want to see this age old restriction removed from the books here in Minnesota follow this link to find your representative and let them know: <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001i16ZpI5SLgcjldpr6oSFlBhkbtY4fze-2Un6kpxzyGCy sI5--nJT5fkVwOPiMEpaut_hGVUUgIM4fHD9JT2tVD4s29O7TUnbFIeTacTDjXPlWHcRlBQ3xLDE 5EN7_iZaEbO4GDt73K0XZgIMv-GUug==> http://www.gis.leg.mn/OpenLayers/districts/. Make sure you contact the MN legislators(the top two on the list), not the U.S. Legislators (the bottom three on the list). Please do this now! Time is of utmost importance on this issue and next week may be too late. Calling is the most effective, and shows them you are serious, but email and writing snail mail works, too. (Snail mail may be too slow for this.) Thank you!

The Beer Pontiff! Even heathens can be comforted in the loving embrace of the Most Holy Alvey because we are not here on Earth to be judged... we are here to drink beer, and all are welcome within the presence of the Abbey Register. We are only doing one run of these, and when they're gone... well, they'll make an appearance again one day, but it will be sealed up like Walt's Vault. The shirts come in sizes Small-XL and cost $18.99 ea. If you're an out of town fan and want to get one, you can now purchase at our <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001i16ZpI5SLgfRRuYV5ARU55sM6RmXehk-Wv7DbowL9UyD QOGq3f2KEOHRG0vM8JxxWLKiGlkiBX4aee5EhMrm1t6MlpjyeYVlyBMzPp3xwyMX784s3YQNOugr tyKud51eTbuIIipJW80ZRPRRrRUaqrdt-cbrBIVSk0jIhESLOqv7D-52mqXFxQ==> online store.

Yes, Flat Earth's Black Helicopter has landed, and it is loaded with fresh Dunn Brother's coffee to give you extra energy to fight off greys or men in black. This roasty stout weighs in at 5% so it's OK to have a couple. In fact, I hear that if you have more than two, it gives you special powers of telekinesis and MIND BULLETS to fend off the lizard people who control all of us. It's here now! -Bryan <http://img.constantcontact.com/letters/images/1101093164665/travel_winerydi vider.gif> Valentine Pairings! <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs115/1102140918849/img/1308.jpg> This Saturday, February 9th from 5:30 to 7:00 (while supplies last) we will be pairing beer with an assortment of cheeses and chocolates. Want to impress your smoochie-poo? You can even take all the credit for it when you show up at their place with the perfect pairings. Here is a <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001i16ZpI5SLgdnBbVvnH65A21iPAJvA_rMv-6nrui0F67U 8tR4myhq4AzaOKcSz11CYFmWBp3US3-S_qPm_z2avTaHxGSA7Bu8TE9QYVJGf_eCuuj1veo9yFdU Fn3PKOtvJnXAWCoPcfXpFlVZrsvadtUt7LRC2QP0AfCPboioZQg=> link to our events page with the details. If you are not into that level of subterfuge, you can always make this Saturday a date night. Start the evening right with a stop at the Firkins with your main squeeze and sample the best of what we have to offer. As always, tastings are COMPLETELY FREE! Why does beer work so well with cheese and chocolate when wine falls flat? The pun was intended because carbonation is the key. Carbonation in beer acts like a brush, scrubbing away the fat that coats your palate and dulls your tastebuds. With beer, every bite is fresh and you get a new perspective with every sip. We'll see you Saturday! -Bryan <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs039/1102140918849/img/1031.jpg> <http://img.constantcontact.com/letters/images/1101093164665/travel_winerydi vider.gif> Ian's Big Beers Class Feb. 19th. <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs115/1102140918849/img/1309.jpg> Not this kind of big beer. Coming off of the heels of the highly successful "Inspired Beers of Belgium and America" class, our very own Ian Finch will be presenting "Liquid Bread: the Sustaining Beers of Winter." This time around Ian will focus on beer with higher ABV's. Not only will this be a class on the history of the beers, but it will also feature food pairings with these beers and how their flavor profiles developed. Class will be held February 19th from 7:30pm to 8:30pm. The last class sold out within a day of its announcement, and we expect this one will be no different! You can buy your tickets in store, over the phone at 952-938-2847, or <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001i16ZpI5SLgc3VOU2PjGgOnkZNb5PJ3pZqVxkYl0Qstfo i00T9FW9wZrqgPzOUiquibwPbiEjMBwYEVB997Sz-XhGQ0_4TQ4PihPXAVPzf65Wv63adZ2NJ1Mb ZOfuoOpcIMqoFCN9HMTZUvLShC4yzacT4UqpCjR5O-qcAOCPmPw=> online!

