Tin Whiskers is the one I've been to that's close to you. It's good.
If you like Mexican food, you may want to try Wabasha Brewing in West St Paul. I've never been to the brewery but there are a couple of great Mexican restaurants in the area.

Being in that area, you may want to eat at Cosetta's. It's a St Paul institution. Deli-style Italian food.
Yah, doesn't have to be a brewery and maybe better if it isn't. Not EVERYBODY likes beer after all. Food and alternative drinks are pretty sketchy at the beer joints.
Ox Cart is a "cool spot" but hotter than the blazes on a hot day for happy hour.
Billy's on Grand.
This may be interesting only to me but I recently discovered that a neighbor and I were both at Billy's watching the OJ chase.
If you go to Billy's, you will see Billy.. hammered.. chatting it up at the end of the bar. Dude loves to dip into his own supply let me tell ya hahaha
Cosetta's is great, it's always jam-packed when I'm there though, which is an annoyance to me haha. But definitely worth it if you've never been/visiting the area
Yeah, you're not lying lol. But any outdoor area gets hotter than blazes on a hot day in Minnesota lol. I was just thinking they have enough room to link together tables for 20+ people. Also has shuffleboard and a food menu. May be an option, maybe not
I think it's always busy but we've always been able to find a place to sit. Generally though, there isn't enough room for all of your trays at the table.
It's been a few years, but that taproom is really neat. I wish we got more of their stuff, agree that it's underrated.
Was just up there this past weekend. Clutch Brewing is really good. I would also look into Urban Growler that might have been my favorite in the St. Paul area.
I really like what BlackStack and Modist are doing. All of the beers I've tried from BS, except for one, have been really solid. Double Ghost Vision, FYI ICIMI LOL BRB CYA (ISO:FT) and Double Dreamyard are killer beers from Modist.
Also, Hum's Liquor on Lyndale Ave in Minneapolis, has a really good selection of beer if you are looking for a bottle shop.

I'll report back on my findings. May also try out the escape room on our way into the city.
Depending on how far out of your way you want to go, Little Thistle and Forager in Rochester are really good.
Looks like that would add about an hour to my drive and then once I was over there I would feel like I would have to stop in Decorah, then Pivo, .....
Excited to hear where you go. I would say that Barrel Theory should be #1 on your list but that is just my humble opinion.
