Brewery Stop #16
Teresa M.

Hundreds of Hops Stop #16 on our 2024 US hop passport self-guided tour, a weekend in Michigan. I went in expecting the Seinfeld Soup experience, brewery-style based on some reviews. WoW, I couldn't have been more wrong. We were greeted by a gal updating signs, food to the right & beer to the left. She was laughing with us, not at us, which is a great start. We ordered tacos cuz they're tacos & one should have them at every opportunity. Both were solid options with fun twists, a nice addition to our drinks. Once the food order was in, we headed to the drink counter & the gent working was quick to ask our drink preferences/dislikes & make suggestions. I didn't find staff to be off-putting at all & actually found them all to be friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the beer and the environment. We'd both come here again.

Taps

Pub crawl stop 1: Ordered a flight of IPA's and stouts. All were excellent but the Grapefruit IPA was my favorite. The best thing was the ladies working the taps. Super friendly and helpful. Wanted out Grand Haven experience to be a good one.

Bazooka Milk Stout

Awesome live music, best beer in Grand Haven and the absolute best service still our favorite brewery. I still remember our first time here years ago - Nutter Your Business. I'll never forget.

We've walked past many times but never actually visited this joint until this week. Venue. My partner and I came here with our twins in a stroller. We tried using the ADA lift to bypass the steps leading into the venue but it wasn't working. There wasn't much seating accessible to us indoors so we opted to sit outside. Drinks. Prepared with a list of beers we wanted to try, my partner went in to order 2 flights, only to find out that flights are not permitted outside since they don't allow glass outdoors. Instead, we got 12oz pours of the white chocolate blonde and the fuzzy nectar sour IPA. The fuzzy nectar was AMAZING. We didn't care for the blonde. It's just a shame we couldn't try more beers in a flight. Food. Gnarly Varley is the food service here. We got the elote fries, stout stew, and fish sandwich. The fries were ok -- the elote flavors didn't really come through strong enough. The stew tasted very burnt -- reminiscent of when you burn a pot of stew and taste all the blackened bits that were scraped off the bottom and mixed in with the whole pot. The fish sandwich was DELICIOUS -- perfectly crispy. Overall. IMO the best 2 things here were the fish sandwich + fuzzy nectar sour IPA.

Pumkin Slap
Amy W.

I am so glad we made the long bike ride from Holland to Grand Armory so I could experience Pumpkin Slap. We had to visit this friendly brewery twice because I had to have another Pumkin Slap before we went home. I stupidly split the first one I had due to the fact that we had to pedal back to Holland after this. The service was quick, and the bartenders were so nice and efficient. We bought some canned Pumpkin Slap and Nutter Your Business to take home. They do offer BBQ food and had live music when we were there. This was a favorite for me!

Brisket, pork, greens, sweet potato mash

Came here for a concert a couple weeks ago with some friends. It was my first time here, and I don't get to Grand Haven very often. We had a great time. The music was great and I enjoyed the BBQ. There are separate ordering sites for drinks and food, so be prepared to wander around a little bit to get seated and whatnot. Definitely want to come back for more beer.

I went for a roadtrip this weekend and some friend tattered at this place which is a coffee shop, brewery and a BBQ joint. Didn't have the chance to try the coffee but I did try the briscket tacos. I wouldn't recommend them, it was three tacos and they add many sauces to it which at the end you don't get to try the flavor of the meat. I gotta say I'm a traditional when it comes to bbq places so this was very different. The meal was three tacos, chips and a mango salsa (good but wouldn't pay again for that). I asked for coke and the BBQ place doesn't sell them, I went to the brewery clerk (few steps away) and they just sell root beer or orange soda made by them. The place was kind of a factory vibe and had outside seating so definitely would go for the coffee next time.

Loved everything about this brewery. The staff, ambience, artwork and most importantly BEER. Wheezin juice has always been my favorite so I was excited to try it at the brewery. This is a great hangout and I hear the BBQ is great as well. I'll be back every time I'm in the area!

So good! Get it

I really like this place! Cool spot and good vibe. They share the spot with a rib and coffee joint. Righteous BBQ and Aldea Coffee. Did a beer flight of 8 beers and everything was so good. Lots of depth and flavor. Would recommend: wheezin the juice, sap on tap, russian stout, pineapple grindage, and the cloudy with chance of hops. I was super disappointed they were out of the white chocolate blonde. I saw a lot of people walk out with the Crop Duster but I didn't get to try it. Overall great spot and I would definitely return next time I'm in town. Price was good at avg per beer for the flight. 4 pk specialty beers $20, 6 pks I think were $12ish.

Fab beer

Just arrived in Grand Haven... First stop was the Grand Armory - great decision . We had the Wheezin the Juice, the K-9 Rye, and the Tied down to Michigan IPA... all excellent. Then, on to food, the brisket handheld (excellent chips) and a bowl of chili. We are two happy campers . Will definitely come back and highly recommend .

Plate of meat and sides, dirty tots

My husband and I stopped in and grabbed 3 total drinks and some food. They have respectable beers and the food was decent as well. The tots are the best I have ever had, however the brisket was a bit dry. They had live music and the atmosphere was warm and inviting! I would come back.

The guy that was hosting was very helpful and gave us updates often on when a table would be available. Beer was ok. Nutter beer was my fav. Tje bartender was nice and knew all the merch options.

The indoor/ outdoor space blends together in the warmer months with cool hangout spaces and game areas. This place is truly a work of art. Drink lists abound, but because it was lunchtime we stuck to food. We were not disappointed. Everything was well conceived and delicious. I can't wait to come back and try the bone bread next time, stew and scrumptious sounding salads. Today we had the kids smash burger, Brussels burger with frites and fried haddock and frites with a delicious coleslaw. The best part? Different sauces to choose to dip the fries in. The curry ketchup was the best (special shout out for *actually* cooking the curry into the ketchup) as it did not taste of raw curry. They definitely don't cut corners here. We noticed, and we appreciated it. We will be back.

Yes, they have a small parking lot, and don't fret if you have the park on the street like we did, as we were seating promptly and it didn't feel too crowded. Since we were seated at high tops near the bar, the bar tender was our waitress, and she is literally the nicest, good energy, engaging human ever! She also whips up the custom, creative mimosa recipes, kudos to her for her awesomeness! I ordered the Shakshuka, flavorful, delicious, would order again. Even as a non-vegan, it was satisfying and would recommend to everyone. Husband had the 1964 Worlds Fair Waffle, and it was tiny. Not what you envision when you think of Belgian waffles. He also ordered the Belgian Forest Bacon, again VERY small portion, so much so that at the end of the meal, he had to order a side of the Smashed Maple Sausage. Both our drinks (I had the mimosa) were fantastic and worth ordering, loved the glassware! Aside from the small portions of waffle, bacon, and sausage, the cheerful vibes here are contagious, and I'd dine here again in a heartbeat!
