R-E-S-P-E-C-T (Code of Conduct)
Let’s get this straight right off the bat. These principles are essential to our mission.
We expect that EVERYONE who comes to Imminent participates in this “social contract”, including employees, owners, vendors, and customers — anyone who comes in! We also believe that when people make mistakes, we all have the ability to make things right.
We strive to maintain a space in which all humans are treated with respect and dignity, regardless of their race, color, ancestry, national origin and/or citizenship, age, religion, physical or mental disability status, military status, gender, sex, pregnancy status, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, transgender status, genetic information or marital status. Our working environment is based on mutual trust and the absence of intimidation, oppression and exploitation.
Harassment is totally uncool and totally unwelcome! Harassment includes verbal and/or physical conduct, direct or indirect actions that are unwelcome or that make any individual uncomfortable. It’s not about intent — it’s about the impact!
Rules for Humans
Follow the Platinum Rule: Treat others how they want to be treated. Including beertenders! Our team members are THE most important element of this company. It is critical that they be able to work in a safe, comfortable atmosphere.
We are not your “dear,” “hon,” or “sweetheart.” Please do not use pet names to address beertenders. Wondering why? Check out this link for some hints… in an effort of solidarity, we ask that ALL customers refrain from using these phrases. Thank you!
Humans must maintain control of themselves at all times (e.g., no dancing on the tables…)
Humans must get along with other people (and be nice to dogs).
Aggression will not be tolerated.
Harassment and hate speech have no place in our community.
Be conscientious of others
This is a family-friendly place!
Keep thy hands to thyself.
Please don’t stand in aisle-ways or block folks from moving freely through the space.
If it’s not clear: Don’t be a creep!
We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone (especially anyone who’s not following these rules or refuses to participate in this code of conduct).

We are proud to be WeVow members. Help us by being an ally! If you witness or experience inappropriate behavior, please let us know right away, or use this link to report it so we can resolve the issue:

Brew Dog of the Month
Our sincerest gratitude to all who have served in the Armed Forces...and to organizations like Believet who serve those who have served!
wilson
Wilson joined the Believet program as a puppy in November 2022. Being a Standard Poodle, Wilson entered the program looking to be paired with a veteran who is allergic to dogs. Wilson spent the last year learning many skills: obedience, fetching, nightmare interruption, and bracing for stabilization.
This past October, Wilson got to meet his veteran. They’ve spent the past four weeks training together. They’ve trained in many public spaces: Menards, Target, Cub Foods and many small shops in downtown Northfield. Wilson and his Veteran will graduate the Believet service dog program this month and will fly back to their home in North Carolina.
beers on tap
Dragon Squirrel juicy IPA
6.0% ABV - 37 IBU - 5 SRM
refreshing citrus and stone fruit
This mythical IPA is bursting with citrus and stone fruit flavors from loads of Citra, Simcoe and Mosaic hops, yet has very low bitterness. Just like the Dragon Squirrels of yore, it has all the big, flavorful hop character you could want crammed into an approachable and really quite harmless package.
Gateway Cream Ale
5.1% ABV - 15 IBU - 4 SRM
Light, easy drinking, gluten reduced ale with a smidge of sweetness. When someone “just wants a beer” this is what they’re looking for. *Gluten Reduced
stefantastico italian pilsner
5.1% ABV - 30 IBU - 3 SRM
Floral, Herbal, Citrus
pints for pride pale ale
5.6% ABV - 36 IBU - 5 SRM
Bawk, balk, bock
6% ABV - 20 IBU - 17 SRM
malty - smooth - toffee
I say, I say, this here Bock, it’s a beer, son! It ain’t no chicken talkin, and just cause I’m talkin’ don’t make me a chicken. I’m a roo–I say–I’m a rooster! It ain't about baseball pitchin no how neither! And it certainly don’t have nothin’ to do with no old, dead musical composers! No sir! You’re more mixed up than a feather in a whirlwind! Now pay attention, ‘cause I’m not just talkin’ to hear my head roar! I say, this here Bock is a delicious, smooth and malty lager. It’s about as fine a beer as you’ll find this side of the Mississippi, or on the other side for that matter. That’s right, a BEER. That’s what I’ve been–I say, that’s what I’ve been tellin’ you, son! It’s a BOCK!
Raven’s nest stout
5.4% ABV - 24 IBU - 33 SRM
Named for the dark colored plumage of Poe’s bipedaled muse (and a cool new cafe in town), this dark delight is a bright spot among the midnight dreary of Winter. Deep and roasty with a lovely hit of bitterness at the end, it’ll leave you wanting (never)more! Pairs well with crepes.
off leash vienna lager
5.5% ABV - 20 IBU - 9 SRM
A light copper colored lager with a wonderful toasty malt character and light floral hops.
Cannon river pale ale
5.3% ABV - 35IBU - 8 SRM
malt balances pine and citrus
This pale ale has wonderful grapefruit and pine aromas, citrus flavors on the tongue and lingering bitterness balanced by the malt bill with a dry finish at the end. Some of the hops used came from our friends at Civil Sass Hops in Chatfield, MN!
Sure do! Brown ale
5.5% ABV - 20 IBU - 21 SRM
"Do you guys have a Brown Ale?" "Sure Do!" Is this new brew completely scrumptious? Sure is! With notes of toffee and a light roastiness, this one goes down smooth! Wanna give 'er a try? "Sure Do" is the proper response to that, obviously!
Family reserve baltic porter
9.3% ABV - 24 IBU - 27 SRM
lights out dark lager
5% ABV - 26 IBU - 22 SRM
Fred the beer hazy ipa
6.7% ABV - 30 IBU - 4 SRM
A smooth, refreshing, tropical hazy with a citrus twist.
After playing music at our brewery for six years and regularly pleading for a “hazy” or “east coast” IPA, we’ve finally given in to the appeals from the members of a band named for Fred. We give you, “Fred the Beer!” Much like their tunes, this IPA is refreshing, juicy and something you can groove to any day or night. And much like the band members themselves, it is not transparent. That is, you cannot see through it. There are no invisible band members in Fred the Bear (that we know of). We hope you enjoy this fresh, citrusy, and most definitely hazy IPA!
quick & the red ipa
6.7% ABV - 54 IBU - 14 SRM
West Coast Red IPA, this hop-forward creation couldn’t wait to get into your glass! Caramel malt sweetness yields to a bouquet of floral, piney, and citrus aromas.
heywood helles
4.8% ABV - 19 IBU - 3 SRM
A malty, well-rounded light lager with a soft finish
zombie pom sour
5.1% ABV - 4 IBU - 5 SRM
Lip-smacking tart cranberry meets sweeter pomegranate
esperanza sour
5.1% ABV - 4 IBU - 5 SRM
Strawberry aroma gives way to earthy, tart, hard candy. (Strawberry and Prickly Pear Sour)
hard Seltzer
5% ABV - 0 IBU
Light and refreshing seltzer infused with rotating flavors! *Gluten Reduced
Currently Mango Lemonade Flavor.
