ESPN praises South Dakota brewery for Minnesota Vikings themed beer

Remedy Brewing Company in South Dakota has been getting a lot of praise for their Skolberry beer, which was crafted with the Minnesota Vikings in mind.

Beer sure has evolved over the years. The days of going to the grocery store and trying to choose which of the major brands to enjoy while watching a Minnesota Vikings game or socializing with friends feels like it was decades ago.

These days, it’s all about the microbrews and craft beers. Smaller-scale manufacturers can make beers with so many different flavor profiles, ingredients, and alcohol content that many individuals can go out searching for their favorites while hitting up the breweries. Plus, themed beers can be created based on popular culture.

One such brewery that has been getting a lot of attention recently is the Remedy Brewing Company in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Their beer based on the Minnesota Vikings caught the eye (and tastebuds) of ESPN, who shared some information on their Skolberry offering.

According to the official website of Remedy Brewery, each batch of Skolberry is made with “200 pounds of organic blueberry puree make this crushable wheat ale a dank purple pour with a strong blueberry nose and a cleanly tart finish.”

ESPN shares that the three owners of the brewery are big fans of NFL franchise (including president and CEO, Matthew Hastad) and wanted to create something while the team was enjoying their 2017 playoff run. After the brew turned out to be popular, it stayed on the menu.

It is great to see a beverage based on the Minnesota Vikings be as popular as Skolberry has become for the Remedy Brewing Company in South Dakota. If you’re of legal age and enjoy having alcoholic beverages, it is highly recommended to stop in to try this berry craft brew in Sioux Falls!
