Modist Brewing Co.

Me and my best friend stopped by about an hour and a half before they closed and they were basically empty apart from like 3 women at the bar that moved to the patio and two people that stopped in to pick up cans to go. They don’t serve food here but their selection of beers and THC drinks makes up for it completely. The space is giant and I was so happy to see they have so many events they put on throughout the month. Before we left we stopped by the bathroom and noticed they have a Photo Booth and immediately we beyond excited, this is such a cute and smart way to show off their brand and makes people have such a great and lasting memory of this brewery! I loved it and will be returning soon to hangout on their spacious patio and those pinball machines!

Really cool and lively place. Nice selection of beers on tap, they even had one with side pull and one cask. NEIPA apparantly was the main style for them as i understood. Tried four beers here. A pilsner, impy stout, and two neipas. Double Ghost Vision: Citra Nectaron was really nice.

I LOVE Modist. I'll preface this review by saying that... As a wedding photographer, this was a BLAST. It's really fun to shoot in a bit unconventional locations and it was just so fun photographing here. The surrounding district is like a playground for a photographer and the staff at Modist are amazing. Would recommend!

Awesome super friendly brewery! Gabriel was very informative and gave me great recommendations for the area before the BoSox game. If there was a perfect brewery vibe this is it!

This place was busy, they had a DJ and there was a great atmosphere. I decided to try the 2 BA stouts, on the pricey side at $9 ea for 4oz. Unfortunately, they didn't have any BA flavor profile, it's sad because I didn't even drank half of them..

Exceptional beer / special people / great vibes… Modist is my one happy place in town and guaranteed amazing times. Every single person and every beer guarantees that! Please dont hesitate to visit!

The beer was great and the service was friendly. It had a cool pre-game vibe prior to the Twins game. I could have done without the DJ, perhaps other like that junk.

Tried the Blueberry Second Breffix • Imperial Breakfast Stout, and it is amazing! Definitely worth trying! If you get here early enough, grab the couches! They are comfortable!

So I only got to have one beer here, the place was packed on a Tuesday. Who would have thunk it. I really really liked the one beer I had false pattern hazy pale ale 5.5%, the hops were closer to west coast, but it was smooth, semi sweet and quite crushable. The place is huge. The music was loud and they are dog friendly. You have to order your drink by standing in line and then finding a seat. Didn't love the set up, but loved the beer. And the service was good.

We had a great time at modist. The service was friendly and prompt. We ordered the grape apes and it was very yummy. They had it on tap. The vibe inside was nice and there were a good amount of people there around 6 pm. There is a photo booth in the back near the bathrooms that is completely free- make sure to take advantage of such a fun perk!

This is a funky, cool brewery in the same area as a lot of funky breweries. I would definitely recommend stopping here! We tried some new beers, and some new (to us) THC seltzers. The brewery also featured a donut vending machine and a really fun photobooth. This felt like a really inclusive, safe bar.

Huge space, good selection. Outdoor patio. Alcohol, THC, donut vending machines. All they need is a shawarma booth to have all four food groups.

Super cute 90s vibes, very dog friendly, and a good time. Beers are super fresh and crisp! Great random / fun find

Modist Brewing was the perfect stop on our way to the Twins game last Saturday, 9/28. It was busy but not overcrowded as the indoor space is big with a good sized outdoor area as well. There was a DJ playing some general house music, not too heavy with a vibey touch, that really set the mood and atmosphere. The beer selection is solid, and I would loved to have tried more options had we not been needing to get to the game given it was my first time visiting. Cheers!

On Saturday afternoon we stopped in for a beer. There were a variety of people sitting at the tables talking. There was a small craft fair going on which I thought was interesting and unusual. We ordered a beer. Both my husband and I enjoyed what we chose. Service was quick and friendly. It wasn't overcrowded and there was a good variety of music playing. It was a great place to stop in and have a beer.

One of my favorite breweries! Their THC seltzers are so good as are their sours. It can be a little crowded but if you can find the seat the drinks are worth it.

