I believe Dan is correct. I think this is going into the new Block-E
development, along with a Hard Rock Cafe. Since my office is across
from this, I can tell you it is not an occupiable structure, yet. The
structural elements are all in place, but the exterior just has rigid
insulation and some EFIS. The hotel has a few pre-cast panels on its
exterior. At this point, there does not appear to be any interior
finish materials in place.
No brewing going on there.

Is this place even open yet in MPLS? I can't
find a phone number for

and it sounds like they are a planned tenant for the new E-block

as a
location yet.
I usually hit Gordon Biersch once or twice whenever I'm in the Bay
Area.
The food is pretty good and they primarily brew lagers which is nice
when
you are looking for something a little different than a pale ale. I
had a
really nice Marzen from GB once in San Jose but I've heard others
complain
about their quality in other locations. YMMV.
