[PHOTO GALLERY] Keg and Case turns brewery into Minnesota-centric market
Within the walls of the historic Schmidt Brewery, Keg and Case West Seventh Market contains a myriad of local vendors from the Twin Cities. Within the former “keg house,” there are now 23 shopping and tasting destinations. On the second floor, one can see the entire layout of the 33,000 square foot building. The destination, 11 years in the making, opened earlier this fall in September.
