Exploring Minnesota – Walker, Akeley, Judy Garland Museum & the Minnesota Mining Museum (Ep. 0001)

It was a bit of a surprise to walk into this liquor store and be greeted by all kinds of stuffed animals. The store has an apple selection of beers, spirits, and wines, but it’s the only liquor store I’ve ever been in that has wildlife dioramas. The dioramas are of animals local to this area in Minnesota.

Two taxidermy wolves are displayed in a diorama, depicting a snowy landscape with a stream, trees, and hills in the background. One wolf is sniffing the ground while the other howls in the background, capturing the wild spirit reminiscent of Walker Bay Spirits' untamed essence.
A taxidermy eagle with wings spread is displayed on a wooden shelf under a paneled white ceiling, standing guard over a collection of finely curated bottles from Walker Bay Spirits.
A diorama in Walker Bay Spirits depicts a mother black bear and her two cubs in a forest setting with trees, a stream, and a backdrop of a painted landscape.
A selection of spirits on a countertop, including four tall cans of Portage Brewing Co. Coffeecake Blonde Ale, four cans of Bemidji Brewing Stout, and a bottle of BenRiach Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Walker Bay.