We will be celebrating the first time ever you can get Brooklyn Dry Irish Stout in bottles! Mike will be pouring the stout as well as many of Brooklyn's other fine offerings. He even promises to pour sample-size Black & Brooklyn's, a blend of the Brooklyn Lager and the Dry Irish Stout, for anyone that shows up. Be like Garrett Oliver and Defend Beer, be here this Tuesday! -Bryan <http://img.constantcontact.com/letters/images/1101093164665/travel_winerydi vider.gif> 612 Kegs now available! <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs115/1102140918849/img/1312.jpg> The first time I heard about 612 (pronounced six-un-deux or six-one-two) think I was in the hospital waiting for my second daughter to be born. I wondered what their beers would taste like and if they would live up to the legacy of the area code. The time has come! Delivered fresh from the brewery today, we have 1/6 barrels (around 5 gallons) of Bitter Cold IPA, Rated R Rye IPA, and Six Pale Ale! We do not have single serve product yet, but this is an opportunity to be one of the first to get your hands on the newest brewery in the Twin Cities. The kegs will be available for purchase around 4pm today, no sooner, sorry! -Bryan <http://img.constantcontact.com/letters/images/1101093164665/travel_winerydi vider.gif> A thought: forcing us to be closed 52 days out of the year is like the government saying you can't live in your house for all of January and the first three weeks of February, but you still have to pay your mortgage all year.

He then completed an honors degree in Brewing and Distilling at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland, followed by stints at Ireland's first craft brewery and at the Guinness brewery in London. After moving to Minnesota in 2000, McConn spent three years as head brewer at Sherlock's Brewpub before joining Summit in 2003 as a production and project brewer.

FW: Brewery Demo Party 2.0!

by Michael Behrendt

FYI //Mike Behrendt From: Trenk Ebbighausen [mailto:trenkmechanical@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2013 8:38 AM To: Trenk Subject: Brewery Demo Party 2.0! Hello Friends and Family, Last Saturday's "Demo Party" was a smashing success!! (Fun intended). We estimate that demo of the south wing of the pre-statehood brewery formerly known as "Strunk Brewery", "Strunk-Nyssen Brewery" and "Shakopee Brewery" got to 55%. Wow! 22 volunteers showed up, signed the required liability waiver, (YES, there is danger here), and jumped right into the fray. Everyone who was down with going into the underground lagering rooms got the "Hardhat Tour". The bonfire of wood debris is still burning today... We pulled down the rafters and half of the interior floors, separated the material into salvageable lumber, burning wood, recycling, and garbage. Brandi roasted organic brats and sausages and we all enjoyed "Doon Brews" and Schell's (from up the river a ways). Somehow the sound system stayed busy... At the end of the day, most people were asking "When are we going to do it again?" (I wasn't even over the surprise of the first one). So Trenk texted Benn ("the instigator") yesterday, looked at the calendar, and figured next Saturday February 9th, 2013 would be best because of weather (and the following weekend being Valentine's Day). So there it is: Whoever would like to help finish off that wing so we can save it and rehab it into a homebrew/community brew space on it's way to being a microbrewery again someday is invited anytime from 9am on. Cheers!! Trenk, Brandi, Benn, and John Shakopee Brewery 11086 Chaparral Ave. Jackson Twp, MN 55379 612 281 4720 16 attachments - Download all attachments <https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=3bc9b79afe&view=att&th=13caaa0823b56a 17&disp=zip> View all images <https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=3bc9b79afe&view=att&th=13caaa0823b56a 17&disp=imgs> <https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=3bc9b79afe&view=att&th=13caaa0823b56a 17&attid=0.1&disp=inline&realattid=f_hct3q3l40&safe=1&zw> Image removed by sender.

(Sorry, we can only hold your seat if we have your check.) RESERVATIONS: Send check to address above, made out to: "Michael Smith" (As always, all donations go to the artist) BRING: . A non-perishable item for the food shelf . A snack to share, . Extra $$ for CDs if you wish . Musical instruments and voices - if anyone's interested in a jam afterwards. . Beverages I will be tapping one of the brewery's latest creations to share with the brave-of-heart... DETAILS: It is an honor for The Old Kitchen Rug Brewery to be hosting Michael Smith for the SECOND time! I have been listening to Michael's songs ever since I started listening to folk music. He is the author of such classics as "The Dutchman" - a perennial favorite of Steve Goodman's, "Spoon River" - masterfully recorded by Claudia Schmidt, and "Dead Egyptian Blues" - one of my favorite Trout Fishing in America recordings. Mark Richardson does a version of Michael's "Wonderful World of Sex", and I have been performing "Vegamatic Song" for years without knowing that Michael wrote that one too! Michael has been writing and singing since 1956. Originally from New Jersey, Michael now resides in Chicago, where his autobiographical "Michael, Margaret, Pat and Kate" stage play has garnered him four prestigious "Jeff" awards (Chicago's equivalent of the Tony award.)
