Dangerous Man Brewing Co

Plus three stars for the cool atmosphere, awesome beer and that damn peanut butter porter.
Minus 1 for the $ 10.00 minimum cc charge and community tables (me and my hermit friends wanna be hermits).
Will be back!

Came here for a friend’s get-​together, and was glad to be able to sample their delicious house IPA (and great environment) before leaving town. A cozy environment and great place to also get together w/​a group of friends. Recommend!

By far my favorite brewery in the twin cities. Huge selection of very different beers. I can’t wait to go back. And then go back again. And again! Did I mention the awesome atmosphere and amazing staff? A must if you’re into beers!
Pecan Porter
Vanilla Red
Peanut Butter
Scottish Ale

The peanut butter porter is heaven in a glass. I love that they often have food trucks parked outside, so you can enjoy awesome food while basking in the glory of the PBP, or whatever your beer of choice may be– IMO, you can’t go wrong, they’re all great.
Their staff is great and when it’s not crazy busy, which it often is because their beer is so awesome, I enjoy schmoozing with the fine people behind the counter. Plus you can buy a growler to bring home. I mean really, does it get any better than that?

Great beer. Great atmosphere! Do the worry if it doesn’t appear there is an open seat. Just look around a join in with someone! We did and had more fun talking with people we just met then any other stop we made on our road trip!
Yes the PBP was awesome! The DM/​Surly Collaboration was outstanding also!

A beer friend told me if I was heading around Minny to fill growlers, I had to try Dangerous Man’s peanut butter porter. The husband was skeptical at best, but he absolutely loved it.
Dangerous Man is super convenient and easy to run in and out for fills. I tried a few other styles while I was there, loving the rose infused beer so much I ended up buying two of the oversized cans that were fresh filled and waiting in the cooler.
While sometimes it’s nice to go in and hangout in a taproom, I loved the grab and go style of Dangerous Man as well as the interesting and unique flavors. By far my favorite stop of my beer/​cider tour around Minny.

I love this place!
Good Beer and good people!

Such a cool vibe here– open & airy with big windows, but still cozy. Great for a day drink. Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon & it had a mixed crowd– 20 somethings, parents with kids, older folks, etc. We were able to sit at one of the long tables near the bar. They have little glasses to let you sample some beers before you order which I appreciated.
I got the peanut butter porter– I’m usually not one for heavy or «flavored» beers but oh my goodness– this was excellent. It tasted exactly like peanut butter, and I don’t know how. Would have been perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you like PB, get this.
Chocolate milk stout was also good!

Went there a few days ago. Pretty cool place with down good beers. Loved the Chocolate Milk Stout and the Centenniale.
Bartenders were very knowledgeable as well.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. My beer of choice is anything that is a stout or porter and they have the best of the best. All of their brews are creamy and thick, exactly how I like it. The brewery itself is very cozy and warm. I’ve heard that it is usually pretty busy on weekend nights so I was prepared. I went on a Saturday night and it was packed. They released a new beer and everyone was going crazy over it. I just went with the generic Peanut Butter Porter. I’ve had it before and it was all that I was craving. However, one of my friends introduced me to the idea of mixing the Chocolate Milk Stout with the Peanut Butter Porter and OMG it was so amazing. It was creamy and rich. It tasted almost better than a reeses peanut butter cup. Another one of my friends had the Coconut Porter and that was amazing too. The coconut flavor was very pronounced but not over done. It was perfect.
I highly recommend stopping at Dangerous Man. Just be prepared, it may be packed, but that’s when you know the beer is on point.

We tried both the chocolate milk stout and peanut butter porter. Both were great but the peanut butter porter was definitely the star of the show. I have tried a few peanut butter porters in the past and this is for sure the best one that I have ever had! I was a little bummed out that they do not offer flights. There were so many beers to choose from and I wished I could try more.
We were here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was not too crowded. We were able to grab a table without any trouble. However, it would have been awesome if there was outdoor seating so we can enjoy the nice weather as well with our beers!

Love coming here after a nice dinner of fish and chips from a block away. The place is a bit crowded but it’s not surprising with $ 3 – 5 beers. My all time favorite is still the PB porter and every once in a while they’ll have it on nitro which makes it even more smooth and bubbly. The last few times I’ve visit DM they switched up the menu. They do have non alcoholic beverages but don’t be lame and just drink the damn beer, it’s not dangerous, seriously.
*tip* you need to start a tab if you are charging your card for less than $ 5. BRING CASH!