Came here on a Sunny Sunday afternoon and it was perfect! I love the big open space and the outdoor patio. Their beer selection is great I personally loved the coffee beer here, I have had others and this was by far my favorite out of the breweries I have been to. You have to try their THC seltzers! They were so flavorful and of course a great but subtle buzz after is what we are looking for! I loved their merch as well, very trendy and comfortable. I like that they don't look like brewery merch from far away. The bartenders were really nice and helpful when we asked questions about some of the beers on tap. They also have a FREE photo-booth near the bathrooms which prints out 2 copies of your photos. This is unheard of in NYC so please take advantage of a nice memory moment! This place is also dog and family friendly :) Cheers!

Had a fabulous evening in Modist's brand new event space with fantastic beer, food, and fun! The beer was spot on and paired expertly with the delicious food prepared by Guacaya. The space itself is colorful and large enough for a wedding and corporate events. There is a small sitting area provided by the venue upstairs, with a view of the brewing equipment and brewery. I highly recommend this venue to anyone wanting to host a party or corporate event.

Great, innovative brews in a nice open taproom. They hold a lot of events and turned the back into a large space for markets and shows. The staff is always welcoming, friendly, and happy to chat. I've had a lot of their beers and the worst of them has still been pretty good. Their really dog and family friendly so bring everyone.

Stopped in Monday. My beertender was Val, who I remember from my last visit many moons ago, she was delightfully memorable though, and did a wonderful job describing each beer which steered me to each one. I tried the Fang & Bone, Danger Noodle, Honeycomb Catacomb and Gifts of the Sacred Father. All were delicious but the Honeycomb walked away my favorite and left me seriously debating ordering another one, but bigger than a taster pour!! Thanks Modist for always consistently having friendly, rad beertenders slanging your delicious beers in your spacious tap room!! Cheers

Modist has a great beer selection, but my favorite are their THC seltzers. Best in the city in my opinion. The space is a bit cold feeling, but that's typical of a brewery. I do like that you can bring your own food, and sometimes they have a food truck scheduled for the night.

Great brewery with friendly staff and a great patio for the summer! I haven't had a beer that I haven't like here yet. I also love the art work and ample natural lighting. It's a little smaller with less seating than some other breweries but it's a great option in North Loop.

Great service at Modist. They had a pretty good amount of brews on tap when I visited. Probably around 20ish. I usually opt for the regular ipa but bartender told me to try the sour that they had freshly canned that morning. Glad I did, as it was a perfect combo of tart and sweet. The pub is fairly large with plenty of seating space along with outdoor seating which I assume is great in the summer around twins games (I visited in March). Didn't have space in my bags to grab anything to go but I'm sure I'll visit again next time I'm in town.

Really cool brewery. Big space. Right next to Target field. Perfect place to go after a night game. Cool art on the wall. Great vibes here. Would come back again in the future to try the different types of beer. Love this place!

Stopped by here for a a few drinks with some friends. Nice open space. Cool vibes. And great beers. The person at the counter was super helpful in recommending which beers would be best to try. The beers were great. And just a friendly and clean place to hang out and have a few with your friends. Been there a couple times now and don't see it changing anytime soon. Recommended.

Modist Brewing in Minneapolis is one of my favorite breweries to visit. I love their IPA's and their facility. So many bright colors! The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about their beers. I always ask when I visit what they recommend for an IPA and they have yet to disappoint me. Some of my favorite IPA's that I have tried so far are Dream Yard and Forbidden Canyons. I can't wait to visit again and try out some new beers!

Cute spot, great ambiance Old fashioned is a bit strong and bitter, but beers are great

A great place to stop and grab a beer or even a thc beverage or gummies. This particular night they had a DJ up until 11. They also have a great patio and the beertenders are very friendly and nice. Hubby approves of their IPAS.

Had a beer and the vibe was really lovely. I believe I spoke with Val and I asked about other breweries. She was super friendly and gave me some recommendations! If I'm ever there again I would stop in for another!

