Minnesota Revive an Lost Brewery in Minnesota

[JasonRibbens]

Ran across this on Craigslist. I think there are some entrepreneurial brewers on here who could make this into something cool. The property even comes with caves!!! It's at least a great conversation piece for the forum. Any other lost breweries out there in your areas that you would like to revive?

Very cool, wonder what the price tag is on that. I could use a good lagering chamber

Sounds like a really interesting property. It would amazing to turn it back into a brewery, but a lack of funds prohibits me doing so. Hopefully some enterprising individuals will see the properties potential and return it to its former glory.

Haha, I've been there! The whole thing is a giant antiques/junk shop right now, including the caves.

It's in a gorgeous area, about a 30 minute drive from my hometown on the Mississippi river. Problem of course is that there are a ton of great breweries already in WI/MN (this is right on the border).

Cool place to visit though.

Right across the Mississippi River from me, location would be good as they are right, that intersection is always busy! Not much room for expansion though if you did get it going big

Trying to sell 35,000 sq/ft of buildings on 3 acres of land... on craigslist?

My thoughts exactly. Of course a realtor may have suggested a more realistic asking price that they didn't like.

I bet taxes are dirt cheap up there also. That's a whole lot of cheddar
