BlackStack isn’t just a brewery. It is a space that feels purpose-built for moments like this. Located in St. Paul’s Midway neighborhood, the taproom sits inside the historic American Can Company building – a late-1800s industrial giant that once produced billions of cans before being reimagined into something entirely new. Today, that same space has been transformed into what the brewery calls an “industrial cathedral-meets-modern museum,” blending exposed brick, towering ceilings, and natural light into one of the most unique drinking environments in the Twin Cities. Oh, and a 190" TV to watch baseball. Reserve your spot to find out for yourself next Thursday! Founded in 2017, BlackStack Brewing is a family-run operation built on collaboration, creativity, and a commitment to quality. From hop-forward IPAs to lagers and fruited sours, their beer program has earned a devoted following across Minnesota, driven by a philosophy emphasizing “no shortcuts” and constant innovation. But what truly sets BlackStack apart, and what makes it such a natural fit for a Twins Daily event, is the atmosphere. This is not a place where you show up, grab a drink, and leave. It is a place where you settle in, socialize with your neighbors, and watch the Twins end our baseball drought with a win. It's a place built for gathering. So, let's do this! When the Minnesota Twins take on the Baltimore Orioles to kick off the 2026 season, we'll gather in a great space, cheer a first pitch, react with every big swing, and maybe even find some optimism for this new season. (Or at least find some good beer over which to commiserate.) And that’s exactly what Opening Day should be. A new season. A packed taproom. A community that cares about every pitch. Let's do this!

Baseball is back, and there’s no better way to celebrate opening day than surrounded by the Twins Daily community. Cold beer, great food, watching baseball with friends, and more – that is how we’re kicking off the 2026 season. The Twins Daily Social Club is heading back to BlackStack Brewing for another Opening Day watch party after the incredible turnout and atmosphere last year. Their team helped make it unforgettable, so teaming up again was an easy call. This year’s opener features a fascinating matchup as the Minnesota Twins take on the Baltimore Orioles: two talented clubs with plenty of star power and plenty to prove right out of the gate. Twins fans will be eager to see how the lineup looks from the very first pitch. All eyes will be on stars like Byron Buxton and Joe Ryan, while fans are excited to watch emerging talent such as Luke Keaschall continue to make his mark. Opening Day always brings a little extra electricity – the first crack of the bat, the first big defensive play, the first chance to imagine what the season could become. The Orioles bring plenty of excitement of their own. Dynamic young stars like Gunnar Henderson and Adley Rutschman have turned Baltimore into one of the most entertaining teams in baseball, making this season opener matchup one fans across the league are looking forward to. First pitch is scheduled for 2:05 pm on Thursday, March 26, and the Twins Daily Social Club will have the game on with a full house of fans ready to cheer. Our party kicks off an hour before first pitch, at 1:00 pm. The best part? You don’t need to buy a ticket. Simply RSVP using the Eventbrite link we will send out later this week, which will include full details for this year’s watch party. When you arrive and check in with the Twins Daily crew, we will get you set up with your first raffle ticket and everything else you need to enjoy a fantastic Opening Day with fellow fans. Stay tuned for more details about the event, the prizes we’ll be giving away, and everything else we have planned. Baseball is almost back. Let’s celebrate together.

The 2026 Twins Daily Winter Meltdown is officially sold out, and before the first pint is poured or the first interview begins, we want to take a moment to say thank you. Events like this do not happen without the support of incredible local partners, and this year’s Meltdown is no exception. From beer and burgers to gloves, gear, and giveaways, our sponsors help turn a cold January night into one of the most anticipated gatherings on the Twins calendar. Those lucky enough to have tickets can look forward to more than just great conversations and live interviews – you will have the chance to meet, chat with, and win prizes from our sponsors throughout the night. Whether it’s sipping BlackStack beer, digging into Smorgie’s menu, scoring Sotastick gear, ordering premium cuts from Big Woods Beef, or talking gloves with the expert Jim Lonetti at D&J Glove Repair, these partners are a huge part of what makes the Meltdown special. Learn a little bit more about each sponsor before you arrive at the Meltdown this Saturday. D&J Glove Repair is a Twin Cities hidden gem for anyone who believes a baseball glove is more than just leather. What started as a father-son garage project has grown into the only shop in the country devoted solely to restoring baseball gloves. From relacing and restitching to full restorations and vintage finds, their Minnehaha Avenue shop keeps gloves — and baseball tradition — alive one stitch at a time. Sotastick, purveyor of unique Minnesota-centric sports-themed apparel, is hopping on board for the festivities. Not only can you catch the Twins game live, but you can also snag some exclusive Sotastick merchandise. Plus, they are generously raffling off $50 gift cards during the watch party. It's a win-win for all Twins fans! As if baseball, beer, and prizes weren't enough, we're taking it up a notch with a raffle for gift cards to make a delicious purchase from Big Woods Beef (formerly Grote Beef). Picture this: succulent steaks, available throughout the game. It's a carnivore's dream come true. Smorgie’s is the official venue for the 2026 Twins Daily Winter Meltdown and a perfect downtown fit. Just steps from Target Field and Target Center, Smorgie’s is known for great food, strong drinks, and unbeatable value – open daily with the kitchen open late, daily 2-for-1s, everything under $12, and the award-winning Smorgie’s Smash burger. Its lively, laid-back atmosphere makes it an ideal spot to keep the TwinsFest energy going. BlackStack Brewing returns for a second straight year as the official beer sponsor of the Twins Daily Winter Meltdown. Ticket holders will receive two complimentary pints, with a choice between fan favorites Local 755 New England IPA and Slopes Pilsner. A Twin Cities staple since 2017, BlackStack is known for its intentionally crafted beer and wide range of options, including NA drinks, slushies, gluten-free seltzers, and THC beverages. With the event lining up perfectly with TwinsFest, the Winter Meltdown once again becomes the ultimate afterparty — a seamless extension of a full day of baseball, community, and fun. We are grateful to every sponsor who helps make this night possible and cannot wait to celebrate with everyone at Smorgie’s this weekend! View full article

