After a hot afternoon of hiking, a cool beer sounded like a plan. It was late on a Sunday afternoon and the small taproom was about half full, with the outdoor seating areas about the same. We got samples of the 2 IPAs on tap and settled on Duncan Bay IPA, a refreshing American IPA with fairly restrained hops. Lots of beers on the menu were fruit-flavored, which is usually not our jam (so to speak). One that caught our eye was an imperial cinnamon hefeweizen. I could see potential for that to go either very right or very wrong but ventured a sample. It came with a honey/cinnamon glaze on the rim of the glass, which the barman explained was optional. We didn't like the glaze but did like the beer and opted for a small pour sans glaze. Ended up taking a crowler of that with us. A very unique and satisfying beer. Very worth a stop if you're in Cheboygan. I'd love to get back in the cooler months to see what kinds of warm-ups are on tap. read more

Busy afternoon, beautiful deck and an adoption event with a dog that wanted to come home with us. Very windy day and amazed to find a spot that wasn't too bad. Inside was hopping and glad we sat on the patio for a calmer quieter vibe. Great beer, would come again! read more

It was very busy and had live music and service was still great! Don't sell food but there was a food truck you could order from but that was just ok. I literally drove 3 hours to have my favorite beer at that brewery!! read more

One of my favorite breweries! It's not often that I go to a brewery and like almost every single beer but I do here. The cinnamon Hefeweizen with the honey and cinnamon sugar rum is my favorite beer of all time! They often have a music a here, a great patio and rooftop. The bartenders are always very kind. They now have a food truck servicing Mediterranean food but you can also bring in outside food. Love CBC, always a good time read more

Lots of beers on draft - I tried the Belgian. Lots of games to play. My toddler loved the Yeti with Spaghetti and the giant connect four. The musician was supposed to play until 9p but when we got there at 8p he was shutting down. He said they asked him to move his set time to earlier. Very bummed we missed the live music with no indication there'd be a time change. read more

The two beers we sampled were very good. The inside area is fairly small, but there is plenty of rooftop or ground level patio space. They also have chilled beer to go in single cans or four packs. Merch is available, no food. They were out of Tag-A-Brew, but are on the trail. I would return if I'm in the area again. Loved the beer variety. read more

A nice relaxing place to enjoy a drink with friends. They have an awesome patio and top deck, with live music if you go at the right time. They have a wide selection of beers. I can't say any of them would make my top 10 all time favorites but they are all solid and certainly worth a try. Can't go wrong with the Blood Orange Honey or Blackberry Blonde Ale. There's no food, or at least none that I noticed but you can bring your own. Or apparently even have it delivered there Like the table next to us got a pizza. Service is quick, never a wait for drinks and bartenders are very friendly and helpful going through the different beers if you've never been. read more

Try this!! If you like a dark stout this won't disappoint, the chocolate cherry notes give it the perfect finish. They have a perfect roof top patio to sit on, unwind and enjoy a summer evening. If dark beer is not your thing they also have many other options to choose from including flights if you can't decide on just one. read more

Just stopped in for a quick peak. They have a cooler off to the side where you can get six packs to go. Or you can buy individual brews and build your own 6 pack. That's my favorite way to buy beer, especially somewhere I've never been, it gives me an opportunity to see what's good. This is a definite must visit for the craft beer enthusiast. read more

