It was a nice large location and parking was easy. The service was friendly as well. Unfortunately, they didn't have a lot of alternative drink options such as selzer or thc, which was tricky for a group with varying tastes. I'd say prices were a little higher than comparable breweries. Overall , I'd likely find a different brewery in the future. read more

Steel Toe will always be one our favorite breweries in Minnesota! The recent 50 degree weather prompted people to get out and enjoy the patio :) Size 7 is forever and always a top tier beer. Also really love the raspberry sour. If you haven't been here before, make sure to stop by if you're in the area! read more

Steel Toe Brewing - Breweries Near Me - St Louis Park, Minnesota

It had been too long since the last time I visited Steel Toe Brewing. For reference, I was enjoying a fresh Hefeweizen in the sun last time I was in the taproom. This time I was looking for something a little maltier to keep me warm with the temperatures we are facing in Minnesota. The two I chose were of course top notch - nothing less from a brewery like Steel Toe. Wee Heavy: It was a Wee Heavy - as the name suggests. Beautifully caramelly and sweet with a very mild hop bitterness. UnLunker: An English Barleywine that they use as the base of Lunker, their Barrel Aged version of this beer. The base beer is extremely complex with layers of butterscotch, caramel, molasses, and figs. ____ read more

When in town visiting relatives we popped in here on a Saturday afternoon for a quick beer. Most of the beer choices were not my thing - too many IPAs. There was just one lager-like on the current menu which is what I had. My brother in law had one of the IPAs and my wife a kombucha which they both liked. Looks like the only food was a food truck in the parking lot. The space was just OK. They had a big outdoor space but I was too windy and cool to take advantage of its Overall an OK place but we have been to better in town when visiting. read more

Steel Toe is just south of Hwy 7 off of Belt Line Blvd. as is typical for breweries these days, it's a fairly nondescript setting. Sitting in the small bar feels like one is drinking after a shift making beer. Which is to say it's purposely nothing fancy. Half a dozen tables, a dozen bar stools and very good beer - that's about it. More tables and a rotating variety of food trucks in the parking lot. While I did not sample Sweet Lou's Meats, I did enjoy a Sissel, which is a raspberry sour ale served at 5.5% ABV. Tart and tasty. My second was a Lunker, a barleywine aged in rye casks. Kicked my ass a bit at 13.75%, which probably explains why ST pours about 6 oz for $10. Worth it. If I had a campfire to enjoy, the Lunker would be a perfect companion on a chilly evening. All-in, ST is worth a visit. read more

Steel Toe Brewing - Sissel - a tasty sour treat - Breweries Near Me - St Louis Park, Minnesota

Stopped by here with a friend for a couple drinks. Hadn't been here yet. Located in the industrial area of SLP, there was parking in the lot and it was already pretty busy at 5 PM on a Friday. We sat at the bar. Its a clean and lively place with a jovial atmosphere. The staff was super friendly and helpful in recommending beers based on your tastes and preferences. You could tell they get a bunch of regulars and they had a really good amount of people that stopped by to pick up and restock. Started off with the Czech Pils. Had their sour (Sissel) next. Wanted to try their EBS (Extra Bitter Special). It was yummy so got that to end our evening at Steel Tow Brewing. All the beers were great. Very tasty. The ESB was so good that I had to get some to go for home. Like other breweries in town, there isn't a kitchen and you can't really get any food other than some bar snacks. They did have a food truck outside that you could pick up stuff from and bring it in if you so desire. We had a fun time with the delicious beers and will be back to try some of the others read more

One of my favorite breweries in town i love almost every beer rhey make especially the higher abv ones.