The Twins Daily Winter Meltdown is back – and it is already a sellout. Tickets for this weekend’s event are officially gone, once again proving that Twins fans do not need baseball season to show up in full force. This year’s Meltdown will take over Smorgie’s in downtown Minneapolis, just steps from Target Field and Target Center, creating the perfect post–TwinsFest landing spot. With its late-night kitchen, daily drink specials, everything-under-$12 menu, and lively atmosphere, Smorgie’s checked every box for what a Meltdown venue should be, and fans responded accordingly. The 2026 lineup helped fuel the demand. Attendees will enjoy two complimentary pints courtesy of returning beer sponsor BlackStack Brewing, choosing between Local 755 New England IPA and Slopes Pilsner, plus an exclusive Winter Meltdown 2026 pint glass, door prize raffles, and five hours of premium Hot Stove hangouts. On stage, Aaron Gleeman and John Bonnes will host live interviews with a must-see guest list led by LaTroy Hawkins and Twins manager Derek Shelton, giving fans a rare, relaxed chance to hear directly from both a fan-favorite former Twin and the franchise’s new skipper. As always, the Meltdown is built by fans, for fans – and the Twins Daily Caretaker community once again showed up in a big way. With limited tickets and early access given to Caretakers, demand quickly outpaced availability, locking in another packed house. A huge thank you to everyone who grabbed a ticket, supports Twins Daily, and helps make the Winter Meltdown one of the most anticipated fan events of the offseason. January 24 can’t get here soon enough! View full article

By now, you know our first Winter Meltdown guest for 2026 is LaTroy Hawkins. Today, we’re excited to reveal the second featured interview taking the stage at this year’s Twins Daily Winter Meltdown: Minnesota Twins manager Derek Shelton. Shelton was named the new manager of the Twins in late 2025, marking a return to an organization that already knows him well. He previously served as Minnesota’s bench coach during the club’s recent run of division titles, making this a homecoming as much as a new chapter. Shelton takes over the role from Rocco Baldelli and brings with him a steady, experienced voice shaped by years of leadership at the major-league level. Before returning to Minnesota, Shelton spent five seasons as manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, leading a team in the midst of a rebuild and earning respect for his steady leadership, strong relationships with players, and forward-thinking approach. His résumé spans nearly every corner of a major-league staff, from player development to hitting coach to bench coach, giving him a broad, practical perspective that connects equally well with established veterans and emerging talent. At the Winter Meltdown this weekend, fans will get a rare opportunity to hear directly from Shelton early in his tenure as Twins manager. Expect insight into his return to Minnesota, his vision for the team, and reflections on the journey that brought him back to the Twin Cities – all in the relaxed, fan-first atmosphere that has become a Meltdown tradition. Pairing Shelton with LaTroy Hawkins creates a must-see lineup: a former fan-favorite Twin alongside the franchise’s new on-field leader. Add in live interviews hosted by Aaron Gleeman and John Bonnes, and the 2026 Winter Meltdown is shaping up to be another unforgettable night for Twins fans. Tickets are limited, and if past Meltdowns are any indication, this is one interview you won’t want to miss. Tickets It's not too late to get tickets, but you can't just buy them. We hoped to sell some for $60, but we're limited to just 250 tickets, and we need to prioritize our Caretakers, so we can't release them to the general public.

With BlackStack once again on board, anyone lucky enough to grab a ticket (details below) will receive two complimentary pints of BlackStack beer while mingling with our Twins special guests (announcement coming soon). Attendees will have the option to choose between two fan favorites: Local 755 New England IPA or Slopes Pilsner. BlackStack Brewing has become a standout fixture in the Twin Cities craft beer scene since opening its doors in 2017 in St. Paul’s historic American Can building. The expansive 20,000-square-foot taproom blends industrial charm with a welcoming, modern vibe, complete with board games, a 220-inch screen to watch Twins games, and plenty of space to hang with friends. At its heart is a commitment to no shortcuts – quality ingredients, distinct flavors, and a collaborative brewing approach that keeps fans coming back for a wide array of hop-forward IPAs, lagers, fruited sours, and more. Not a beer drinker? No problem. BlackStack also offers a wide range of non-alcoholic options, Twins-themed slushies, gluten-free seltzer-based cocktails, and THC drink options. We’re told the NA Bootlegger is a crowd favorite and well worth a try. While many local breweries are known for their atmosphere or location, BlackStack stands out for its intentionally crafted, high-quality beer. Once hard to find outside the taproom, BlackStack is now distributed throughout greater Minnesota – keep an eye out for their distinctive cans wherever you buy beer. You can also visit BlackStack’s website and use their “Where to Buy” tool to track down your favorite beers or THC drinks near you.
