Turning Waters Bed, Breakfast & Brewery (Craft Beer & Brewery in Wabasha MN)

Turning Waters Bed, Breakfast & Brewery in Wabasha, Minnesota, is the only place in the state where you can spend the night under a nineteenth‑century roof and still walk out with a freshly‑poured pint. The 1902 building (the structure survived the Great Depression, no less) sits in historic downtown, opposite the Mississippi River bluffs and the surrounding forest, giving you a genuine sense of place without any of the pretension that usually comes with boutique lodging.

The on‑site brewery turns local grains into rich, well‑balanced craft beers—the flagship Hoppy Girl Amber Ale is a fine example of hop‑forward elegance without the bitterness that makes you wince. Behind the bar, pastries are baked from scratch, their buttery aroma competing with the aroma of malt in a friendly rivalry. An outdoor seating area invites guests to sip under the sky, while the staff’s easygoing manner makes strangers feel like family. Every brew showcases a variety of local ingredients, delivering flavor profiles that are both distinctive and approachable. In short, Turning Waters offers a polished yet relaxed experience that proves quality craftsmanship can be both sophisticated and warmly inviting.