I had been meaning to make it to @modistbrewing to get a taste of some ol' midwest tater tot hotdish, and at the same time found a couple more beers to try! Modist is located in a 'happening' part of town with Graze, Target Field, many other breweries (Fulton, Indeed, Number 12, Stormking, and others), and some of the best restaurants in the Twin Cities. Whether just looking for a pre-Twins game libation or looking for a beer with friends, Modist is always a great choice. Tater Tot Hotdish: A Double Dry Hopped Double IPA made in collaboration with Other Half. It has whirlpool hop additions of Cryo Citra, Idaho 7, and Motueka, DDH of HBC586, Strata, and Nelson Sauvin, and malt bill of 2-Row, Malted Wheat, Malted Oats, Pale Ale, Flaked Oats, and Flaked Rye. Needless to say - complex. Hop bitterness is balanced by a fruitiness of tangerine / orange with mild hints of guava. Malt body rises on finish with toasted bread qualities, but gives way to orange juice flavors. Between the Times: Imperial Porter in collaboration with Modist Maker Kurt Waltenbaugh. Malt bill of Pale Ale, Brown Malt, Heritage Crystal, and Chocolate Malt. The beer was conditioned on Ceylon Cinnamon, Hazelnuts, and Ghana Cocoa Nibs. Delectable treat of a beer with dark chocolate notes competing with a large nuttiness from the hazelnuts that creates an enjoyable complex Porter. Wasteland: A Double Dry Hopped Rye IPA with Malted Rye, Red X Malt, Red Crystal Rye malt bill. Hopped & Double Dry Hopped with Columbus Cryo and Centennial. Medium-high bitterness, medium spiciness from usage of rye, and medium resin aroma / flavor. Completely different from Tater Tot Hotdish and shows Modist's range in the IPA game.

Modist is one of if not the best and most consistent breweries in Minneapolis or even the Twin Cities. There are a few flagshig/"mainstay" beers which are solid and definitely can be go-to beers - the First Call, a cold press coffee beer which is a lager, is one of my favorite beers. There are also several limited/rotating beers of different styles at any given time with some innovative flavors/combination of flavors and various types of hops - all that I've tried are well-balanced - there's no one dominant/overpowering flavor that can make a beer undrinkable. It's in a great location - right near Target Field (home of the Twins,) next door to a food hall and down the street from another one, as well as many other restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and other breweries. if you feel like staying put, there's usually a food truck. It can get very crowded and can be quite loud especially if there's a DJ or event going on but there's a few spots you can escape to and hold a conversation. They allow dogs in the taproom and on their (fairly small) patio. The owners and staff seem like great people having high-standards/taking pride in what they produce and supporting the community, charities, and causes.

Just stopped in for a brew. The place was really hopping due to many people stopping by on their way to the football game. It was comfortable inside and the beer was good. I enjoyed the Ritual Night.

Came by for a beer on a Wednesday afternoon to unwind. Modern interior with bright sleek designs, reminiscent of an upscale brunch spot. Took a stool up at the bar and got a look at the draft list behind the counter. Opted for the "Tater Tot Hotdish" IPA ($7) - a thick hazy ale with all sorts of citrus peel flavors. Strong and something to sip on while at the bar. Not really much to distract here, as there are no TV's/activities around. Good table seating for groups however. Service here is good, albeit a bit gruff. Fine if in the area and want to try some of their particular brews.

One of the definitions of Modist: (2) A modern artistic expression utilizing modification to achieve a self-conscious & intentional break from the conventional. Yes, a break from the usual. We preordered the At the Center of Everything, a bourbon barrel aged triple coconut imperial milk stout. Since it's midwinter here, biking here was not an option. Street parking was busy on the Saturday we visited. My vehicle of choice to visit Modist is my trusty bicycle (no parking worries) or a ride on the downtown train (again, no parking). We split up-one to pickup our bottles of Center of Everything-and the other to circle around until a parking spot could open up.

Great beer! Great vibe! Staff is always friendly, knowledgeable, and quick! Best music selection in the North Loop! They also wear their pride outright! Flags up all year long! And I appreciate the gender neutral bathrooms and the BLM flag!

