A refreshing look at the history of German Uppertown in Saint Paul featuring the city's foremost adult beverage: BEER!
About this Event

Just in time for Oktoberfest! Hear the backstory of how Germany’s most pedestrian beverage became an economic force in the saintly city nearly a decade before Minnesota reached statehood.

It’s a recipe for a refreshing and informative afternoon on the history of Beer Here (or as they say auf Deutsch, “Bier Hier”)!

Explore the layout of old German Upper Town and uncover the adventures (and misadventures) of some of it’s earliest denizens. Discover why the Capital city had…and still has… all the best ingredients to create such fabulous Beer Here!