Peanut. Butter. Porter.
Only reason you need to go to Dangerous Man! But then you mix it with their Milk Stout & make a Reese’s beer… Takes it to a whole new level! The atmosphere is cool, great neighborhood, and the staff is friendly and great! They also have a volunteer squad so sign up on their website to get invites to volunteer events with other local craft beer lovers.

Love this place :) Get the peanut butter porter (as others have mentioned) or the coconut chocolate milk stout. Or any beer because everything rocks here. The ambiance reminds me of a coffee shop and it’s just a fun place to hangout. The have a lot of food trucks that swing by here too which is always fun to check out.

Great beer, cozy atmosphere, good tunes, awesome prices. I loved the coconut stout and Scottish ale. The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is the limited seating.

Three words: peanut butter porter.
Nice atmosphere with helpful staff. Plenty of micro environments here to meet your varying beer drinking needs. Some groups were playing board games while couples got cozy and loners had their beer with a book. Something for everyone.

Fun Nordeast Tap Room with a relaxed and cozy atmosphere. The people working the bar are friendly and helpful. Beer is good as well, I’d recommend the Pilsner if you’re not into bitter beers or the Milk Chocolate Stout if you like something darker. Tulips are $ 3 and pints are $ 5 — Great value for grabbing a drink in Minneapolis.
Next time I’ll have to try bringing some local food with as they recommend bringing your own!

Wisconsin, I hate to do this, but I think Dangerous Man might be my all-​time favorite brewery. Their chocolate milk stout is a beer that I couldn’t stop thinking about after trying. It’s so ridiculously tasty — smooth, flavorful, and no aftertaste. I’m usually a wheat and fruit beer drinker, but I would do a lot of things to get my hands on this beer.
I’ve had the benefit of going with a few friends on each visit, which is perfect for trying their lineup. Every single brew I’ve tasted has been delicious. After the chocolate milk stout the Scottish ale is probably my next favorite, but I’ve truly enjoyed literally every beer I’ve sampled — even their IPA. I’ve never, ever, ever liked an IPA until trying theirs — it had balance instead of being aggressively hoppy for hop’s sake.
As for sampling, you’ve got two options — $ 3 for a tulip and $ 5 for an imperial pint. I usually have a pint of the stout and a tulip of something else. Any combination is going to be a good deal.
Something that adds to the appeal is that you can only get their beer by visiting their super rad brewery and tap room. They do fill a limited number of growlers each day for purchase, but once they’re gone they’re gone — you can’t just buy one and ask them to fill it up with your choice of beer. I wasn’t aware of this when I last went, and slept on picking up a chocolate milk stout. I was able to snag a small jar of it, but on future trips I’ll be sure to buy a big jug straight off.
If you find yourself in the cities, make it a point to visit.
Beers I’ve enjoyed:
Chocolate Milk Stout
Coconut Milk Stout
Hazelnut Porter
House IPA
Imperial Golden Rose Ale
Peanut Butter Porter
Scottish Ale

I wish I could give this brewery five stars. The only thing they miss on is the set up of the inside. There are few tables and there’s little space to move around. I often find myself here because of the location of this brewery and then I remember that their beers are actually amazing.
Their beers are very unique and delicious especially if you love porters. I highly recommend getting the peanut butter porter and chocolate milk porter and mixing them together. The peanut butter porter is dark, rich and delicious, While the chocolate milk porter has a slight creamy flavor to it. It definitely satisfies my sweet tooth after just a few sips! Be warned though– you will leave feeling pretty bloated if you manage to finish an entire porter– totally worth it.
They don’t serve any food here but in the warmer months food trucks line the streets outside offering many satisfying options to pair with your beer. There are various board games and decks of cards to choose from if you’re feeling like challenging your friends to some euchre.
It’s a really hip place to hang out and fits in with the overall NE Minneapolis vibe. Definitely worth stopping in for at least one!

While there seems to be a taproom on just about every corner in NE these days, Dangerous Man continues to be one of my favorites. Based upon the consistent crowds and the occasional queue to get in during peak times, it appears there are many others that share this sentiment.
As with any brewery, the beer is the draw, and Dangerous Man usually knocks it out of the park. The oft-​mentioned Milk Stout and PB Porter live up to the hype, they usually hit the mark with their Belgians and I haven’t come across anything else that I haven’t enjoyed among the ever-​rotating tap list. Paired with a comfortable taproom setting, amicable beertenders and the new growler shop, Dangerous Man is a staple of the Twin Cities brewing scene.

