The Copper Jewel Barn.

This 13,000 square foot event space, once a feed barn and Quonset hut about one-quarter that size, opened its doors to events in 2014 and is now a state-of-the-art entertainment venue that has been listed by U.S. News Travel Guide as one of the top destination and values in the country. Named after 2nd generation Jewell Doan Sr., who built the original barn, and with its added beautiful copper exterior, this showstopper building is now the focal point of the ranch. With preserving the integrity and history of the building and ranch, each part of the barn tells a story about the homestead. From custom made wagon wheel and barbwire chandeliers, to 130 year old ranch wood and Soo Line railroad lumber throughout, this historic and unique venue evokes western charm and creates a one-of-a-kind atmosphere and experience.

As of 2018, the back of the barn is now home to Black Leg Brewery, the ranch’s latest business venture. The micro-brewery is proudly serving the flagship’s Copper ALE, brewed with local grown and malted barley, and the ranch’s 230ft deep well water for added uniqueness, with other custom creations on tap. The fully-automated brew house is equipped with a 15-barrel – 30 keg system and welcomes any and all for tours and to pull up a stool to the saloon for a tasting.
