Really fun atmosphere family friendly and lots of room. They have live music, video games, board games and much more. Great beer selection made in house as well as excellent root beer and floats made with either. Very reasonable in price and free parking. read more

Love my little Hopkins gem! Food: Well, drink. It's good. They do a great job of keeping things fresh and fun. A while back, they did a progressively spicier beer. Not something I loved, but it was still cool to see something unique. Service: I've always felt like it was friendly and fun. I went a while back with a kickball team and they were accommodating. They actually had Cards Against Humanity and had no complaints about us playing and lounging for a while. Atmosphere: Average? It's like most taprooms, but I don't hate it. read more

Checked this place out the other day with my husband and some friends. We all had beers we liked- but can you really go wrong when drinking beers? The service was great. Every employee walks around with an iPad and is essentially your server. A rogue concept in the world of breweries. Bonus number 2: the place is family friendly! While most breweries are, it's more difficult to bring babies and children to the NE breweries. Here is what I didn't like about the place: it's dark. Dark floors, dark table, dark walls. Also the floors were super dirty. They serve free popcorn (another bonus) but unfortunately that means white crumbs all over their dark floors. I am one who is very turned off at the sight of any uncleanliness. I will however say that the restrooms were clean and the table we were at was clean. Would I go back? Sure! But it wouldn't be a brewery I would suggest first. read more

De-Li-CIOUS folks. If you like sours. The here is great. Good, unfiltered, crisp summer breeze kind of Hefe. If you like ipa the milkshake ipa is yummy. This will be a regular on our rotation. Check out this menu, you will surely try a style that you like. I am not a fan flights but here, indulge and find what you like. The free popcorn refreshes the palette in between. LTD rocks!

As a seasoned MN Craft Beer drinker, my best advice to anyone who's venturing out to any new local brewery is to be sure to give them another shot even if at first you're not a fan. My first experience at LTD was just OK, so I wasn't sure I'd return...but I'm glad I did! LTD is now one of the closest breweries to our house, and they're constantly churning out good brews. Every week, they have Firkin Friday where they offer up some sort of small batch infusion, which is often quite tasty (but you have to get there early or else it often disappears). One of my favorite beers is the Sweet Dreams Pineapple Wheat, which is their pale wheat ale with pineapple. Island Boy and I tried it at the State Fair last year (where it won 2nd place for best craft beer at the fair), which is what originally brought us back into the taproom (we figured if they had one good beer, perhaps they had more). Just as with our first visit, we are always greeted immediately upon entering the taproom. We've found the patio to be a great place to hang out with our pooch, and the best part is, the staff will come by to take your order, so you don't ever have to go inside! So, whether you've never been to LTD, or if you have and you weren't in love at first pint, swing by sometime...they're sure to have something good on tap! read more

Love the vibe in this place. Caddyshack playing on the big screen, great tunes, popcorn-a-plenty, delicious soda for the young ones and of course a great line up of craft brew. Only one block off the bike trail and and also cool swag. Well played LTD, well played. Although Excelsior Brewery is my local, I will be more tempted to head East! read more

We went here on a Sunday after a local coffee and the vibes are so great. Such a great local brewery with great beers! I got the orange peel and blueberry muffin top, so delicious and summery. They really hit the spot on the hot summer day. Another great perk is that they have a ton of board games/cards you can play, which personally increases the fun of the place! Dogs welcome too! Fun fun place. Will come back maybe via bike next time! read more

Ok the beer is excellent but don't miss the root beer! Fun place great staff. Sit on the patio with a great beer and watch the world go by and just chill. read more

Location and atmosphere are excellent. The beer is inferior to nearby Steel Toe. They do have a Chocolate Milk Stout Ice Cream Float, Root Beer, and other novel items that might make it a fun destination when your non-beer geek friends are in toe. The best two things about about the craft beer scene in Minnesota is that it is both collaborative and competitive. Collaborative . It isn't unusual to see brewers from other breweries having a beer and talking shop at any taproom in the state. That is great. They all want to get better and don't see other craft brewers as a challenge. The challenge is the giant breweries running constant commercials institutionalizing the dogma that Miller/Bud/Coors/etc is actually beer. Competitive in this context is the choice we beer drinkers now have here in MN. There a lots of competing choices. If your beer isn't 'very good' to 'excellent' then you put it down and choose another. That brewers are all working constantly to improve the beer scene here only means that beer that is now just 'good' will soon be 'very good'. read more

