Decided to stop here to grab a drink to celebrate my bday. Such an expected location. They do have a ton of signs to find the place. We were able to get last minute reservations on a Friday which was nice. It wasn't too busy at the time we went. Loved the vibes & the decor. We got 3 different drinks - Strawberry Dubai Chocolate, Koku & Secondhand Dandelions. I love that they come over and explain the drinks, it really elevates the experience. Surprisingly the Dubai Chocolate drink was my favorite. My mom ordered a few snacks & enjoyed them especially the Japanese snack mix. I'd definitely like to come back. read more

We went to the Christmas pop up here and had the best experience! Located in a shared office building it felt like a cool secret modern day speakeasy walking into this distillery. The Christmas lights, lounge seating and vibes were all perfection. The drinks had the most adorable presentation and tasted great! The service was attentive. We were even served hot towels! They have their own parking but we did have a reservation. Their Christmas pop up was super cool. We'd totally come back! read more

When you arrive at this distillery it may shock you. It is located in a shared building, but once you walk in the vibe completely changes. I had a chance to go to the limited, Taste of Japan menu and was enamored with the flavor of these cocktails. Each was unique and something that I would love to try again if they bring this menu back. They also had Wasabi Popcorn with the limited menu and I will order this any time I see it. A must! read more

This is our favorite cocktail room in the Cities! We've been a handful of times, and you just get so much that you aren't expecting from this spot. The weirdest location, the inventive menu, and an interior perfect for a casual drink or date night, you really can't do better! Plenty of parking available outside this building. Don't be alarmed, this tasting room is in the middle of what seems to be an office building. Just follow the signs and you will be transported to a one of a kind tasting room. I don't want to spoil anything because part of the experience is entering this spot and taking it all in...but just know that it's intentional and beautiful! The service is always top notch and they know how to check all the boxes. The drink menu is QUITE inventive and always changing. They aren't afraid to take risks and challenge your understanding of the art of the cocktail. My greatest recommendation is to pick a spirit you enjoy and let the team recommend the best! You won't be disappointed! Can't wait to continue to explore the magic that this place dreams up! read more

Skaalvenn Distillery - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Brooklyn Park, Minnesota

Drinks are great! They get better each time I've come. This was my third time. This place has that speakeasy element of mystique because it's located in an office building where everything is closed. Behind an office door is this dark, cozy bar. There are cool nooks inside. They distill their own liquor so the pot stills are a nice touch. They play good music too. Bar tenders are cool and easy to chat with. They do a great job making craft cocktails with super unique ingredients. Love this lil Japanese snack mix they put together too. They have a couple of other snacks to hold you down. They have a laser cutter so they do their own branding, like in coasters and stencils they use to make awesome designs in the drink, like the Skaal sour I had. The beet powder gave it a beautiful aesthetic but also boosts the flavor profile. I love those kinds of touches. read more

Obsessed with this place! They have very limited seating so make a reservation. It's fun to walk through the halls to the entrance, it feels like a speakeasy. They have excellent drinks and a fun atmosphere- it's really cool to see the stills plus they decorated for Halloween when we went. The bartenders are great and we loved our drinks. My favorite was the walken pig- which has smoked Hmong pork belly infused vodka, um what?! Just trust me. It's absolutely DEVINE! Just go here! read more

Don't let the industrial park location fool you--Skaalvenn Distillery & Cocktail Lounge in Brooklyn Park has got to be one of the Twin Cities' most unique and impressive bar experiences. It's a true, high-end speakeasy that transports you the moment you step inside. One moment you are in a boring office building then you transport to an atmosphere that is intimate, dark, and beautifully designed. I especially love the service and their dedication to presentation and mixing unique flavors. Important Tip: Because of the cozy size and high demand, reservations are strongly recommended, especially on weekends, to ensure you get a seat in this exclusive spot! Sometimes you can get lucky and get a walk-in but I strongly encourage reservations. One other thing, the music selection was great; went along with an already impressive vibe. read more

Very knowledgeable staff! They were super helpful with the menu that had a lot of uncommon ingredients for our area.

