Bobbing Bobber Brewing Company

Bobbing Bobber Brewing Company; Hutchinson, MN

Fishing Buddies Sour and Bobber Lite Japanese Lager 

On our way back from a Christmas party in our old Savage neighborhood, we took a west then north route, allowing us to drop in on Bobbing Bobber Brewing Company, or 3BC.

I love this Yelp review of the space, "The first thing we all noticed was the decor. They are very committed to their bobber/fishing theme which was very well done."  That is an understatement.

3BC was hosting a Christmas shopping event and there was a Vikings game on, so we arrived to a fairly decent sized crowd.  With the tap room connected to the sitting area (tables are lowered docks), there was plenty of room and quite a buzz.  Ambiance gets a 3.

The brewery has fairly large selection, with a wide variety of flavors, somewhat favoring darker beers.  I had the Bobber Lite Japanese Lager,  and Tim had the Fishing Buddies Sour.  He rated it 4.25 out of 5 in his Untapped App.  And we shared the Wanna Shake Your Tree Creame Ale.  Tim gave that one a 3.5 out of 5.  Selection gets a 3.

While none of the individual beers have branding other than the naming, they do have quite a few versions of their company logo.  They had a ton of t-shirts and hats and they charged $2 for stickers.  Website is fairly robust.  Their Instagram site is fairly active with a basic visual design strategy.  Branding gets a 2 only because I think there is a gold mine in branding the beers more individually.

Most pints were $6, with some stouts or IPAs at $7. Price gets a 3.  3BC is a great option for those who call Hutchinson home, or for those that want to venture out west of the Twin Cities (but don't drink and drive 😉).