This a fantastic cozy little tap room, with a very friendly staff. Today I tried the 5 alarm, it tastes like you are drinking spicy nachos. We got a little tour the first time we were here and talked to one of the owners. If you're hungry, feel free and bring something to eat or play a board game. read more

LTD Brewing Co - 5 alarm - Breweries Near Me - Hopkins, Minnesota

My boyfriend and I go here for BING-Q (their version of BINGO) on Tuesdays sometimes. It's free to play and there are great prizes (free beer, free pint glasses, free merch, gift cards, etc). The staff are friendly. You can bring in outside food, but there is not a kitchen/ food on site. The beer is OK. They make different beer each week and there's lots of variety. Cute location, good outside seating. read more

The beer was great! I had two of their IPAs and enjoyed them thoroughly. Nice little patio is covid friendly. Nestled in the quaint Hopkins downtown. read more

The water here sucks. I heard the beers are good though. Where that seltzer water though for those Sober Sallies? read more

LTD Brewing is a laid-back, high quality, craft tap room. Plenty of tables and couches. Enjoy a board game or xBox game. Beers include sours, saison, IPA's Brown Ales and Stouts. Pints and 10 oz glasses. Plenty of good food places nearby will deliver. Nachos is my favorite. Located in sunny Hopkins. read more

LTD Brewing Co - Flight: - Orange Peel Patio Crusher - Amber's Dream - Watermelon Sour - Pomegranate Sour - Blood Orange IPA - Breweries Near Me - Hopkins, Minnesota

LTD is a staple of Hopkins for fellow beer-drinkers and summer patio lovers. The patio is packed in the warmer months; a good sign of great brews. I love the sour beers that LTD puts out each year, called Emily's Dream followed by a number. Can't recommend this enough! This year I've had the pleasure of getting growlers of both Emily's Dream #16 (Mango Passionfruit) and #17 (Berry Lemon). Additionally, I love getting growlers of their root beer. You can get a growler (64oz.) for around $20 (including the deposit on the container). Root beer growlers (32 oz.) are $6.50, including the $3 bottle deposit. The location has a really great vibe. The interior is cozy, with couches, board games, and two N64s. The menu is strictly on the chalkboards inside, behind the bar, along with WiFi information. The patio is really great and bustling in the summer. Hard to find a table for a group larger than 4, but pushing chairs and tables together isn't above the norm. Service here can be pretty mixed in terms of speed. Sometimes I'll have someone on top of getting us refills, but sometimes I'll have to go to the bar to get a drink (never a bad wait). I have yet to encounter someone without a pleasant demeanor or warm personality, despite service speeds. read more

First time here and I can't believe I waited so long to try it out (especially considering I live 13 blocks away). First beers are a success! I am a fan of sour beers and their Sweet Cherry Sour (Emily's Dream #28) is wonderful. First sip hits you right in the puckers, but is pretty smooth after that. I'm also not an IPA fan, but actually really enjoyed their NE IPA (Hazy Dream). The staff is super friendly and for a smaller place they have a good amount of seating. Plus, you can't beat free street parking when coming to a brewery you might not drive away from. read more

Blueberry Muffin Top Is Very Good! Snacks Are Cheap And Free Popcorn! Very Nice Brewery And There Glasses Are 2-$5

This is a fun little brew pub near downtown Minneapolis. They make all of their beer on site and offer fairly priced beer flights as well. There are some (but not too many) TVs located around the place. They have lots of board games and free popcorn. I also like how they separate checks for large groups which makes payment easier. read more

Great beer with some unique brews. Tons of seating and parking, a bookcase of board games, friendly table service, and everything was really well priced - even the branded merchandise. My favourite brew was the maple brown ale (very maple-y!). They even have an in-house root beer for those who don't drink but still want to hang out in this great spot. $12 (after tax) for 5 2oz. pours. The only negative thing was that there was a kid's birthday party happening. I assume it was one of the owners' or employee's friends because children shouldn't be in a brewery that doesn't serve food much less have a birthday party with multiple children present. It was after dinner time too. It set a really weird tone in the place. read more

