Skaalvenn Distillery

Skaalvenn Distillery Our goal is to make the finest spirits in Minnesota--at a price everyone can afford. Skål Venn! / 10-19-2020 - Our Japanese inspired cocktail bar is now open.

Please try to make a reservation before stopping in--we naturally have extremely limited seating, and we would hate to turn you away due to being at capacity. Our spirits are distributed to over 400 locations across Minnesota. If your local store does not carry the product you want, please ask them--they'll typically gladly start carrying it for you.

Daiquiriville! , and only until 6pm on Friday and Saturday nights!

It's hot out, and the best cure for that is a slushy daiquiri made to order with -350°F liquid nitrogen--made to order--for only $12

Why liquid nitrogen? By using something so ridiculously cold it makes ice freeze into ultra small crystals that are impossible to replicate with a blender or any other method. Think Dip'n Dots, but as a slushy, and we've got 4 flavors available right now.

They're available until 6pm because we're making them to order and we can't keep up with them during the evening rush--Skaalvenn Distillery is a craft cocktail bar NOT a tap cocktail bar.

Happy Syttende Mai, Norway’s Independence Day! Here’s our aquavit in the Lofoten islands of 🇳🇴 back in July 2024 and Tyson doing some behind the scenes work. Our favorite way to drink aquavit at home is in a mule, which we call The Fjord Horse. (In our cocktail bar at Skaalvenn, we jazz it up with housemade ginger beer,
lingonberry + hibiscus ice, garnished with candied ginger.) The DIY home version comes together with just 3 ingredients for a zesty and easy refreshment.

Have you tried Skaalvenn Yuzu Gin? It’s our modern take on a classic spirit—smooth, bright, and versatile. UnYUZUally approachable + sure to change the minds of gin skeptics 😉✨

Cocktail pictured: Negroni. Super easy to make with 1:1:1 (equal parts) gin, campari, sweet vermouth. Orange peel is optional.

Years ago we said we didn't like gin had no plans of making it 🤭 Then, we traveled to Japan, discovered Japanese yuzu and yuzu gins. It changed our minds (and palates) and we wanted to put our twist on a classic spirit. Our love of yuzu shines through in our gin—perfect for G&Ts, Negroni, and more. #ゆず

Happy Easter from Skaalvenn Distillery!

A little context: We bought the "Easter 🐇" costume to offer some fun photo booth opportunities in the bar...but then Tyson had a little dip in his health and we decided it wasn't the greatest idea to be in a hot costume and in close proximity to a lot of people. Sooo, next year?

But, now that we have all the equipment for a photo booth, who thinks we should build an actual one?

Happy Easter everyone!

April is National Donate Life Month, so we're once again offering 10% off for organ donors at Skaalvenn Distillery's cocktail bar.

Advocating for organ donation something that's pretty important to all of us here as 10 months ago Tyson's life was saved because a real hero made the choice to donate life.

So, if you're a registered donor, all month long you get to enjoy 10% off bottles, cocktails, and food.

PLUS, we're even stacking it on top of our Thursday 20% off happy hour. Why so much? Because thank you so much!

Cheers, friends!

Cambodian New Year is April 16, 17, and 18 at Skaalvenn Distillery! One of the underrepresented Asian groups in Minnesota are the Cambodians/Khmer--we've got our own new year which means we get to celebrate THREE TIMES!

Mary's the daughter of 🇰🇭 immigrants who fled the Khmer Rouge in the late 70s and settled in MN. Luke actually lived there for 17 years. We've even had customers recognize him from being behind the bar in Cambodia!

Come try some new flavors in cocktails, new foods, and maybe Mary and Luke will teach you a few words or phrases. P.S. Luke is really good at the FUN phrases 😏

You probably won't celebrate Cambodian New Year at any bar other than Skaalvenn. No need to buy a plane ticket to taste the world--just make a reservation with us!

The real people who run Skaalvenn.

Charlie, Chase, Dave, Luke, Max, and Trygve.

Give them a round of applause for keeping the company going through all Tyson's health crap over the last couple years--plus the day to day stuff that is already not easy to do. They deserve every bit of recognition!

As the owner, it's not easy being gone, but it really isn't easy stepping up and taking on the immense challenge of running the ship while the captain is away. These guys are beyond amazing!

Thank you for running this company and saying "I'll help out" instead of "not my job." You're all the best of the best. Could not ask for any better of a crew and we love you all!

And thank you to our customers who stop in to see this crew every weekend! It's a lot of fun to be working with your friends, making new friends, and seeing old friends every night. We love you all, too!

-Tyson and Mary
