Named after the main thoroughfare into downtown Owatonna, this Belgian-style Blonde is as bold as it is historic.

With a refined 28 IBU, it’s the perfect high-gravity tribute to our local roots—built for those who want a blonde with a bit more backbone.

Cinder Hill is a steep 60-foot hill on Linn Avenue overlooking downtown Owatonna.