We loved their logo. We stopped by on Sunday afternoon and there were tons of people. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. We had no trouble getting a beer or finding a place to sit. We didn't love the beer. My sour was really sour so if that's what you like perfect. My husband is a big IPA drinker but it wasn't his favorite. We really liked the atmosphere and the people were really nice. read more

This place was great! The people working there were all super nice. I had a couple beers and they were delicious. It has a nice combination of open, spacious seating inside and a lovely outdoor patio. There was a fantastic Momo food truck outside that I was told is often there. I brought home some crowlers and both were excellent too. One of the better breweries I've visited in the Plymouth area. read more

Went on a rainy Tuesday night. The parlor food truck was there which was a huge bonus. It was busy for a week night, but maybe there was trivia or something? Sat outside on the covered patio and had a great time! Love the location as it's in St Louis Park! So convenient! read more

Inviting atmosphere and the drinks are pretty good. Will be returning to see if it's a 5 star now

Didn't even know this was a brewery until going to an event in the area. We only had 1 beer due to them not having food and us being hungry. Bartender was very nice and told us about all the beers. Parking lot is big and it looks like they have a nice patio in the summer. Far drive from my house and I wish they had better food options. Good brewery. read more

Always a great stop for a cold beer, especially on these hot summer days. At least 21 but never too old! read more

Steel Toe Brewing - No matter how old you are... - Breweries Near Me - St Louis Park, Minnesota

Love this little brewery. Beers are good. What else do you need. Also enjoyed rotating food trucks. Only gripe would be limited growler selection and that's me being picky read more

There are a TON of breweries out there. Living in St. Louis Park for a number of years, this became a staple for me on Thursday/Friday Happy Hour. Even with the amount of brewery/beer options - I would call Steel Toes Size 7 IPA my favorite. I'm so glad that they sell it in liquor stores. The brewery is pretty nice too despite being tucked fairly out of site in an industrial park area. It's worth hunting for - especially if you line it up with a good food truck night! (I think they have a different truck pretty much every night) read more

Steel Toe has been around for a while for a simple reason. Good beer. Nothing too crazy. A smattering of styles, mostly well done. (I am not crazy about their version of a sour, but that is my only complaint. Their Hefeweizen is perfect in a hot summer evening. I also appreciate the large patio they have built with many umbrellas and overhangs so you can enjoy the outdoors without burning. Great place for a beer. read more

I visited Steel Toe with my aunt for drinks and ended up ordering the Sissel, a raspberry sour ale. I'm not a fan of beer so I was nervous to try anything but a raspberry drink sounded good. And wow, yeah it was good. Like I said, I'm not a fan of beer but this sour ale was really good and refreshing. Their outdoor area was perfect for sitting at in the summer and there was even a food truck the evening I was there. I'll definitely be visiting again. read more

Steel Toe Brewing - Sissel - Breweries Near Me - St Louis Park, Minnesota

This is a very cool brewery to check out. We stopped in here for a beer and tried their flagship which was Size 7, an IPA. It was a good tasting beer, however I wish they also offered more of a hazy IPA as well. I also tried some samples of the 2 sour, the Sissel and Autumn Rays. I liked the Autumn Rays (Mango Passion Fruit) flavor much more than the Sissel (Raspberry). There was a lot of parking for the venue size. The venue looks small when you first walk in as you see a bar to the right that you order and some bar spots and tables to the left. We found another large room in the back that gave us a lot of room. We came during the winter and this would be a great place in the summer with all the garage doors open. read more

I had never heard of Steel Toe until some friends invited me and I will definitely be returning. There's plenty of space inside to just enjoy a beer or even play a board or card games with friends. The beer was good and the prices were great compared to some other breweries in the cities. read more

Beer: 4/5. Service: 4/5. Carbide; Size 7; Provider. Food by Brick Oven Bus. Happy to have this in the neighborhood!