Absolutely will be going back. read more

Very cool place, it's tucked inside a warehouse and it almost feels like a speakeasy. It was fun walking through a very boring office building and then getting transported to a trendy dark distillery. Ambiance feels mellow and cool. Drinks were awesome and experimental! I had an ube milk cocktail that was delicious. Prices are $14-20 ish and on the bit high side but worth it as there's a lot of care that goes into the drinks. read more

I'm not sure how to describe this place. The ambience is unique for sure. The whole menu is unique. I will say it's not my cup of tea but that doesn't mean others won't like it. The food options were ummmm unique. We had a drink each and went on our way. Check the menu to see what they have. Service was good and friendly. If you like the menu, it's a great place to check out. read more

See my review from 2024. Nothing has changed. They still need to showcase their excellent aquavit more, the ambiance is still the bomb, and it's still an amazing pearl in the drab oyster of the building it's in. Just come here. Actually wait, don't, then it'll get crowded. Totally one star, stay away, um, you're sober now or something. read more

Great experience! They world us in to have a table for 2 last minute. The drinks are so unique but also tasty. One of the Christmas speciality drinks was not our style and they replaced it immediately. Great costumer service. It's a fun ambience and almost speakeasy vibe in a businesslike building. Make sure to have a reservation or call ahead! read more

This place is killer, every time I've visited. The environment if you're in before the music cranks fits that of the perfect date night, dim lit and intimate. After the music starts? Exactly where you want to be at night. They have all the right vibes going on. The bartenders and staff are killer. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and the service is quick. The drinks? They have all the staples, plus some really awesome rotating signatures. I love classics such as their old fashioned, and signatures such as their bam bam fruity pebbles inspired cocktail. Make sure to make a reservation as she gets packed. Get ready for the vibes, and try all the fun things! read more

If you love a fancy cocktail, this is the place for you. I got their version of A whiskey sour and it was easily one of the best I've ever had. The bartenders were fantastic and the place wasn't too crowded.

Another 5 star visit to my fave distillery ***** Nice to see some new cocktails listed Notorious RBC was interesting for me as I'm not a Bourbon drinker and I discovered if you let the ice cube melt just a little it tasted soo good and not so strong. Nice touch with the brownie bite in between sips And of course I still stand on the Espresso Martini is the best I've had yet in the cities- they make all the ingredients in house including their Khalua and the special touch must be their coconut fatwashed vodka! Sounds insane but it's epic!!! Some friends tried the spicy daiquiri which is made with their habanero rum - so that should give you a hint that it's spicy!! it had a really good flavor but too spicy for me to enjoy ,so make sure you check with the staff about all the ingredients in the cocktails before you order :) Ambiance is always on point ,great vibe moody lighting and old skool tunes The staff here are all friendly helpful and knowledgeable , I love coming here read more

This is the cocktail lounge the Twin Cities has been waiting for and it is found in an office building that feels like you're clocking your shift at Dunder Mifflin. You'll likely arrive after dark and assume your GPS has routed you to the wrong spot. But press on! You'll walk through a bunch of nondescript hallways like in my pics to ultimately arrive at the greatest cocktail lounge ever. You'll open the door and find friendly workers, fantastic ambiance and the best cocktail menu I've encountered. They're all made with spirits that they create on site and so you can tell they take pride in everything they do. Everything about the people and the place just feels thoughtful-- like no detail has been left to chance. The space feels a bit time warpy with a lot of retro hip hop playing and super cool nooks for small to medium sized parties. Was also told by a worker that the whole space can be rented out for big parties. As for the drinks themselves, you just have to experience. Really two of the best cocktails we've ever had. I did the In Fashioned and it was simply the most elevated old fashioned over ever tasted. Little details like the foam and burnt orange made it special. Finally, there is a way that a place like this could end up being pretentious because of the setup and elevated nature of the drinks. But, nothing could be further from the truth here. We interacted with five different workers and everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Would recommend getting a reservation to be on the safe side. We went late on a Friday and were ok but that isn't the norm we were told. We can't wait to go back! read more

I love going to a speakeasy bar, especially if you have to go through secret doors or have a password to enter. I had family in town and took them to check out the speakeasy at a business building. We parked in the lot, entered the building, walked down the hallways and then open the door and see a whole new world. We made reservations just in case they get a large walk in. Our server was very knowledgeable in the drinks they offered and gave us comparisons. They have a food menu, however we went there after we ate. Just small plates and appetizers. Definitely recommend this place for anyone in the twin cities. read more

A speakeasy vibe hidden in an office building! SO glad I finally checked it out! Unlike other distilleries, their drinks are TASTY AS HECK and not too spirit forward. I had 'Tyson's Apple Pie'. It was perfectly sweet! My partner had the 'Pandan Express'. He wasn't a huge fan - so I recommend ordering one of the drinks where you recognize (most) of the ingredients haha. Prices were high so this is definitely a treat! I'd recommend making a reservation as we snuck in and got the only walk in table available. It's on the cozier side! Picture-worthy decor and the staff was friendly and entertaining. The entrance can be confusing, so follow Google and the signs indoor! Stop by next time you're in the area! read more

