Brit's Pub is pretty awesome. Drink a Pimm's Cup and do some lawn bowling. Hard to beat.

We went to a Twins game at Target Field last time I was there for a bachelor party. Bought really cheap seats, and just watched the game from bar (good views) and talked with the organ player who plays from the bar the whole time.

Too many Big Gingers later, and I don't remember the names of the bars we hit up, but it was a great time. Would love to go bar hopping up there again.

Here's some of the things that were on the list for mine (it hasn't happened yet, but we made a good list of places)

Breweries:
Surly - Now their taproom is open so you can actually drink there. They also do food trucks.
Harriet Brewing - Small, unique styles. Wasn't my favorite.
Dangerous Man - Haven't been but I've heard it's pretty cool.
Indeed - Awesome taproom with games (shuffleboard, bags, etc)
Fulton - Solid beer, nice patio area (Right by Target Field)

Bars:
Kieran's - Cool Irish bar. They are the creators of 2 Gingers, so they have a lot of that stuff going on.
The Local - More of a hip Irish bar. They have a kissing booth if that is your thing.
O'Donovans - My personal favorite. Tons of whiskey selections.
Gluek - Good food and a nice beer selection
Town Hall - Brew pub with some awesome beers on tap
Happy Gnome - Beer geekery
Republic - More beer geekery

While I enjoy most of these places and am also a beer geek, I don't consider them "bachelor party" type places. Also, Surly and Harriet in a party bus?

What type of place are you guys looking for? Good beer? Cheap beer? Places where girls are?
