🍺 Brewery planned for former Minnehaha Ave bike shop

A new brewery — and then some — is in the works on the corner of 45th and Minnehaha.

Veteran brewery operators Qiuxia and Kevin Welch, who founded Boom Island Brewing in 2011, have purchased the former One on One Bike Shop and begun building it out into a combination brewery, coffee shop, and possible bike shop called Mixed Culture Brewing. If all goes to plan, they hope to be open later this year.

Background

Qiuxia and Kevin were both professional French horn players when they met in 2000 at a horn conference in China. They soon married and moved to Minneapolis, where Qiuxia was attending graduate school.
