Elm Creek Brewing Co.
Microbrewery in Champlin, Minnesota, United States 🇺🇸
When Mitch called his dad Wade in the fall of 2019 with the idea that their hometown needed a brewery, he could only nod in agreement - and then laughed the idea off.
But they never let it go away entirely, after countless hours of researching, studying and rolling up their sleeves, the Carlson’s are proud to bring Elm Creek Brewing Co. to their beloved Champlin, friends and neighbors.

Aromas are citrus, straw, onion, little resin and a hint of MJ. Flavors are similar to nose. MJ comes out a bit more. Great balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. I don't know how West Coast it is but it's pretty tasty.
