Dangerous Man Brewing Company is a microbrewery previously located in the Sheridan neighborhood of Northeast Minneapolis.[1][2]
After closing its taproom in 2023, Dangerous Man currently runs a brewing facility in Maple Lake, Minnesota, from which it distributes products to bars and liquor stores.[3]
In March of 2025, Dangerous Man announced they would wind-down operations, distributing their final beer, the Last Call IIPA on March 25.[4]
Five months after their closure, Dangerous Man announced they would be re-opening under new ownership while retaining founder, Rob Miller.[5]
Dangerous Man Brewing Company was founded by Rob Miller, a longtime homebrewer who had been considering opening a brewery for some time. After changes in Minnesota state law permitted brewery taprooms (and after additional changes in Minneapolis law allowed him to open a brewery across the street from a church) he located his brewery in a turn-of-the-twentieth-century building which was originally a bank.[6] The brewery opened on January 25, 2013.[7]
Distribution
Dangerous Man did not distribute their beer until 2023, when they opened a production facility in Maple Lake, Minnesota.[8]
In April 2015, Dangerous Man previously expanded their operation into an adjacent building to open a dedicated counter for growler and merchandise sales. The expansion was completed in November 2015, doubling the overall footprint of the brewery and triple their brewing capacity.[9][10]
