Happy “Drinksgiving” Thanksgiving – One Year Anniversary Party

Happy “Drinksgiving” Thanksgiving – One Year Anniversary Party

As we reflect on the past year or so in building Hoppy Girl Brewing dba Turning Waters Back Alley Brewing Co, we want to say THANK YOU!  Thank you to everyone who believed in us, doubted us, persevered with us, encouraged us and most of all fell in love with Ford’s amazing craftbeers.  Thanksgiving Day 2017 was the first day we opened as an official craftbeer bar.  It took until St. Patty’s Day weekend 2018 to graduate to the next level as a craftbeer brewpub, but still further when we were finally able to brew and sell our own craftbeer.  What a wild ride from nearly seven years ago living in South Florida and dreaming of owning a brewery/brewpub.  We just started our homebrewing on our electric flat top stove in our one bedroom condo in Florida and roll forward to today, we are “living the dream.”  A HUGE thank you to John Biever, who did all of our construction and even named his own beer after the infamous Chubby Chipmonk, Pale Wheat Ale.  We now have Skinny Biever, which is a lighter version of Chubby Chipmonk.  Stop in and learn how Chubby got the name and how we named many of our other beers.  Turning-Waters-Back-Alley-Brewing-Co-Hoppy-Girl-Brewing-Wabasha-MN-Kellogg-Lake City-First-Brewery-Since-Prohibition

As we embark on our one year anniversary, we want to encourage you to enjoy all we have to offer.  Stay at Turning Waters Bed, Breakfast & Adventure and enjoy having your personal brewpub in the backyard.  We offer a 5 course breakfast and a complimentary glass of beer or wine with each night of your stay.  During Shop Small Saturday, take advantage of our Gift Certificate Sale Offer.  Call Brenda for details of how to get $25 extra goodies at the brewpub by giving the gift of a night(s) stay.

Brenda & Ford Pearson are proud to announce they have jumped through all hoops over the past few years to become the FIRST Brewery Brewpub in Wabasha, MN, since Prohibition. Of course, there are the minor details like getting the hoses to arrive so we can brew on our brand new 3bbl STOUT tanks and of course more money to get MORE fermenters so we can have all your favorites like Chubby Chipmonk, Mango Tango Dble IPA, Midnight Oil Triple Black IPA, Everything But the Kitchen Sink Breakfast Stout (EBTKS), Joy of Almonds Russian Imperial Stout and don’t let me forget the infamous Salted Caramel Russian Imperial Stout. Yes, Sharonica our Strawberry Rhubard Ale and Sunset Saison, Chubby Blu Balls, Morning Chub and so many more that our over sixty mugclub members have sampled and enjoyed for years as #homebrew.

Mark your calendar for Sunday, June 10th as we kick of Beer, Bikes & Brats with LIVE music from the JET to RIO, food, fun, leisure bike ride along the Mississippi River, bags/boards, GIANT Jenga and more…..

If you are traveling down the Great River Road Garage Sale Trail and stop into Wabasha, MN, then stop in at our sale at Turning Waters Bed, Breakfast, Adventure and Hoppy Girl Brewing dba Turning Waters Back Alley Brewing Co. We have a public restroom, refreshments for young and of drinking age. Hungry? We have pizza and ice cream and snacks for purchase as well. We are a craftbeer brewpub and specialize in brewing our own beer. Since we are still patiently, impatiently waiting for our brewpub license, you may only sample our beer that we brew (homebrew). It will give you a good idea that you will love what we have instore when we can sell our craftbeer. Wabasha will have many sales all over the city so give yourself time to enjoy our great river city and make plans to come back and stay with us for a few days and enjoy all we have to offer besides garage sales. Cheers and see you soon.