There’s definitely a hip NE vibe in here, and I love it! Beautiful taproom with a warm/​rustic/​natural feel.
That Peanut Butter Porter tho. Omggggg. If you could marry a beer… It’s like a liquid PB cup. With alcohol. Maybe it’s the novelty, since I’ve never tasted a peanut butter beer before, but I think that’s kind of the point. Inventiveness and all that.
The big downside for me is the current limited growler sales. Ordinarily, if I’m going to a brewery/​taproom, it’s for a flight or a pint and to bring home a growler and it’d be a real bummer to have your drink (s) and thereafter realize that there’s nothing available to bring home.
That being said, I’m working near there this week so I stopped in to pick up a growler when I finished up (around 5:30) and it looked like there were plenty left for the day. So maybe the concern over it is just my anxiety chiming in.

This place is a madhouse — so many people just standing around drinking beer. You will more than likely wait to get in as every time i go driving by there is a line. The doorman is friendly and decent. Once you get inside you have to again wait in line for your beer. The prices are decent and the beer is well made. They had peanut butter porter nitro – delicious – and if you mix it with some of the chocolate stout it is like a peanut butter cup. I had the caraway brown too. smooth and caramel-​like. This place puts out great beer no doubt i like to chillax and relax with my beer not stand around. Hence I just cannot give it five stars for that reason.

Peanut Butter Porter… need I say more. This is by far my favorite brewery within the twin cities. The beer is ALWAYS amazing, the staff is really friendly and know everything there is about beer, taproom vibes is always enjoyable and they are in a great location (plenty other breweries within a walking distance to make it into a beer crawl day, if you have the will power to pull yourself away from the great tasting beer). The staples (beer) are usually always around (and you can’t go wrong getting any of them), but they are always brewing something special. I would suggest trying everything that appears new to you on that bar menu, your taste buds will be very happy that you did. you can thank me later.
If you haven’t dropped by yet, you should make it your business to do so.

Best all around brewery I visited while in the cities! Great beer, great atmosphere and great service. I recommend trying the Peanut Butter Porter and the Chocolate Milk Stout though everything I tasted was above average. Well done Dangerous Man! I will visit again the next time I am in town.

A group of eight of us visited on a Thursday night for some beer/​ales. We arrived around 8:30 pm — the place was packed!
I wanted to try out a sampler of beers — but unfortunately Dangerous Man does not offer flights of beer.
I had two beers — the Imperial Pumpkin Ale and the House IPA:
Imperial Pumpkin Ale (8.2% ABV)
House IPA (6.7% ABV)
The Imperial Pumpkin Ale was your typical spiced Pumpkin Ale, but well balanced — a bit high for a pumpkin Ale at 8.2% ABV — one would think it was a Pumpkin IPA!
The House IPA was damn tasty! Piney, resiny, hoppy! Delightful! Yummy!!!
The only two things I will ding them on:
— No option for flights of beers
— Music was a bit to loud — we were yelling at each other at times to be heard
Beer was excellent! Definitely would come back here again next time I visit Minneapolis!

My personal favorite MPLS brewery. Delicious, legendary chocolate milk stout. Make it even better by doing a half n half– mix it with the peanut butter stout and you have a peanut butter cup.
Also has regular Kombucha on tap that’s always interesting.
Hungry? Stop by The Anchor for fish n chips to bring in and eat with your beer.

Peanut Butter Porter for the win.
With the masses of people here now, it’s getting pretty loud inside, so it’s no longer just a chill place to play board games on the busy nights.
I thought it was kind of fun when they had the 20 oz beers, but can’t blame them for going the traditional route with pint and tulip beers.
The only downside is that they don’t have food trucks, but you can easily order food to be delivered, or walk down the street for some good fish and chips.

Muy buen lugar, con buenas opciones de cervezas. La atención es buena, aunque les hace falta servir comida, pero el food truck afuera del negocio ofrece buenas opciones. Excelente lugar para compartir una buena velada con los amigos y los precios no son muy altos.

