Local Craft Brewers Will Have Limited-edition MN Pint Day Pint Glasses Available on Black Friday Weekend

CRAFT BEER ENTHUSIASTS CAN CELEBRATE SMALL BREWERY SUNDAY WITH LIMITED-EDITION 2022 MN PINT DAY GLASSWARE

MN Pint Day pint glasses available at 40+ breweries and brewpubs starting Black Friday weekend

On November 27, in honor of Small Brewery Sunday and Black Friday weekend, craft beer lovers are invited to visit more than 40 Minnesota craft breweries and brewpubs around the state to celebrate the 2022 Minnesota Pint Day and purchase limited-edition MN Pint Day pint glasses.

MN Pint Day was created by the Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild (MNCBG), the state’s nonprofit association for craft breweries and brewpubs. The day, and the exclusive glassware, is designed to give MN craft beer fans a fun excuse to grab some friends, share a pint, and support their favorite breweries this holiday season.

“When craft beer enthusiasts gather and purchase beer, merchandise, or gift cards over the holidays, it has a huge impact for these small businesses and their communities,” says MNCBG Executive Director Jess Talley. “MN Pint Day is a great way to celebrate Small Brewery Sunday as well as to encourage fans to remember to buy local this holiday season.”

Individual businesses will decide how to celebrate MN Pint Day, what promotions to offer with their pint glasses, and how long to offer those promotions. Pint glasses can only be found at participating breweries and brewpubs while supplies last.

This year’s pint glass design was done by Marcus Paulsen of Lupulin Brewing and Big MP Design. Marcus is the recipient of numerous awards, including Best Art & Design at the MNCBG’s MN Brewer’s Cup in 2019 and 2021.

Visit the website to see the growing list of participating breweries, glassware artwork, and, later this month, an interactive map highlighting promotions.

Founded in 2000, the Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild is a not-for-profit organization comprise of more than 175+ Minnesota brewery and brewpub members. The Guild showcases the talent of Minnesota’s craft brewers and promotes Minnesota’s brewing industry by sponsoring festivals and special events, including the MN Brewers Cup, the State Fair’s Brewed in Minnesota exhibit, All Pints North, and Autumn Brew Review. The Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild’s mission is to promote, protect, and grow a robust Minnesota craft brewing industry by building a healthy beer culture and community that allows for independent brewers, industry stakeholders, and craft beer fans to thrive.
