Come celebrate Art-a-Whirl 2015 with Indeed Brewing Company!
Get Whirly! Same big bash, big new name. Indeed Brewing Company presents WHIRLYGIG 2015. Whirlygig is our third annual spring celebration, and it’s going down during the Northeast Arts District’s biggest weekend of the year! Our brewery blow-out kicks off Friday May 15 through Sunday May 17. Fuel your artistic adventures all weekend long with three days of live music presented by First Avenue, food trucks, and plenty of your favorite Indeed brews.
New this year on Sunday May 17, MN Brewery Running is kicking off the festivities with a fun 5K, and Get Knit will be getting crafty with a DIY whirlygig station. Tap Minneapolis will provide free clean water filling stations throughout the weekend, and Eureka will be on hand to help us make Whirlygig 2015 a zero-waste event! Food will be provided throughout the weekend by Gastrotruck, El Taco Riendo, Red River Kitchen, Natedogs, Simply Steve’s, and Little G’s Pizzeria.
