St. Paul and Alcohol are as compatible as cheese and wine - truly, a match unparalleled. Tracing back to the early history when the renowned bootlegger “Pig’s Eye Parrant” catered to off-duty soldiers from Fort Snelling, the tradition of drinking has become a crucial part of this city’s identity. This culture unfolds during this three-hour pub crawl of our capital city.
Embark on this walking tour, during which you will explore four pubs and concurrently familiarize yourself with the city’s rich past. One of the most engaging ways to learn about a city is via its pubs, and that’s exactly what you’ll be doing, weaving your way through the tale of St. Paul’s heritage.
