It was decided in a 2012 ruling by Minnesota's Fourth Judicial District court that "Minnesota’s antitrust and monopoly laws do not apply to its land-grant university", according to Fruit Growers News. In 2010, a lawsuit was filed challenging the legality of University of Minnesota selling exclusive rights to the new variety. The practice implementation has attracted criticism due to its development through a public research institution. The practice, called "managed variety" for high quality standards, was a new concept to the United States when the apple was developed.

Members, who pay royalties for a license on producing the 'Minneiska' trees, can sell the apple only through the cooperative. The apple could not be grown by non-members. The cooperative later branched out and allowed members from Michigan, Washington, New York and a few other northern states. An exception was granted to Minnesota orchard growers for plantings in very small amounts. These commercial growers were originally only in the state of Minnesota. The orchard in turn in 2006 established a 45-member grower's cooperative named Next Big Thing. The University of Minnesota awarded exclusive marketing rights to grow, have others raise, and sell the 'Minneiska' apple cultivar and any mutations to Minnesota's largest apple orchard, Pepin Heights Orchards of Lake City, Minnesota. The concentrated flavors are "more complex than the Honeycrisp" author Amy Traverso compared the apple's flavor to "spiced apple cider". The 'Minneiska' apple has a texture similar to the 'Minnewashta' and 'Honeycrisp' apples (its parents), with a slightly tart fall spicy citric quality. It was created by University of Minnesota's plant development program at their Horticultural Research Center. In 2000, the new apple variety was known during development by the identifier MN 1914. The name is a registered trademark owned by University of Minnesota.
It is a hybrid of two other apple varieties the university developed – the ' Honeycrisp' and the ' Minnewashta' (brand name Zestar!) – produced by the 'Minneiska' tree. It was refined by University of Minnesota in 1999 from a grafted tree of 1988, and released in 2006. The brand name of the cultivar (cultivated variety) of the apple 'Minneiska' is "SweeTango". The concept of exclusive control of a variety of fruit was new then in United States customs and drew criticism that led to lawsuits. It was exclusive at first to the state of Minnesota and later membership was expanded to certain qualifying farmers, mostly to growers of the northern parts of the United States.
They then in turn developed a cooperative of certain selected farm growers and sold rights to these members to produce the apple. University of Minnesota awarded Pepin Heights Orchards exclusive marketing rights to grow and sell the 'Minneiska' apple. It has a sweet- tart taste that some food writers have described as something between brown sugar and spiced apple cider. The apple is controlled and regulated for marketing, allowing only exclusive territories for growing. It is a cross between the ' Honeycrisp' and the Zestar Apple belonging to the University of Minnesota. SweeTango is the brand name of the cultivated apple 'Minneiska'.
