We know what you're wondering. When does Utepils open? What food truck is there? Are there events? What beers are on tap? We've got you covered!
Food trucks are parked outside our brewery daily to give you tasty options that pair with your favorite beers. You can also order take-out from local restaurants to be delivered and enjoyed in our Taproom.

No. First, we are a production facility with a strict no-pet policy inside our building. However, well-behaved dogs are welcome outdoors in our Beer Garden. Please walk back via the path alongside the building to access the Beer Garden.
Yes. We have a ramp from the entrance to the Taproom and a lift at the end of the bathroom hallway. If you have more questions about how our team works to provide a convenient, enjoyable experience for every member of our community, contact us today.
No problem! That’s why we give your card back to you, but please be aware we have the right to charge a 20% gratuity fee for any unclosed tabs by the end of the night.
Yes. The password is available at the bar.
We allow party buses but reserve the right to refuse service as necessary if guests are too intoxicated or the Taproom is at capacity. Please inform us ahead of time if you plan to stop at our brewery by filling out our event request form.
We currently do not offer guided tours. However, as you enter the Taproom, you’ll walk right through our state-of-the-art brewhouse and our cellar of fermentation tanks holding over 2,000 kegs of beer!
Utepils Brewing does not own or control the parking lot outside of our building. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the security of your vehicle in the parking lot overnight.
If you need an overnight parking space, street parking is allowed (subject to regular city rules) along Thomas Ave N & Inglewood Ave N and beyond. Please respect tenant-specific parking signage in and around the brewery and other neighboring homes and businesses.
We don’t play favorites at Utepils. That’s why we look for ways to occasionally support local sports leagues as a whole instead of sponsoring individual teams. We want to be everyone’s home bar as a neutral meeting place.
Situationally, we do make donations. Please contact us for consideration.
You can purchase tickets to our festivals and other events at the door or online to gain access to any exclusive pre-sale offers and bundles. Kiddos 12 and under (some exclusions may apply) are free during our ticketed festivals and events!

In the state of Minnesota, we are only allowed to serve the alcoholic beverages that we produce on-site. We do not produce wine or cider in our facility. We do produce a hard seltzer with ever-changing flavors to complement our beer as an alcoholic option.
Yes. We offer a variety of non-alcoholic beverages, including, but not limited to: sodas, kombucha, sparkling water, N/A beer and apple juice for those who are kids at heart. We also produce Bandwagon, a THC infused sparkling water available for adults (21 plus) only.
Food trucks park in front of Utepils on a nightly basis. Please check our food truck schedule for a full listing of trucks. If you need a quick bite, we also offer pre-packaged locally produced munchies.

No. In Minnesota, we are only allowed to serve the alcoholic beverages we produce on-site. We cannot allow any other alcoholic beverages on our premises. We also sell a wide variety of non-alcoholic beverages.
We currently have a rotating flavored hard seltzer, “Party Water,” that is gluten-reduced. We also have a few non-alcoholic options, including kombucha and sparkling water. Our beer, however, is not gluten-free, nor is our brewery a gluten-free facility.
Yes! Our Taproom is family-friendly and offers non-alcoholic options for all ages. Please be aware that our Brewery is a production facility and our Beer Garden is next to a creek. We understand you’ve come to relax and have fun, it is your responsibility to supervise your children.
We don’t want to cramp your style. Our current Taproom layout seats around 200 guests. We also have a beer garden (seasonally) available with additional seating to accommodate up to another 150+ guests.
We operate on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have a large group, we do offer paid reservations via our Private Events page.

Yes, we do! Pre-filled 64 oz. growlers and 750 ml. jars (glass crowlers) plus a selection of our canned beers (including some not available in stores) are available for sale during our regular hours of operation until 10 p.m (Sundays before 6pm). State law restricts the amount of canned beer we can sell to an individual to 128 oz. per person per day. By law, all “off-sale” beers must be consumed off the brewery’s property.
To maintain the quality of our beer, we only fill our products into Utepils branded and sanitized growlers/jars.
We love to recycle our growlers/jars. If you return clean Utepils growler/jars, we will give you a card good for $1 off your next pint.
Our growler/jars are good UNOPENED for up to four weeks. Once opened, growlers should be consumed immediately for the best beer experience. Every time the cap is removed, the beer loses carbonation and flavor.
We get it. Sometimes, you just want to take the feeling of Utepils home. You can purchase growlers, crowlers, and cans at our Taproom or find Utepils at local bars, restaurants, and retailers near you!
