While it’s not true that the Minnesota State Fair started as a bet between two Scandinavians about who could deep fry the most unlikely thing, it’s plausible. It’s one of many reasons why there’s simply nothing quite like the Fair, and why we’re thrilled to be a part of it again.
You can get Surly all over the Fairgrounds in 2024, including four all-new beers crafted for some of our favorite spots. We even made the above map, because maps are cool.
- LuLu's - Hazy Days IPA and Outlook Good N/A Hoppy Pale. When the late August heat commingles with the steam of a million pronto pups getting dunked in hot oil, a certain haze settles over the Midway. Cool off at LuLu’s with a Hazy Days IPA, which is hazy, juicy, and the ideal pairing for their Deep Fried Ranch Dressing.
- Blue Barn - Furious
- The Hideaway - Attack of the Quack and Surly Lemonade. After last year’s triumphant Duck Duck Blue Duck, what can we possibly do to follow it up? Simple: Make it purple. The tropical punch-inspired Attack of the Quack is refreshing, fruity, and yes, you can keep the duck.
- The Coliseum—Surly Lemonade
- Ball Park CafĂ© - 4 Seam Screamer and Furious. Here’s the pitch: A traditional West Coast-Style IPA (clear as a bell and bursting with citrus/pine notes), an order of garlic fries, repeat as necessary.
- CafĂ© Caribe – Furious and Surly Lemonade
- Tejas Express - Tejas Anniversary Lager and Surly Lemonade. A crisp, classic lager to go with Tejas’s array of burritos, chilaquiles, and quesadillas.
- The Hangar - Furious
- Midway Mens Club - Furious
- Coasters - Furious
