12 Beers of Christmas, Minneapolis

The annual 12 Beers of Christmas guards participants against winter's chill with one simple activity: a pub crawl. This festive celebration beats a path to an ever-expanding list of Central Minneapolis bars, including The Pourhouse, Whisky Park, and Cowboy Jack's. Each venue commemorates the event with waived cover charges and discounts on the 12 eponymous brews, a selection of national and local beers. Activities such as photo opportunities with a Santa and a chance for guests to deliver their own reindeer calves help spread holiday cheer throughout the night. 12 Beers of Christmas also helps guests celebrate with themed costumes ranging from cheeky elf outfits to Christmas-tree-patterned pajamas.