They had me at hello. Come experience the speakeasy feel of a distillery with hand crafted drinks and fabulously friendly staff. No details missed from the branded ice cubes, custom artwork, eclectic lounge areas. If you like spice there have a very spicy rum that I found to be amazing. They do offer Osseo meat market hot dogs and other food items. Great date night or group of friends. read more

Love almost everything about this place! Super unique aesthetic and very cozy. Kinda weird that it's in a single level business building but I think it adds to the effect when you walk into the place and it's a completely different world! Each of their drinks are super intriguing and you can tell a ton of thought was put into each one as they are all amazing. It's ran by a few friends and they're all really friendly and hospitable! You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and the business and pour their heart into it. Also you would never expect it but their hummus and warm pita bread is incredible!! Must order it every time I go. The only thing stopping me from going back often though is the steep price. After 2 cocktails, you're at $32, plus tip and tax, you're looking at $40. They do have slightly cheaper options but it all adds up very quickly. read more

Elevated decor with a local bar feel. Not just somewhere to drink, but an experience. The kind of place that remembers your usual drink and your usual is probably DELICIOUS!! LOCATION: In an unassuming industrial building, down the hall, then a left and a right and another left. Just follow the signs. They're fun and lead you down a community college feeling pathway to their front door which opens into a dark intimately lit room with an L shaped bar, a few tables and a view of the distillery equipment which just has such a nice vibe in the background. DECOR: Everything above the lights is black. Black walls with dark or illuminated orange accents. Luxurious spot lighting and Japanese inspired artwork behind the bar. Did I mention the fog? There's something about fog in a place that just sets the mood to fun and chill. PRICE: A bit on the pricier side, but these are much classier cocktails. Average about $15 per handcrafted cocktail. $12-$36 for a take home bottle depending on size and your of alcohol. (Vodka, bourbon, rum) Assorted Asian nuts & pretzels- $4 House Tom Yum seasoned pitted olives- $7 Housemade hummus and warm pita bread- $9 DRINKS: Drinks? No. Liquid orgasms made to please. Yeah. That's what I'll call them. Lomps. Lol. Fjord Horse was a masterpiece made with aquavit, house ginger beer, ginger, lime, galangal, lingonberry & hibiscus ice. Holy moly. My partner had 2 for her 40th birthday and could not have been more pleased! The Mike Tyson is good as well, but we asked for a non alcoholic version and was given an orange creamcicle whipped to perfection with nitrogen and almond whipped cream! It literally melted in my mouth like cotton candy ice cream in mid July! FOOD: Those olives plus the pita bread were plenty for 2 people and mighty delicious. I like olives, but have never been able to eat them served alone. Well, not until now. Don't sleep on the pita bread either. Everyone loved the hummus, but I don't like hummus. It's a texture thing for me. STAFF: Staff?! Please! Tyson and Nelson welcomed us in like family! They were social and kind and knew their ish about the drinks they made. Tyson brews the goods and Nelson crafts the magic. EXPERIENCE: I came here with my partner and her best friend for my partner's 40th bday. We walked along the path marked by cheeky signs with sayings like, "you're almost there" and "just a bit further." Once we arrived at the door, we rang the doorbell, and waited a few seconds before we were let in. And when I walked through that door, my mouth dropped. It was one of the most exciting transitions as we went from a faceless hallway to an upscale club with an exclusive underground vibe. We had reservations and were seated at the bar which we had to ourselves for most of the time. We spent our time socializing back and forth. Watching drinks created in front of us with nitrogen and fog flowing all around us. It was the most fun I have had sitting at a bar that wasn't celebrating someone's 21st birthday. Drinks were flowing and lips were flapping. It was an all-around good time. read more

