Beer and Pizza
Never let it be said my tastes run so hoity-toity I can't enjoy a favorite meal of the proletarian class - beer and pizza. In fact I am enjoying a late lunch of exactly this classic combination right now.
Granted, it's a micro brew-pub India Pale Ale, and a prosciutto and olive flat-bread pizza. But hey, at least I'm being me. I'm not pandering to some perceived rube-class by ... oh I dunno... pretending to be a huge country music and NASCAR fan, unlike some Connecticut raised, Ivy league educated pretenders with talk radio shows I could mention. But we'll leave that aside.
I've gotta plug this food though. The flatbread pizzas at Granite City Food and Brewery are a steal at 11 bucks. Generous portions, quality ingredients and truly fine beer to wash it down. I don't know when these things hit the menu, because they didn't have them last time I was here. But get ye to a Granite City and enjoy.

Thanks for covering American Idol this year. I just cannot get into it this year. I'm actually rooting for Sanjaya at this point; Sundance is gone, Sligh is gone, Gina is gone...
So if it s the best hand crafted beer in the city you are looking for, that is at Rock, but the menu at GCFB can be worth the beer trade off.
I go to the one in Eagan, eventhough the new location is Rosevill is a bit closer
