Venn Brewing Company - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Because of a gluten allergy this is the first brewery I have been to in over 3 years where I could order beer, and it was delicious! Their beers are all "gluten reduced" which meant I could order almost anything, with the exception of any wheat beers. You can see the explanation on their website. Staff was awesome, very fast and friendly. Beers were even better. Prices were great, with the make your own flight option being easy and affordable. Even have some canned for purchase. There was a food truck outside which we didn't try but it smelled great. Parking was a challenge but all in all a great experience.

Honest Reviews

Ezra was awesome! Visiting the area from Colorado and was looking for some good THC infused drinks and he recommended some THC drinks that hit the spot! Delicious drinks, great atmosphere and very down to earth staff. Be sure to check this place out if looking for a good brewery in the area!

We are from the Rochester area and this seems to be a very popular place to go. Lots of beers to choose from. They are dog friendly inside! The main reason for 3 stars is due to another couple had brought in their (not well behaved) dog. It was barking and not getting along with other dogs and the staff didn't do anything about it. It was embarrassing and made us want to leave earlier than anticipated. Very unfortunate. We might be back, but probably not.

Had a great evening here with my wife. We shared two flights so we could try most of the beers available. The staff was great at filling the flights based on my not so specific requests. We also shared some food from the food truck in the heated outside seating area. It was pretty awesome to see all the friendly dogs and dog owners as an added bonus.

Tasty beer, little parking and sooo many dogs. Will try again when the weather is warmer for sure.

Venn Brewing is a great spot with a cozy vibe and a fantastic beer selection. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is perfect for relaxing. It’s also super pet-friendly, so you can bring your dog along. A must-visit for craft beer lovers!

I have visited Venn since it opened several years ago. I love the location, they always have a fairly broad range of beers on tap, and even some wild "unusual" beers sometimes offered, like a "Mexican Dark Lager" or an "Apricot Wheat". I think their preference is for brewing a lot of different beers that fit lots of "check boxes" that prove to be just "ok" to me. They satisfy the masses, no doubt about that.

But the location is great, parking can be a slight issue, and often we have to park way off in the side-streets and walk. Why I give it a 4-star is that lately the crowd that is attracted to Venn is kinda loud and "different". No slams whatsoever, it's just not my "crew". And so so so many dogs too! On the night we were there we saw a big dog fight, like right in the middle of the brewery. Crazy.

I also am kinda put off by the music selection, which is often very loud and hard-core rock or grunge. Again, no slam at all, just not my personal vibe. Obviously, others love the vibe, as it's often very crowded... So it's just me clearly. Masks are no longer required.

I do love love love sitting outside Venn on the large patio, with the light rail trains running out in front. On a beautiful summer evening, that patio is fantastic. So, overall, a solid 4 stars from me. Just not exactly my vibe, that's all. Personal choice clearly.

Not a beer drinker. But that didn’t matter at Venn. They accommodate all types of beverage connoisseurs. My favorite is the nectar, which is like a sweet tart in a glass. I also have enjoyed a few sours. The cherry lime is my favorite. It is tart! Also enjoyed some of the food trucks. Taco Tuesday was the favorite - $12 for a beer and tacos. This place is so dog friendly - indoors and outdoors. Plenty of seating. Parking is a bit dicey but options on the local streets help. Cheers!
