As such, we invited new Racket dining correspondent Kirstie Kimball of  beyond beurre blanc  to join fellow critic Em Cassel of Racket to hashbrown out the year that (almost) was in Minnesota food and drink. Recs are offered. Shit is talked. And the seemingly ballooning craft beer bubble? You better believe it's speculated over. See ya in 2026. Subscribe  to  RacketCast  wherever you get your podcasts—Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pocket Casts, etc.  •  Wanna  advertise  on  RacketCast ?
