If you ever find yourself in Duluth, Minnesota, the New York Times has some advice. Not on how to find long lost relatives of Scandinavian ancestry, but I’ve been told they are easy to find in the area. No, as this is a beer blog, I would like to recommend their article on a beer route from Duluth to Ashland, Wisconsin, covering 70 miles and four micro breweries.
There is a note in the article that Minnesota breweries cannot sell growlers to go on Sundays. Their Norwegian heritage lives on. Just let’s hope the natives are not all like in Fargo.


Restricted sales of alcohol on Sundays is pretty common in the US. It depends on the state. In some states you even have to go to a state run store to buy your wine and booze. Sound familiar?
If I don’t have to shovel snow to get to those breweries, I’m there!