Another great brewery out of Minneapolis! I so need to make a return trip to explore craft beer culture there more! For Modist Brewing I had three different beers of theirs all in which were very enjoyable! Soft Minute was one of the beers we got started on. This was a great pilsner that was easy and very drinkable! I enjoyed the breadiness flavor from this one and not too terribly heavy handed with the hops which I appreciate when it comes to pilsners. The next one up was the False Pattern pale ale. Once again another hit as far as Steve and I are concerned. We love sitting down to a good pale ale and this one definitely fit the bill for that! The final one was my favorite. The Into It comes in a couple different versions but we had the tangerine and lime and really liked it a lot! We love lagers, especially during the warmer weather and at the time when we had Into It it was right at that appropriate time. Modist makes a lot of other intriguing beers besides the three we had and that of in itself makes this brewery well worth revisiting!

We loved this beer. Keep tabs on their social media especially Instagram for their newest releases and drops which usually happen on Saturdays. Now I have not been inside because honestly I really got in their beer during COVID. Also y'all remember that just because you CAN go inside bars and restaurants now doesn't mean you SHOULD. They do have a little patio out front that seems open for reservations. Anyways, their curbside pickup for crowlers is super easy and you can order online ahead of time and they have numbered spots to pull up in. You can get things that don't make it to the liquor stores and also it's fresh fresh! The parking is a little tight so just use caution. The beer shines, the milkshake shook IPA is great for my partner who can have lactose; I'm vegan so I just make sure whatever I am ordering does not have lactose and I can check that on their up to date online shop. I just had the tangerine lager this weekend and it was awesome! This place is also super close to the Twins stadium. Furthermore, they were super active on social media during the George Floyd protests, really supporting the people participating and making sure they are working on collaborations that reflect social justice movements. So, in addition to stellar beer they have good motives. That really helps me feel solid supporting them out of the many breweries in the area.

Great vibes and they are dog friendly! They have great beers too across a spectrum of styles! My favorite of the ones we tried was the Catching Signals - barrel aged imperial stout.

Excellent micro-brewery. They carry a variety of the THC infused drinks, including Melt Blood orange which is my favorite with some stevia to sweeten it. They open at 4 pm promptly and a very casual and friendly crowd soon converged there. Will definitely return to this place!

I was surprised when I realized I have not reviewed Modist yet. I really enjoy this brewery all the time. I love some of the new brews and some of the great standing brews. Dreamyard happeneds to be one of my favorite beers from a MN brewery. I love their standing beers more then the one limited ones. I have no clue but, I am never as impressed. The tap room is large with a nice little outside patio. The bar area is great and they are always polite. This is a great spot to visit beforeor after Twins Games due to location. It's a great Minnesota brewery and a just visit if your from out of town!

Modist's Deviant Minds is the best beer I've had in a while! The grapefruit, lime, salt flavors meld together so well and there's a lot of depth - it almost tastes more like a smoothie than a beer. I did just find out that it's only a seasonal brew and I think they might be out now which is so upsetting! Love hanging at the brewery though wish they had a larger patio area as it fills up quickly on weekends. Modist is a North Loop staple and I'll continue coming and trying to find my Deviant Minds replacement :)

Love the beer selection and the staff was great. We had so much fun we left a credit card on accident and went back three times while visiting Minneapolis.

Probably our favorite brewery to visit. Super cheap and amazing beer. Friendly staff and plenty of seating. Some outdoor too. They're taking reservations now with COVID and have a pretty good system down. Feel free to bring your furry friends too!

Really enjoyed visiting this brewery. We showed up close to closing time, so we look forward to going back and trying some more!

Great beer and great atmosphere. Staff was very helpful. There was a small event going on but still plenty of spots to grab a beer. Also dog friendly.

It's nice and quiet today and surprising as 30 min after opening and there are still places to seat. They have a release today which is why I thought it would be busier. The staff is nice and attentive and works as hard and fast as possible on a busy day. They do allow children and dogs inside the taproom as long as behaved. On street metered parking so bring your quarters for them. Overall, a big place with lots of seating and they have a patio. Normally they do have an onsite food truck but this weekend they are on vacation. Come check it out but would recommend go when it opens especially if you have a big group.

Quite simply my favorite metro Twin Cities craft beer. Anything hazy from them is on point if you're an IPA person.

