Default August Schell Brewing Co brewery tour ride

http://www.schellsbrewery.com/contact.php

I just called them, and they say it's first come first served. I mapped out the drive from my house, and it will take almost 2 hours to get there.

Saturday is my day. With that being said, I know some of us have expressed an interest in taking the drive and touring the brewery. If you're up for it, I suggest we get together early for this trip. The museum there opens at 11am, and they start putting wristbands on people in line for the first tour at noon. Tours last an hour.

If we leave at 9am, we can make it by 11. That might not guarantee us the tour at noon, though. The other option is to leave at 10am, get there into New Ulm for lunch, then try to get in on another tour later that day. They say Saturday's are the most popular tour day.

Let me know if you guys are interested and what you think.

haha well itg's not that i like drag racing, but i am wanting to check out the ms3's these guys have... since i've started modding mine slightly, i really wanna go to meet the guys and check out the cars.

but kasey is off that day too, which is not common, so the brewery may be a good thing to do.

BTW, I was thinking of driving down 35 to Hwy 60 at Faribault and taking that towards Mankato. I've driven it before, and it's a pretty scenic road with lots of lakes, small towns, and some hills.