LTD Brewing Co is such a mainstay of downtown Hopkins, and emblematic of the area culture. In warm weather, bikes from the trails are locked up outside, dogs mingle with people at the tables and benches, and young adults sit across from older couples over pints and paddle flights. LTD offers live music at the end of the week, a vast collection of old board games, free popcorn, and most importantly, excellent beer. LTD makes sours, stouts, ales, etc using flavors like watermelon, chai, coffee and your more garden-variety beer ingredients. It's a fun, upbeat and casual atmosphere that makes it the perfect spot to hang out, have a date, or catch up with an old friend. The brewery is less busy in the winter, partially because the inviting sidewalk tables are all gone, but on a Friday or Saturday night it's still packed, so finding seating can be a bit of a challenge. I wouldn't recommend coming with a large group. Also, since they don't serve food, you're welcome to bring your own- and Chipotle just happens to be right across the street, and a cupcake shop (Amy's) further down the block. Staff is super friendly and always willing to give you a taste of a brew or offer advice on what to try. Flights are a fun option, and great way to try everything they have to offer. Note; some beers are stronger than others, so check the chalkboard if that's a concern. All in all, it's a wonderful spot and I'll be coming here for a long time. read more

Food/Drink: Am I dreaming or am I living? Who knows, keep drinking the beer here and you'll figure it out. They have a small selection, but the choices and quality of the ones on the menu are awesome. My favorite was a Nitro Stout which I feel like should be served in a gallon sippee cup for my consumption. I stuck to that, but it was good enough to make sure I get back here to try some more. I've heard of beer floats, chocolate and vanilla options all sounding sweet. There's plenty of delivery food options and they seem pretty open to bringing in whatever you'd like. Ambiance: The brewery/bar is pretty small which is fine by me. A few tables, games and sofas setup on the inside. Outside there's a awesome little patio setup in the parking lot where you can absolutely pull up and drink a few (not in your car silly, get out of that first). Looking around, it's definitely a younger craft brewing crowd, but don't sweat it too much if you're older (old people need booze too). Service: Great. I ponied up to the bar an mentioned that I may (or may not have) been pulled over and got breathalyzed on the way over here and requested a recommendation to ensure I don't go to crazy. After tolerating me, recommended the perfect drink to sit outside and relax at. Started and ended a tab happily. Overall: Need beer? In the greater western burbs? Need to be one of the cool kids joining in the craft scene? This is your place. Out in the downtown and just need to hangout a little longer and it's great weather outside, this is your place. Really, after writing this up, I can' find a reason why you wouldn't come out here. Even worth it to make it a destination trip. read more

What a wonderful brewery, the place is great, service is fantastic. If you are a beer lover and you do not come here you missed out. It's small batch brewery. I go to a lot breweries this place is special. It came highly recommended and it's great. read more

I've lived right next door to this place for two years and it is awesome. ATM, Emily's Dream #32 is slappin' (as my son would say). It's a sour (guava pineapple), rich, smooth, with just the right amount of punch while being immensely refreshing. Perfect for a bright, sunny spring afternoon while you browse our local shops and stores. If you prefer coor's light, don't go there. Everything they make is handcrafted with love and attention. If you can't find something you like, that's your problem. Share a flight with your friends then buy a pint. The Orange Peel Patio Crusher is rocking and so is Amber's dream. Check out their triple IPAs when they are in season. Their Nightmares are also worth dreaming. Erm...drinking. Happy Cinco De Mayo, people. read more

Great selections of beer! Lively atmosphere, great popcorn, great staff. The street parking is decent, with two lots on either side of the road. In the summer, they have a great outdoor seating area on the sidewalk with many dogs. Always keep in mind that the menu is only posted in one spot, and they will not hand one out. read more