Oh grrrll. Invisible String Strawberry Rhubarb lager is my new favorite hot-summer-day beer!! Yum. They sell their own brews (including a coffee lager) in a warehouse NorthLoop setting in MPLS. Come in. Cool down on the outside & the inside. Oh! And my friend likes their Deviant Minds Paloma Gose. Yummy. Friendly staff. Friendly guests. Friendly tap room. Go for it.

Great spot near the baseball stadium with a cool atmosphere and a solid tap lineup. Rotating fresh pours, some limited cans and crowlers to go, and cool boats art make this a solid space for a few sips. The service is great. Just watch out for the road outside. It's under construction as of July 2019 and likely will be for a few months. Otherwise, this place is a win.

Man, Modist is always great. Their permanent list of beers are unique and tasty, but they've always got new beers out. They do everything right, afaict. Sours, stouts, IPAs, lagers... Just pick something.

Spectacular drinks from Modist. I had one a local Minneapolis restaurant and I knew I had to visit the brewery to get more. In particular, I love how their beers are unique, a brewery with their own distinctive stamp rather than being marginally different than the rest. My favorites are the False Pattern and Dreamyard. It is super fresh, hoppy and hazy! Please sell them in Chicago!!!!

Ok so I realize covid is going on and my friends and I are totally about following rules, but after a spent $45 on 2 flights for $45. And after I went to the other table of 4 to tell them what I got I got kicked out without drinking our beers even though ibhsd a mask on and was just telling us what I had bought. Total B.S. we all felt like because we were over 40 we were being age discriminated against because we were over 40 and they didn't want us in there. A real low life place don't waist your time going here.

This is conveniently located to Target Field, for a beer before a MN Twins game. The beer is good. First Call is a favorite, which is a cold press coffee lager. Others in my group liked the Orange Dreamsicle IPA and Guava and Tangerine Sour. The space is okay - nothing fancy. It also gets packed prior to MN Twins games. Arrive early if you want a spot on the patio. There is typically a food truck outside. Graze just opened next door, so you could grab food and bring it over to Modist.

Modist is always keeping it fresh by switching up their choices for brews. My current favorite is the Apiary Drip. My staple favorite is Dreamyard, you really can't go wrong with that as an option since it's so thirst quenching and delicious. Atmosphere can be a little loud if the garage doors aren't open but games are available and they have free pacman in the corner by the entrance. AMAZING!

First time here after getting the MN Twins love your melon promo on Thursday. This place is closer to Target Field, so glad I saw the Big M from a distance. I ordered Supra Lager at 5% ABV and sampled Mallow, a really good 5.2% cream ale with barley, corn, oats, milk sugar, marshmallows and vanilla bean. After I finished Supra, I ordered the Mallow in a tulip glass and then sampled Easy Killer Pilsner (ok) and Shook Pineapple Milkshake IPA, also just ok. I really liked this brewery because of nice variety of beers, nice and friendly staff and comfy couches. I think this brewery may beat out Fulton as my go to place before Twins Games, and they are dog friendly.

oh the 8 breweries that i tried out in the greater Minneapolis area, Modist was perhaps the friendliest, coziest, great damn soundtrackiest of them all. I was never at any point of my visit here not felt like i was the most important person in the world. the two fantastic beer servers were happy to answer questions, and make suggestions that all turned out to be dead on accurate in every single way. I had a couple tiny beers here because I was pacing myself, the coconut stout and the honey sweet honey beer which together produced a giant mass of warmth and saftey in my being that i still feel today, weeks after the experience. i hope that you will try this wonderful brewing establishment out and i pray that you have the same experience as i did, except for the time i went outside and got lost and couldn't find my car. that part, you can skip it.

Visited here specifically for DDH Double Ghost Vision after arriving in town. This particular juice bomb was just released that week and cans were no where to be found in town. So I went to the source for this one is a favorite style of mine. Dogs are allowed here which is pretty cool don't think I've seen that in a Minnesota brewery. No flights here but if you chat up the people long enough or annoy them it's possible to get a sample. Grabbed a bottle of Humuculus for around 18.00 for Christmas party. ''Twas thick as motor oil but quite tasty. Liked this spot would return if in area.
