Episode #144 Bent Brewstillery

\n

In today's episode we talk about Bent Brewstillery in Roseville, MN

\n

We taste several options at their taproom

\n

Finally, we discuss the history of Bent (and a lot of really old monetary systems)

\n

The law in the state of MN (Section 340A.22) that governs micro distilleries is a bit circular, and has been hard to navigate for many new distilleries, as shown in this post from The Growler. The law forces only one sale per person per day on site, and limits the size of the bottle to 375 ml for on site sales. It's more complicated than that, but that's a decent start to the confusing cycle that has been created.

\n

We here at Travel by Proxy want all of you to know about the crazy ways that currency used to be created and used, and want you to start with the Wikipedia entry on the Halfpenny, aka the Ha'penny, and for those of you wondering about the monetary system in The Name of the Wind, see the Kingkiller Wiki entry on the common currencies of the lands.