Favorite beer in the cities is here at steel toe brewing. They have a strong menu of several IPAs, and my personal favorite is their double IPA sticker fight. It's citrusy and not too bitter. A truly delicious beer. Many other great options, with a great selection of rotating seasonal beers. I wish they had some of them all year round they are so good. They have a nice patio in the summer and they've recently remodeled some of their indoor spaces to make it bigger and nicer. Great staff too, always friendly and welcoming! read more

Steel Toe Brewing - Beer flights and food truck eats!! - Breweries Near Me - St Louis Park, Minnesota

Not exactly in a prime location but definitely worth seeking out. They are in an industrial park just off Belt Line Blvd. in St. Louis Park. The Cedar Lake bike trail goes right by it, very convenient! They are definitely bike friendly with huge racks right in front. The staff is great and will give you advice and samples, much appreciated. We tried their flagship size 7 IPA and special IPA Hoptready. Both really good! They offer a wide selection of other beers so not everything is hoppy. There are three main areas - bar area with high tops, main taproom with tables and a outside patio with a roof. The patio is pretty rustic with wood barrel and some other tables. The patio is the only place dogs are allowed, not in the main taproom area. The have a complete food truck schedule with a different truck there almost every day of the week. Definitely recommend a visit and get some ideas on what to try from the great staff. read more

Tucked behind some warehouses, Steel Toe is in an unassuming place but has plenty of indoor and outdoor patio seating (covered and uncovered) to hang out in. The staff are super friendly, and there's a good selection of beers, and the only sour, the Sissel ( a raspberry flavored sour) was pretty good. There's also a calendar of food trucks on their website, and I also love it because it's never too busy for us to find a seat (but we also have never gone on a trivia night). The patio is also dog-friendly! read more

Multiple choices for beer, especially IPAs. Great front bar, but it is so small that you'll most likely be sitting in the back. The back room is not as warm and inviting as the front, but it does have easier access to the food trucks. read more

Great space and very friendly staff! I often struggle to pick a beer to order at a new brewery, and the bartender gave me some good suggestions. Steel Toe often has food trucks outside, and we stopped by on a night Jamo's New Zealand pies was out front. SO DELICIOUS. A perfect pairing with our beers! read more

If you haven't noticed, my brewery reviews always discuss how kid friendly the place is. Gasp, yes I take my kids to breweries...don't worry they are always gone by 5pm as the not ruin the fun vibe. Now onto the review: Great beer IPAs all the way, size 7 is great!! Relaxed environment for kids to come with Friendly service Nice outside space (please note though this outside space bakes in the summer) if you like hot weather and a cold beer this space is wonderful read more

It's been the perfect kind of secret neighborhood jaunt. A little worried what the new apartments/condos will do to the vibe. Great spot for dogs and kids too because there's good outdoor and indoor space. read more

Had a great time at Steel Toe! The beer was great and there was a lot of seating options. They have a good list of beer - the pilsner was great. I recommend stopping by! Looks like they have a party room too. read more

Love this local microbrewery at the intersection of highway 7 and 100. Their Size 7 IPA and the Provider Golden Ale are probably their oldest and most popular. Staff are knowledgeable and chill. A small "free" sample usually isn't enough to get a good feel for beers in general IMO so if you're uncertain, ask for a half pour. Their Douglas Cascadian Dark Ale and Dissent Dark Ales are my favorites here. I do like their Dunkel Lager and the Sticker Fight DIPA. The Provider is amazing on a hot day. There's no bad choices here. A local SLP/Hopkins crowd for the most part. The bar area is fairly busy most times so you might have to go to the main hall area. There's an additional covered outdoor patio. If you're bringing your dog, that's the only area you can have them. read more

Dark and clandestine How a brewery should be Can't wait to come back This place was pretty, pretty cool. It was kind of like am I at an art gallery opening or a brewery? Hipster element was low, yuppy element was high. Change of pace from the usual, anyways. Little tricky to find being from the east Metro and not going to the west Metro very often. As is typical, the brewery is in an industrial area which is off the beaten path. Had to stop and look at the directions on my cell phone a couple times - no GPS for the Hammer. Felt like I was in a Brett Easton Ellis novel. Trendy was my impression and packed. Guess they have expanded greatly since first opening, but still feels kind of on the small side - maybe that is due in large part to what seemed to be the overwhelming demand. The parking lot was jammed at 8PM on a Friday, and it was close to butt to nuts inside. Made a quick friend who was previously a stranger right upon walking in who bought me a beer. Can't go less than four when that happens. It would be a four anyways, I think. Only had two beers - the Dissent and the Barrel Aged Dissent. Treat yourself and go with the Barrel Aged - delicious. So much tastier than the brewery that I was at previously. Looking forward to coming back at an off hour and sampling some of their other stuff. read more

