DULUTH — Blacklist Brewing Co. is officially done brewing at its 120 E. Superior St. location. The brewery held its final day of service there Sunday, and is now in the process of moving to its new spot in the Lange building at 206 E. Superior St.
Blacklist was founded in 2012 and opened the taproom at 120 E. Superior St. in November 2016.
An opening date for the new location has not yet been announced, but the new Blacklist Brewing Co. taproom will be larger and feature more ax-throwing lanes, a larger patio and more tap lines. The new location will also have an event space and garage doors for indoor/outdoor seating.
Once Blacklist has finished moving out of its old location, Duluth's Best Bread will move in and open a second bakery location in addition to its store at 2632 W. Third St.

Les Grumdahl Window and Siding celebrates 75 years
Les Grumdahl Window and Siding is holding an open house Friday to celebrate its new, larger facility and its 75th year of operation.
The open house will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 5210 McQuade Road, just north of Duluth off Highway 61. Food and beverages will be served and prizes will be given away. Factory representatives will be on-site to answer questions and give product demonstrations.
The family business was founded by Ivar Grumdahl, Les' father, in 1947. Now, Les and his son, Ryan Grumdahl, are business partners. The business sells and installs windows, siding, doors, awnings, gutters, roofing and decks.
Les Grumdahl said his business is the Northland's exclusive dealer of Marvin Infinity and Plygem windows and United States Seamless steel siding.
"We pride ourselves in the fact that we sell and install quality products and give excellent service, as well," Grumdahl said. "But we're most proud of the awards we've won for our service." The awards include the United States Seamless customer service award for the past four years and the Plygem Green Circle award for service.
The business has been in its new facility since November.