Oh hello, LTD, I like you very much. I often ride off suburb spots, because I unintentionally have become a snooty city woman. I have got to stop doing that because then you miss out on gems like this. But for real, I loved this place so much. First of all, it is so so cozy. Like couches and comfy chairs (along with the regular old tables too) and dim lighting. Not only is there an entire bookshelf of board games, but there was also a man lounging on the couch playing video games on their TV the whole time too. That's the life I tell you. Trust me though, it's cute in there. The bathrooms even have a little supply basket. No more putting dimes into a machine to get your lady products...they conveniently set out for you. It's the small things that count. On to the important stuff, the customer service. Our beer guy was the sweetest. Super personable and friendly and he just genuinely seemed like he wanted us to enjoy the beer. He was one of those people that seem to actually mean what they say rather than the monotonous "have a great day" kind of stuff. For example, when we were paying he said "Looking forward to seeing you guys again" and he seemed to mean it so sincerely that I was thought "this is going to be the beginning of a great friendship". Anyway, you guys know I am a sucker for good customer service. Now on to the actual important stuff. You know, the reason people go to breweries-the beer. I got a flight because I couldn't choose just one beer and I was so happy that I did because they were all so good! My flight started with a chamomile beer, that's right, chamomile...like in the tea. It was interesting and good. I probably couldn't have drank an entire 6-pack of it unless I wanted to take a nap immediately following but I enjoyed it. I also tried Emily's dream which is a sour beer and it was like juice. Sours are hit or miss for me, but I loved this one so much. I tried the Bigger Dreamer also which is a double IPA, but unlike other IPAs that i have had. It was really unique in that it was hoppy, but smooth. I don't even know exactly how to describe it besides that it didn't make my tongue click at the roof of my mouth like most IPA's do. It's also 10% alcohol so watch out! The Reindeer Games beer was basically like I was sitting down to my morning cup of Joe and I did not mind that at all. I had another IPA that I don't remember the name of, but I do remember I liked every single beer on my flight so I must have liked that one! I can't wait to go back to LTD, I think it might be up there on my favorite brewery lists! read more

This place is so cool. First of all, they have literally every board game in existence, so you'll never get bored. Second of all, GREAT beer variety! Third of all, the staff are so chill and fun. Also they recently did a promotion where they sold growlers of a specific beer and all proceeds went to an organization that's working to fight the ban on purchasing alcohol on Sundays in MN--ummm hello! Company with a cause--I love it. read more

Fabulous place. I'd recommend it to anyone. Great selection of beer. They typically have sports games on the projector screen. I often enjoy a few freaky IPAs and leave with an off sale bomber. This is the perfect spot to start your night if you're going out in Hopkins. read more

I travel extensively across the US, and like to frequent craft breweries. LTD has one of the most creative tap lists I've seen. I had the "Patio Slammer" American IPA, and the "Tropical Paradise" Milk Shake IPA with mango and guava.....I don't normally not a big fan of fruity IPA's, but this one was so good, I had two! They have a great outdoor area, and it was packed on a Wednesday night. Time well spent! read more

I've been wanting to visit this taproom for a long time. Finally, I got the chance. Memorial weekend and a Sunday. I don't know exactly why. But, I feel at home here. The smell of popcorn, the laid back atmosphere, watching the Twins, maybe a rare win this year, the nice beer choices ( Stargazer is a really good/ tasty IPA ), the downtown setting, all combine to make a neighborhood feel. Kudos to LTD. I'll be back. I hope you will visit too. read more

First time going on a hot summer day. Sat out on the patio and was very impressed with the service! Every staff member took time to ask us how we were doing and if we needed anything. Great tasting beer with a large menu! Reasonable prices and they have the ability to close up your tab with their portable tablets - no having to go inside which is always nice. Would definitely go back to try out more options! read more

Great spot for relaxing and have a great time with friends. We heard of this place thru word of mouth and it came highly recommended. Glad to say it lived up to expectations. It's a cozy brewery that features a Nintendo 64 in a big screen. Need I say more??? Unfortunately I did not get a chance to try it this time but I will sure be coming back and give it a shot. Service was great, very attentive and knowledgeable. They use iPads to take orders which I thought was pretty cool and appropriate for a brewery ran by young techy folks. Food was..... very limited as they only have popcorn (free which is great), but they let you bring in food from outside so they make up for it. Beer was good, I tried a flight and while I didnt love one in particular there's plenty to choose from for every beer knurd. Overall a great place, be sure to check it out. read more

Every time I come to the cities I have to make my way to LTD. They have an awesome selection of beer and is always a good time. I love the energy of the place.

They have some pretty cool lines of apparel as well. read more

This is my Sunday go - to ever since I discovered the loop hole of being able to purchase growlers on Sundays. The beer is phenomenal and there is always a good selection available that gets rotated regularly. It's hard to claim a favorite, as I haven't had a beer I didn't like. read more