Two weeks ago we were in Cheboygan for the week...craft beer nerd, this was my first stop. Walked in early afernoon on a Thursday so there was only one other pair in, which I was glad as I told beertender Logan when reading the yelps they all mentioned how small the tap room was. Personally I think it's comfortably small....then again I wasn't trying to drink on a packed Friday night. I didn't head out to the patio or up to the roof top. I wasn't driving so after telling Logan "hey you're my first Michigan brewery and 308th ever... I want to try everything...but your IPA, however I am very intrigued as it's only 40 IBU". I asked Logan to pour me a little taste of it and w that 40 IBU it was quite tasty. If you're not a piny/bitter IPA fan, be sure not to miss the Tree Love iPA. My mom, a staunch Lite & MGDLight drinker opted for two pints of the refreshing La Cerveza. When I asked Logan if they had flights and how much? I was met w yes, $13 but we have a special and they're $10 today. Took the sting out of trying twelve beers over three flights. I think maybe they're getting 2024 merch so I picked up a $20 shirt on sale for $13. After trying all the beers, my ruling was... they were all good, I would order any of them again, including the IPA, but none walked away a favorite. Not a bad thing, I prefer a brewery where I'm not pigeon-holed and only order That Beer. Logan was friendly and knowledgeable as I didn't know anything about the MI craft brew scene, just that I wanted to try one brewery....until he said it was about three more hours away. Parking for Cheboygan was easy, just street parking. I liked that the brew house was right behind the bar. While there the brewer came out for a bit and I was unstoppable chatting craft beer, he got up and went to the brew house... when he returned, he set down a pour, I believe from the tank....can't get fresher than that! Of his Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Smores Pastry Stout and it was a delicious ending to an afternoon of drinking my way through his tap list. Albeit our conversation was extremely brief, he was a delightful fellow! I also met the pleasant Events Coordinator Autumn. For a small tap room I appreciated there was several standard height tables! Thanks Cheboygan for being a memorable first ever Michigan brewery and for the lovely staff and good beers that will go w that memory. Cheers. read more

Friendly people! Great environment! And the beer can't be beat! The brewer came out and talked to us about the processes and some special beers he was working on. read more

Very nice facility and staff. Beautiful equipment in the back room!! I stopped for a growler of Kolsch style beer. The beer tasted fine and was drinkable, but it was very hazy and didn't really have the Kolsch-style flavors I was looking for today.... I'll be back, but will try a different style next time. read more

Dog friendly. The outside patio had some games to play if you chose to do so. I preferred being outside as it was rather small inside, really all you could do is get your drink and sit outside. read more

Love that you can bring in your own food. You can also get a flight of beer to try all that the brewery offers! Love the outside deck that overlooks Main Street. Great for people watching! Recommend! read more

5 stars and could go for more! Great spot with an inviting atmosphere! Came up here with a group of friends and didn't leave disappointed. Love the staff and people! I heard the beer was out of this world! Can't wait until next time - we will be back! read more

This is just such a great brewery! in the wintertime, they really have more fun with their beer because CBco. isn't hammered with producing so much of their Blood Orange for the stadiums downstate. It's worth the drive to Cheboygan! This week (after 2021 Christmas) they had two outstanding beers on tap that I just had to try: Oatmeal Cookie stout and an Imperial Cinnamon Hefeweizen served in a cin/sugar rimmed glass. Two dessert beers, IMO. Just great stuff. I also got a crowler can of their Cherry Stout to go. They folks here are super friendly (patrons and employees). Dog friendly outside only, I believe. Bring your own food if you like because they are hip to that since they don't serve their own. This is a brewery, not a restaurant. And I love that about CBco. In the warm months, sitting on the patio ground level or their roof deck overlooking the street and the river is a favorite of my wife, our friends, and mine. We have a place 25 miles east of Cheboygan, so we have to limit our intake of their fine beers. If we lived in town, my wallet would be thinner and my waistline wider because I don't think I could get tired it here. read more

Friendly staff and delicious tasting beers! If you're in the area, stop in for a drink! I wasn't able to stay but if you can pop upstairs and enjoy your beer outside. Don't forget to collect your TagaBrew while you're here. Cheers! read more

Yay!! We made it just in time to get a growler and some 4 packs of their IPA. This brewery is sooooo welcoming. I had a wonderful conversation with their brewers. What I love best about Michigan is they are soooooo friendly and love to give their opinion of where to go!! Can't wait until tomorrow to explore. Would recommend this brewery and plan on coming back tomorrow!! read more

