"Anchoring the Lincoln Park neighborhood, this family‑owned brewery uses lake water to craft award‑winning beers and hemp beverages and doubles as a community hangout with live music, outdoor seating, local food trucks, fire pits, and a pet‑friendly patio—proof of Duluth’s thriving craft beer scene." - Jacqueline Kehoe Jacqueline Kehoe Jacqueline Kehoe is an award-winning writer, editor, and photographer.

"Located at 1812 W Michigan Street in Duluth’s Lincoln Park neighborhood, Bent Paddle Brewing Company — already a giant of the Duluth craft beer scene — has moved into a much larger taproom that mirrors how massive the almost five-year-old brewery has become. The new space offers four times the square footage, a private event room with a 70-person capacity, a bigger store, a stage, and a 7bbl pilot brewing system for experimental and smaller-batch beers." - Eater Staff
"Bent Paddle has a broad selection of both craft beers and THC drinks, games like foosball and darts, and a large patio and green space for summer evenings. Keep an eye on the events calendar, which features live music, rotating food trucks, and wood-fired pizza nights on Fridays." - Justine Jones
"I’ve watched Bent Paddle grow into a popular taste of the crisp north, known for approachable brews and a deep connection to the city; last year the taproom expanded into a stunner of a space that hosts food pop-ups, contains a small merchandise shop, offers plenty of entertainment, and has cozy seating that makes it a favorite night-out spot — and it’s handy that local sandwiches and barbecue can be delivered right to the taproom." - Joy Summers
"According to the Minnesota Department of Revenue, Indeed and Bent Paddle will soon have to figure out how to navigate this revenue shift." - Matt Gundrum