Upon entering the building you might feel like you are in the wrong spot but just follow the signs! The distillery is set within an office building so it gives it a kind of speakeasy feel as you are weaving down hallways to find the entrance. Upon entering you are transported to a completely different experience! The space has a dark and smoky feel with various seating areas for groups. We were extremely lucky to be seated as we tried to go here on a whim and they are reservation based. *Strong recommendation to make a reservation!* Especially if you are a group of 3 or more. Looking around the space, there were lots of little niches for those with reservations and each table gave a sense of seclusion with the dark lights and foggy air. We sat at the bar which was great as we had basically a free show in watching the specialty drink preparations. The team ran the operation well communicating with each other and handling drink orders seamlessly. The bartenders all took pride in their craft and were happy to talk with patrons in all things from general small talk to making recommendations to educating us on the cocktails and the spirits. All of their drinks are made with their house made spirits and they have a rotating menu of specialty cocktails. I chose the Fjord House, which was refreshing as it featured ginger, lingonberry and hibiscus with aquavit as the liquor. We also tried a spirit flight of rum, bourbon and habenero rum. Holy hell! The habanero rum is hot. Like so hot we each only had a sip and the burn lingered a long time and made my lips numb. We couldn't finish the pour and it was enough to scare me away from trying any drink with it in the future! The bourbon and the regular rum were good though! This is a gem in the northwest suburbs. Definitely making it into my list of top spots to try and looking forward to visiting again soon with friends! read more

Hello perfection as a distillery. Went there for their Tiki Thursday. Imaginative, thoughtful, and delicious cocktails.

I am a huge fan of distilleries, and Skaalvenn is one of the best ones I've been to. The hospitality here is amazing and unlike any other distillery I've visited. Upon being seated, you're provided with warm hand towels and water. While we were waiting for our table to become available, we were provided with tasters of one of their drinks. The hosts are all attentive and knowledgeable and will take good care of you during your visit. The interior is intimate, artistic, and spacious. No matter where you're sitting, even if the whole place is full, you're not going to feel crowded by other guests. The drinks here are amazing. I've only been here twice, but both times the drink selection has been phenomenal. Skaalvenn offers an excellent variety featuring their spirits. Even though the distillery has Japanese influence, there's also an awesome 90s vibe that makes for a unique and eclectic experience. The music is packed with 90's hits and the checks come in jewel cases from iconic 90's albums! Overall, Skaalvenn has been a great place to go for drinks and is definitely going to be a place I go often. Thanks for such a great experience! read more

Skaalvenn Distillery - Pineapple upside down cake - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Brooklyn Park, Minnesota

Imagine pulling up to a standard office building to go to a distillery. Tucked away in an office building in Brooklyn Park, Skaalvenn transports you to another world as soon as you step inside the doors. The vibe is on point from the minute you see the space. Cool and chill is how I'd describe it, similar to a hidden speakeasy. For the night we were there, all kinds of hip hop being played inside but you wouldn't know outside, you'll only hear it as soon as you walk through the door. We had a private little space with a study feel. It had one of those super old TVs that has a dial that played old school Simpsons on tape. What was really neat was if you want a quieter space to be able to hear your friends, ask for this spot, the way they have the acoustics and sound wired, the music is just a nice background for you to still be able to enjoy a conversation without shouting. Now, let's get to the drinks. Craft cocktails is their specialty and you experience the amount of detail they have taken with each creation. You can't go wrong with any of the specialty cocktails, which are changed up every so often to give you the element of surprise with the menu each time. The presentation is such a nice treat to go along with tasty cocktails. Some so pretty that I don't want to ruin it by taking a sip! I really enjoy listening to the bartender coming each time with my drink to serve and explain each one and you can tell how much care goes into their craft. It's hard to choose just one, but I think one of my faves of the night was the Neoplitan Dynamite. The thought behind the different flavors and densities to make it separated is fascinating to me. It was fun to try each layer and then mix it all together for a whole new drink. That habanero infused rum has a surprise kick, so be prepared but once you mix it all together the fruitiness of the one layer and coconut foam layer is just the right amount to counterbalance the sourness and spice. Thank you so much to Tyson and Mary, the owners, I'm so excited to have a spot that has such a different and new experience here in MN. read more

A true hidden gem. This is part of an office building and wasn't expecting a lot. The minute I opened the door to enter pure shock. Reminded me of little hats in NYC. Service was PHENOMENAL. They truly work as a team and take the time to explain the drinks and details. Drinks may be a bit pricey compared to other distilleries but it is worth it. Fjord house was nice twist to my fave Moscone's mule very refreshing. The ice is even made with a tea and changes taste while it melts. My partner got a pepper le pew and gave it a 3 for spicy which had a great heat to it. We have decided this will be our go to place for when friends come in town and want to try something new! read more

