The Minnesota Sippin' Santa Pop Up
Every year Beachbum Berry has
Sippin' Santa pop up events all over the country. We have been the past two years in
New Orleans and
Phoenix. The chosen bars are decorated for Tiki Christmas, given a set menu that is consistent across the country, and provided merchandise to sell. It's a lot of fun and the drinks are really great. Sippin' Santa is in the lobby bar at The AC Hotel this year. We were able to walk there in The Skyway. We did the usual and arrived just before opening and took photos and then selected our seats and waited for them to prep and open.
 |
| Our walk took us through a part of the skyway we haven't walked. We saw a mural for The Replacements, a band that came out of Minneapolis. |
 |
| The decorations were pretty fun for a hotel lobby bar. Everyone can't be lucky enough to live walking distance to a legit Tiki Bar. |
 |
| It's Santa!!!!!! |
 |
| This is my first time wearing a Tiki Shirt with a turtleneck under it. |
 |
| The walk home was outside because The Skyway closes at 6pm. It was cold but not too cold. |
It was a really fun evening. There is a MN Tiki Enthusiast group here that we plan on meeting up with during one of their meetups. We couldn't make it to their Sippin' Santa meet up but there will be more meetups soon.
That's it for today. If you missed,
Getting Our Lutefisk Fix, check it out. We ate rehydrated fish in a church basement.
