WAT? - Anniversary Edition
It’s been roughly a year since we recorded our first show so we thought we’d do a special video podcast to celebrate.
It is the first full length video podcast that we have recorded, it may take a while to download but we think it’s worth the wait!
This is, after all, the only place you will hear about the Twin Cities first ever specialty beer store. What is a specialty beer store? Watch our show and find out….

Great to hear what’s going on with you guys. I look forward to checking out the store once you get it up and running.

Oh.
Well, at least the gap wasn’t because of bridges falling down or you guys fighting over a women.
Good luck with the Convict’s Pint!

Phillip’s looking a lot like Pete Slosberg right there!

This is awesome news. Can’t wait to see it!

[…] New video episode of What Ale’s Thee? They talk about a new specialty beer store that Alvey is opening up soon, hopefully in Northeast. This is excellent news. No liquor, some wine, no Coors or signs saying how cheap the beer is. It will be all quality beer - local, craft, Belgian, etc. […]

Congrats Jason, can’t wait to check out the shop.

I was waiting for Phil to drop the mug when he was looking it over.
That is great news man. It is awesome to hear. If you are in NE I can probably bike by there on my way home from work when it is biking season. I can grab a few bottles and head home. It’s very exciting news. I wish you the best.

Thanks guys,
The location is still an issue, the one I would like is 1101 Main st NE. (corner of Broadway and Marshall just a block away from the old Grain Belt Brewery) It’s a new block of condos with retail on the ground floor. You might know it, they have a Snap Fitness in there already.
There are some people objecting to a store like this in there and we are trying to make them understand that this is NOT anything like your average liquor store.
I hope they agree, that is the last location in NE that is zoned correctly for “Off Sale”.
I think a unique store like this would fit perfectly within that neighborhood, it would compliment the Ritz, The Modern, 331, and certainly be an injection to the local economy.
I’ve learned that people object to new liquor stores (even if they are actually a specialty beer store ) pretty much anytime one is suggested.
The struggle continues.
One other thing, I had to change the name. Apparently too many people didn’t get the Aussie heritage joke with “The Convict’s Pint”. So it will now be called - “The Four Firkins”. (Four of them fill a barrel).

Hey Jason, I stopped at Erik’s today to drop off our bikes for their spring tune-ups. Sorry to hear you are no longer the manager at the Bloomington store, but best of luck with The Four Firkins. And thanks for all the help and encouragement you gave me the past three biking seasons. – Kirk, now in Eagan