They've a uniquely good selection of high ABV beers. I'm a fan of their barleywines. Solid IPAs too. They've converted a good part of their parking lot into an outdoor drinking space, so there should be plenty of room this summer for outdoor beers. read more

Steel Toe Brewing - Boonay Fancy Pale Ale - Breweries Near Me - St Louis Park, Minnesota

I've enjoyed Steel Toe ales since I found Size7 and Dissent in the cooler at Ace Spirits in Hopkins a goodly number of years ago. I was pleased when they opened up an onsite brewpub. I stop in most anytime I'm in the area. When they're open of course. (Is there some law that says a brewpub can't open 'til 3 pm on weekdays?) They have many of their fresh ales on tap, in bombers, or growlers. Nice patio outside, often a food truck is in attendance as well. This is not a sports bar -- instead it is a place for sociability. The only noise is that of people talking with one another. read more

Checked this place out a few weeks ago on a rainy Saturday morning. We arrived right when they opened at noon. The husband thought it was a tad odd that we were drinking at noon but, hey, it's 5:00 somewhere, right? Well, if you think it is odd to show up thirsty to a brewery at noon, fear not. That place was pretty darn full by 12:30. Great minds think alike. They have a covered patio outside but it was raining so we will have to check that out next time. The inside is pretty bare bones but still a great place to chill and pass the time. I had the Sissel and really enjoyed it. The husband had another one (I fail to remember the name) and really enjoyed his as well. He also grabbed a growler to go and he is picky guy so that says a lot. I hear they have food trucks at certain times. It is a very simple (in a good way) place to grab a new beer and relax. I encourage you to check them out! read more

This non-descript location in an industrial park in St Louis Park (behind the post office) has a bar for tastings and growler sales. You can also buy a flight to try them all. They recently remodeled and it has a nice finish to it vs other microbrews where you feel like you're standing in the fermentation tank. The IPA is one of the best I've had, so I like to get a growler every time I go camping or have folks over. The stouts are also great if you like that style of beer. read more

I have been to Steel Toe probably about as much as any craft brewer in Minneapolis / St. Paul. It might have something to do with the fact that they are located super close to a Trader Joe's, but their tasty beer has a great deal to do with it too. Their Size 7 IPA is a crowd favorite and I whole heatedly agree, but if you have an opportunity; I recommend seeing what else is available as well. Crowlers and 750ml bottles are available to-go, so if you show up with a couple of their large bottles to your social distanced beer samplings; you will be certain to get the nod of approval among your family and friends. read more

I recently was planning to cohost an engagement party with about 50 people and Steel Toe came up as a potential option. Upon reaching out to Steel Toe, they were more than accommodating and said we could reserve about 1/2 of the back room on a Saturday afternoon from 4-7pm. When we arrived a little before 4pm, they had reserved signs on the tables and we quickly set everything up. We brought in a few decorations, and it was so nice to be able to bring in some snacks and desserts for the group. The staff couldn't have been nicer and more accommodating! They continuously came by to pick up any empty glasses and keep the area clean. As for the beer, my favorite was the Provider Golden Ale. Many of the guests had not been to Steel Toe before, and everyone couldn't top talking about how good the beer was! I heard a lot of compliments on the Size 7, Dissent, and Chux. There is plenty of parking and a nice patio (which usually has a food truck). My only complaint is that there isn't self serve water - you have to go to the bar to get it. read more

Whoops! We came here on a Tuesday evening! Trivia mania this evening! The place was packed (standing room only)! Our bar keep was so busy pouring taps that we didn't want to bother her with trying sample or discussing taps, so we tried the ale. Since we were two doors down from the REM5 VR Lab (our destination), we didn't stay for another brew. We will have to try Steel Toe some other evening (not a Tuesday) read more