I hate hate hate this place. It’s not a dive, it’s not hipster, it is douchey. As douchey as douchey can be. Hotdish wanted to bring his son here to celebrate his 21^st birthday. Granted, our group consisted of Hotdish’s father, Hotdish, Hotdish’s son and me, and none of us fit the target demo, except Hotdish who can fit in anywhere, so it shouldn’t be shocking to me that every one of us was extremely uncomfortable.
I felt like I’d stumbled into a frat party circa 1992. I was faaaaaar too old to be with this crowd and that could not have been made more clear. Points off for exclusivity. My family used to own a very popular bar/​restaurant. I know that bars can choose to make everyone feel welcome or they can choose to make the middle-​aged and outlliers feel exactly like what they are. Dangerous Man chose the latter route. Good for them. Keep the people with the real money out.
I can’t speak to the beer. I famously have horrible taste in beer, and i was the designated driver anyway. So i asked Hotdish to grab me a soda. He returned with a glass of Sour Mix.
Seriously.
I know what sour mix is. I tended bar for years. We used to dare each other to drink that crap straight when it was slow. More points off for not having actual soda for those of us who aren’t drinking.
I stepped outside to smoke. There was no game on when i left. The Olympics aren’t on yet. Unironic chants of «USA! USA! USA!» came from inside. Points off for misguided patriotism.
If this is your crowd, there you go. Heaven. Personally, i left this vibe happily back in college. I’ll meet you at the grown up bars.

I had an absolutely great time here as I was here locally on a business trip.
The atmosphere was chill and relaxing and everyone had a beer in their hand and were carrying some great conversations. The beers were AMAZING.
Did someone say «chocolate milk stout?» YES PLEASE!!!
I am just confused, coming from San Francisco, how you can charge only $ 3 for your fine crafted brews.

They don’t distribute and thus you MUST go to their tap room. And heck, it’s definitely worth checking out. They have a ton of options. Their ledges above your head are lined with other breweries’ growlers. They have some games. They have a variety of seating options.
When it gets busy, there is a line out the door. You should definitely check it out. They don’t have fights… which is sad, but we made our own. They make delicious beer and usually have a food truck sitting outside also. Great atmosphere.
Beers we tried:
–peanut butter porter
–chocolate milk stout
–golden rose ale
–nitro cream ale
ALL super delicious and actually went really well together. We got the tulips of each and split them between two people. (We’d already been at Bauhaus that morning).

I always try to find an excuse to head to Dangerous Man hang out in their casual, fun space and sip some good craft beers! I have come on busy late nights and recently during a slower afternoon. When we came at night it was packed but we didn’t mind sharing a table with other patrons. This time it was still pretty busy but we were able to find a spot on the couches.
The inside is fairly small and has a relaxed and cool vibe to it. Not trying too hard or too forced. It was very comfortable and has a designed spot for ordering drinks at the bar.
It is pretty simple that all beers are same price and the only difference in pricing is based on ounces. They only had one IPA so I went with that called the Green Bullet IPA and thought it was a good drink to sip on but would have preferred it be a bit more hoppy. I had tried the Peanut Butter Porter and liked it but would recommend getting a smaller glass as I wouldn’t have been able to drink a whole 16 ounces.
I love the chill vibe Dangerous Man has and their nice variety of beers they offer. The staff was all very friendly as well. This is my kind of place!
Note: $ 10 minimum on debit/​credit cards

Sometimes you stumble upon the best things when you least expect them.
After our tour of Norseman, we were looking for some fun in the vicinity. Scott pointed us to Dangerous Man and for that we are thankful.
Housed in an old bank, Dangerous Man is a brewery and tap room all in one. They don’t serve food, but they coordinate with food trucks, so there’s usually something outside if you’re feeling peckish.
We arrived on the early side of Friday happy hour, so getting seats at the bar was no trouble. Not fan of darker beers, I got two tulips — cream ale and kolsch. The manfriend went with the peanut butter porter and is still waxing poetic (over a week later) about how delicious it was. While it isn’t my style of beer, I will say that on smell alone it had me sold.
If you haven’t discovered Dangerous Man yet, you need to get over there. They’re brewing great things. Now, they just need to start distributing closer to our home. ;-)

We were looking forward to this stop during our brewery tour, and it did not disappoint. All of the beers sounded delicious and we tried the Chocolate Milk Stout, the Peanut Butter Porter, and the Imperial Golden rose ale. Our least favorite was the imperial golden rose ale, but mostly because the other two were so delicious. The chocolate milk stout had a great flavor and one of the better chocolate milk stouts I’ve had. However the Peanut Butter Porter was hands down one of the most delicious beers I’ve ever had. Yes, it’s very weird for a beer, but the flavor was amazing, it didn’t have an off tasting peanut butter artificial flavor which I was afraid of, it was just a beer that had this peanut butter flavor that didn’t detract from the beer.
A very cool space, I also enjoyed the fact that several tables were playing board games like guess who and sorry — I would definitely visit again!
