"I found Lakes & Legends Brewing Company to be a lively Loring Park taproom opened in 2015 by Ethan Applen and Derrick Taylor that hosted pinball tournaments, local makers markets, and live music. Over its eight-year run it expanded its roster of pilsners, honey ales, and IPAs and in 2022 debuted fruity Hiii THC seltzers. The brewery's announcement gave no specific reason for the closure but noted “[eight] years since we opened our doors,” celebrated hundreds of team members and tens of thousands of guests, and said that while a lifetime of memories was made, all adventures have endings as it plans to close by year’s end." - Justine Jones
