Duluth-based restaurateur and businessman Rod Raymond owns a number of facilities in northern Minnesota. One of these establishments, Fitger’s Brewhouse, is widely hailed as an excellent destination for beer enthusiasts seeking a large selection of high-quality, award-winning craft brews. Founded in 1995, Fitger’s Brewhouse produces more than 100 different styles and 2,000 barrels of handcrafted beer per year, including its proprietary, award-winning Witch Tree E.S.B. and Big Boat Oatmeal Stout. Fitger’s Brewhouse also offers a plethora of premium food items, including its homemade hamburgers and beer-battered onion rings. In line with owner Rod Raymond’s commitment to physical and mental health, Fitger’s Brewhouse sponsors a triathlon in early August, as well as “adventure teams” in curling, softball, skiing, and cycling. In addition to Fitger’s Brewhouse, Rod Raymond owns the RedStar Club, located in the same building as Fitger’s Brewhouse in Duluth. With a variety of music suitable for customers of all tastes, RedStar provides superior entertainment for a wide range of patrons. RedStar also serves as an ideal venue for special events, such as rock and hip-hop mash-up sets or salsa-dancing lessons. Thanks to Rod Raymond’s dual ownership of the RedStar Club and Fitger’s Brewhouse, RedStar offers the same rotating combination of 20 craft beers as its sister location. To supplement its extensive beer selection, RedStar also provides a number of drink specials for patrons looking for an alternative. The drink menu at RedStar lists such classics as martinis and wines, as well as unique items such as beer cocktails and infused beverages. For those looking for discounted drinks on weeknights, RedStar hosts happy hours on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays starting at 7:00 pm.