We rolled into Cheboygan at dusk and were excited to enjoy a flight on their upper patio deck. This was our first time here and I wanted to try a few of their beers. I hear so many great things about this brewery. The brewery itself is very small and is located in the middle of town. Due to Covid, we were not able to go into the brewery, but that was just fine with us, we were enjoying the beautiful, colorful sky. He doesn't like to be cold, but luckily it was perfect sweater weather so we were both comfortable. He is a fan of their Blood Orange Beer and I really had a difficult time deciding which beer I enjoyed the most...they were all fantastic. We plan on coming back up this way in the fall to do the M-23 beer trail along the eastern coast of Michigan. We have pretty much covered the breweries along the Western Coast over the last two years. We have had such a wonderful summer exploring our state, meeting new people, and finding hidden gems. #puremichigan read more

As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted with hello by the barmaid .After sampling a couple beers I settled on a pint of lighthouse Amber and a 5 ounce chocolate cherry stout. Both were delicious. Nice little spot with friendly people. The only thing I would suggest is some snack food a popcorn machine, free popcorn people drink a lot of beer. on a trip to Mackinac Island we always search out breweries Cheboygan like a 15 minute drive down the coast great place thank you read more

Best Beer I've ever had. I thought I wasn't a beer drinker until I tried Cheboygan's Blood Orange Honey. Relaxed atmosphere & friendly knowledgeable staff. Great vibes. People actually talk to each other because there is NO TV. It's nice to get a break from all the screens everywhere. read more

Cute brewery in the heart of downtown Cheboygan. Tasty beer, free popcorn, and friendly staff make for an excellent overall experience. It was a bit chilly when we visited so we sat inside. However, my dad tells me that the rooftop patio is a good place to sit in the summer and is typically filled from late June to mid August. As far as the beer goes, I really enjoyed the "La Cerveza" and their "Blueberry Cream Ale". We also got a sampler 4 pack of tall boy cans ($8!!!! So cheap!) and my fiancé enjoyed their IPA (it wasn't on tap but it was good out of the can). We also enjoyed looking at their old school truck that was parked out front when we visited, as well as reading all about the history of beer in Cheboygan inside. read more

Cool place with great history right on the strip on an up and resurgent city- with one of the better beers available today for easy drinking and especially summer drinking in 'Blood Orange Honey'. Popcorn on hand and awesome merch if you want as well as a rooftop deck! read more

Wonderful brewery. The outside area and the roof patio are both great places to enjoy the sunshine and a fine brew. I had three. The Blood Orange Honey was delicious, lighter than I expected but a decent abv and easy down the hatch. The Back Forty Saison was also a nice treat. Smooth for a saison, easy to drink. And finished off with a dessert beer the Chocolate Cherry Stout. Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this brewery, call me crazy but I'm calling it in the top ten in Michigan. read more

We loved our first visit to Cheboygan Brewing! Delicious beers, free popcorn, with tons of flavors to add in. We tried, ranch, nacho cheese, dill pickle and bacon!

Delicious beers and a sunny roof top perfect for a spring afternoon. Staff is incredible! Keep an eye on the music - they bring in some great local bands. They have a 5 barrel nano system that keeps creative new brews coming all the time. And they always have popcorn... plus free bubbles and chalk for the kids... or The Big Dipper ice cream is just 2 doors down! read more

What a cute little chill brewery! You order at the bar and then sit where ever you'd like. There's inside seating with ac, outside patio or up top roof patio where you can over look Main Street! No food served but they do offer popcorn with seasonings or you are welcome to bring in your own food! Servers were all so nice! read more

Awesome tasting room! So great and was the middle of a Wednesday afternoon. All the beer was so good and the gal working the room was spectacular read more

Good beer. Only 4 on tap which is good, keeps them fresh. We came here after a 2-dive day with northern Michigan dive shop doing a couple shipwrecks. The beer is cold and bright, very satisfying. For food, there is a "Cheboygan Chiefs" burger guy across the street if you want food. Otherwise, grab food from Mulligans then come here. Or if you are a fast food person, there is an Arby's and McD's too nearby. read more
