Nestled on the banks of Bassett Creek between the Harrison and Bryn Mawr neighborhoods of Minneapolis, Utepils' 18,000-square-foot site boasts our iconic Fernweh Taproom and a serene outdoor Beer Garden. When you arrive, you'll be free to immerse yourself in a unique craft brewery experience.
At Utepils, we believe that good brewing starts with honoring the traditions of brewers who have gone before us—but sometimes, to know whether something is delicious, you need to experience it yourself.
