Great news, Mike. I think this shows that people can make a difference
by voicing their opinion. Contrary to what has been communicated from
the EP council, et al, I firmly believe this issue was being pushed under
the carpet. Perhaps not by the council, but someone made a decision and
made a phone call to Hops saying their request had been turned down.
Thanks to everyone who wrote--see you all at the Autumn Brew Review!

Update:
Last night the Eden Prairie City Council discussed this. There was
a good
sign prior to the meeting, as there was a Hops growler sitting on
the front
of the council dais.
Bob from Hops gave two presentations and I spoke in favor as a
resident. The Police Chief answered a couple of questions, all for
the good.
It was surprisingly positive. All of the council members spoke in
favor. They now need to draft an ordinance to allow growler sales
and then
turn it into law. No estimate on how long this will take.
