The Burrito Union finally got its liquor license. The new restaurant at Fourth Street and 13th Avenue East in Duluth is owned by Rod Raymond and Tim Nelson, who also own the Brewhouse.
This spring, Raymond had spearheaded an effort to get the Duluth city charter changed so he could sell their handcrafted beers at the new restaurant near Chester Creek. However, some language in the charter had said alcohol could not be served within 400 feet of a city park. In April, city councilors erased the language. On Monday they granted the eatery a liquor license.
The Burrito Union will be able to sell the Brewhouse's strong stouts starting July 5 and can be open until 2 a.m.