Next level cocktails. The attention to detail is insane. The bizarre transition of arriving at a random parking lot in the middle of nowhere and walking through an empty office building to enter a super dimly lit and moody atmosphere is definitely an integral part of the experience. Cocktails: You can't go wrong with any of them - all of the drinks I tasted were unique and super delicious. I tend to gravitate toward fruity drinks, so I ordered the brother piño (a take on the pina colada), which came in a cool pineapple cup. The Fjord horse is one of their more popular drinks - also fruity and pretty gingery. The pepper le pew was spicy in a good way, and the hot toddy was decadent and rich. Would come back in a heartbeat! The people there are also super friendly and nice. read more

Looking for original, fun, fresh cocktails featuring exceptional house distilled spirits (without having to head into the city)?! Skaalvenn Distiller, located in Brooklyn Park, is the spot to be. The cocktail lounge feels almost like a speakeasy. The space is quietly located in an otherwise industrial building. The space is low lit with subtle yet warming light. The setting is intimate with small pockets of seating. Each with the own individual feels of the space. All within view of the gorgeous bar. The drinks are AMAZING and it all starts with the spirits. Skaalvenn has offers vodka, rum, aquavit, and bourbon. Which, outside of the cocktail room, can be found at most local liquor stores and bars. I recommend the "In Fashion" made with bourbon, yuzu, and ginger; as well as the "Swedezerac" made with aquavit, anise, ginger, and apple. Skaalvenn Distillery's cocktail lounge is a top pick for me and I love the big city feels. read more

For starters, this distillery and bar is hidden in an office park. You might well miss its signs! It isn't obvious at all from the outside, but inside it's got a real speakeasy vibe and some really great staff. Those alone make this a 4-star, with the extra star coming from some excellent drinks.

Wow. The only bad thing about Skaalvenn is that it took us so long to discover it! All of the staff were amazing and really enjoyed to time the owner Tyson spent with us sharing a bunch of great deets about the distillery and their amazing specialty cocktails. You're going to think you're in the wrong place but this distillery and cocktail lounge are located in a random business strip mall in BP. But once you open the door, you'll be blown away by the ambiance. Very cool decor and the guy playing piano was a very chic touch as well. Especially as he was bouncing around between music like Backstreet Boys, Beethoven's Für Elisė and Elton John We just had one app tonight but the hummus was delicious and we can't wait to go back to try additional specialty cocktails. The name is Norwegian for cheers and the have bourbon. No surprise it was my jam!! read more

Let's talk cocktails for a moment. Actually nah, let's talk next level, work of art cocktails for a moment. You can't really call it a speakeasy; there are signs directing you in, although the interior definitely has speakeasy vibes with a Japanese motif. Being nestled inside an unassuming, ground level Brooklyn Park office space you definitely feel the shock to your system going from one aesthetic texture to the other -- so we'll call it a better known hidden gem. It's a mixology experience like no other. The folks behind the bar take every special care to nuance each concoction being served. Owner Tyson is usually on hand to chat about his vision for the place and how his worldly team is so good at what they do; short version - their talents don't go unnoticed. Everything sent out is a masterpiece and it's ok if you need to gaze longingly at it for a bit before diving in I know I sure did. What we ordered: Almond Palmer ~ vodka, black tea, preserved lemon, almond cream. Napoleon Dynamite ~ Skaalvenn's habanero rum, pineapple, lime, yuzu, dragonfruit, coconut, vanilla. Milk Tyson ~ vodka, orange, lemon, vanilla, carbonation **clarified w/ milk** Easy Rider ~ watercress vodka, botanicals, peach shrub. **lovely house pickled skewer to accompany** No shortage of things to be Livin' for in this immersive cocktail experience! Go hit it soon! read more

WOW! That is all I can say. This hidden gem is located in a row of businesses / warehouses. When I arrived, I was worried I had pulled into the wrong place even though there are signs everywhere stating I was at the correct location. When you walk in, its like going into an old office building. As soon as the doors opened to Skaalvenn, my jaw dropped! What a beautiful distillery, and A+++++++++++++ customer service! It smelled so nice inside. We made reservations, the website encouraged it especially for the weekend. I arrived about an hour early and the owner was so sweet and ready to take us to our cute cozy table. She gave us a little info on how her and her husband travelled to Japan and fell in love. She went over all their drinks and what they distilled there. I ordered the Fjord Horse, which is their take on a moscow mule. OMG, DELICIOUS! The taste, the presentations, everything was amazing! I also tried the Rhu-Barb Benson, their take on an Old Fashion. OMG, the BEST I have ever had. I am not sure anything else will compare. The staff was sooooo sweet and nice. When I say amazing customer service, this place has it down and I highly doubt other places would compare. Highly, highly recommending coming here. You will NOT be disappointed. Thank me later :) read more
