Amazing beer selection ! The inside is beautiful & huge. Great for parties & if you like one of a kind beers like Toasted Marshmallow & Chocolate Cheesecake from the 12 days of Xmas pack 👍🏻🍻

Dan Rankin

Their beer has GREATLY improved the last couple of years. Cornerstone IPA has become one of my local favorites. Wit's Organic and the Rochester Red are above average as well .

Jon Suminski

Milkshake stout is the best beer to try. Some of the best beers in Michigan. Or try a 5 pick sampler. Burgers are great. Take the brewery tour too. Family oriented place.

B. Irishman

Great food good service and awesome craft beets on a kid friendly place !! Very reasonable too. Their IPA is the best around.

Melissa White

I am never disappointed when we go here. The food and beer is great, and the service is exceptional! Try the lobster Mac and cheese and the brewers bread .

Julia Colosimo

The turtle stout is my favorite. Rochester Red is popular with almost everyone. All the other beer is just so-so. The food and service needs a lot of work. Perfect setting for large groups.

Mary M Motta

my mom & i are the same day, but they didn’t to honor the 2 bday vouchers they’d provided to us as members. we had a table of 4 and were ordering other items as well . this is a new rule. just fyi.

The Hungry Dudes

Brewer's Bread & Brewhouse nachos are very good. The lobster mac n cheese may not be up to Clarkston Union quality, but nice. Cajun Salmon & Avocado Sandwich is one of their better sandwiches . Read more

Beer varieties like the Lazy Daze Lager and Pleszures Pale Ale , and a menu of American-style food, have earned this brewery a reputation as one of Detroit’s great neighborhood bars .

Joe Nagy

Huge bar area with excellent craft beer selection

Scott Greig

Love the cornerstone IPA and special batch Baltic Porter . Fish Taco are also a favorite.

George Diabes

Great atmosphere and beer selection . The wit and Rochester reds are definite winners. Food was lackluster and service was slow, although we did have a large group.

Ian Russell

Awesome nachos and an awesome red ale !

Samir Nazir

solid food and I can usually find something enjoyable on tap

Dano Renel

Great atmosphere on St. Patricks day. Good live band - sipping on a lazy nights dark lager . Not Guinness but damn good.

Katie Keeler

The Mug Club is a great deal-$35ish for the year, biggger and cheaper beers , plus all you can drink for free on your Bday!!!!!

Andrew Schreck

Great local brewery with a good selection of food. And they have a guest tap with something great from somewhere nearby.

In the summer, take advantage of the patio .

TomMini Kuhn

Don't come today for the pumpkin stout the waiter said they ran out 4 hours after they tapped the keg . Guess they should have made a little more considering it was the beer of the day. :-(
