About Hoppy Girl Brewing
Hoppy Girl Brewing is a brewery and taproom on Bridge Avenue in Wabasha. It sits in the back alley of a bed and breakfast, in a garage the owners turned into a full brewing operation. The business also trades as Turning Waters Back Alley Brewing Co.
Head brewer Ford Pearson makes the beer on site. Taps rotate each weekend, so the line-up changes from visit to visit. Guest taps pour craft beer from local and national breweries.
The fridge adds cans and bottles, including cider, non-alcoholic beer, kombucha and soda. Pep's Drafthaus Pizza is served at the taproom, and Cedar Crest Ice Cream is on hand for dessert. Ask for a scoop in one of the stouts.
Most local restaurants are close by, and several deliver to the taproom. The entrance, parking lot and restroom are all wheelchair accessible.
