Falling Knife Brewing Company started in the music venues of the Twin Cities. Recognizing a shared love of music, basketball, and of course, beer, Andy, Tom, and Dan moved from serious conversations amongst friends to a brewery-in-planning in the summer of 2017. After looking at several locations, the ownership team fell in love with the Mid-City neighborhood. Construction on the new space started in late 2018, and we opened our doors in summer 2019.
Falling Knife is a production brewery that features a 20-barrel brewhouse producing incredible beers, and a full-service 149-person taproom. We currently service select keg accounts with packaged beer shortly forthcoming.
