    IPA....
    Joe C.

    Good atmosphere and location located right in the heart of Ann Arbor. I ate at the bar upstairs which had some "Alien" movie playing on the screens. Unfortunately, the food was just "okay" and the service was really poor. I thought it was just me, but it seems to be a common theme with other locals. On the beer front, I had a good IPA!

    Great beer, great atmosphere, and very friendly workers. Decided to check this place out and I'm glad I did. I will definitely be back. No complaints at all.

    It's not much to look at, but the beer is good.

    Food is average. Good beer selection. Love the old Mission Peninsula. Desserts are good. Friendly service.

This is a super cute spot that specializes in smoked meat and sausages... yes please. We ordered at the counter and the employees were very friendly and helpful with great suggestions. I got the Michigan asparagus, onion, and cheddar brat, and Nate got the currywurst. We also got a cup of chili to share. We got a buzzer for our order and then sat down in the heated outdoor space. They have a lot of outdoor seating and some firepits, so I really want to come back in the fall or summer. Our food was done quickly and we had fun picking stuff from the toppings bar. They had chopped onions, jalapenos, banana peppers, sauerkraut etc. and lots of sauces. I LOVED the brat. It was easy to bite and not super snappy which I didn't mind. The bun was perfectly toasted and the flavor combination was delicious. Kind of like a broccoli cheddar vibe. I had some of the currywurst which was also delicious! The chili was packed with brisket and pulled pork, and was really tasty. There is a bar so you can enjoy a beer with your sausage, but we just grabbed some cold drinks from the cooler. They even have ice cream and floats!! There are lots of great items for sale as well, including lots of pickled things, frozen pierogi, meat sticks and jerky, and they even have Trenary Toast (#iykyk). I am already planning my next visit to try more brats and the brisket sandwich. This is such a great concept and I really wish we had a place like this in Grand Rapids.

In fact, after my visit, I think I actually appreciate its rough appearance. As soon as I walked in, I felt like I was entering "the real deal" of craft; nothing fancy - just quality. In addition to his beers, he also makes his own spirits and the whiskey was absolutely phenomenal. I'm not a huge whiskey guy so I'm sure a "snobby" person may have a different opinion but it's most definitely worth a shot during your visit. The owner, who was working behind the bar, was extremely personable and seemed to make quick friends with every guest that came in. You could tell he takes a lot of pride in his craft. I will be back and will make sure I bring others with me to experience this hidden gem.

When you pull into the parking lot, it can be hard to tell which building the brewery was in. Particularly since there was snow covering the signs. Once we figured it out it was an adventure from there! The ambiance... It reminded me of a mix between a basement bar from the 70s and an old West bar. The owner, Bobby, was awesome! He was so friendly and relatable. We learned all about his farm, his family, and his animals. Love it! He introduced us to his amazing black garlic gin. I mean it was delicious!!! He made a great bloody Mary with it, and it was one of the best I have had. He also sent us home with some garlic and horseradish! We tried some interesting black garlic which was the consistency of a gummy bear and delicious. I can't wait to go back in the summer months. It was such a beautiful place!

The team here asked us to order at the bar before being seated. I don't know if that is their normal process. If it is...it might work well for the restaurants logistics but it creates a less than desirable dinning feel for me. The order takers were very friendly and helpful. They hustled to process the train passengers. The seating area is a large open room. It feels like an old factory turned beer garden. The floors are a nice hardwood. Not much decor or atmosphere in this large room. They did have a singer as entertainment which wasn't the best. For food I started with the potstickers. These weren't your traditional Chinese potsticker. They were over fried and tough. The filling was vegan instead of pork. It didn't work for me and wasn't very tasty. Kinda tough and flavorless. The sweet chili sauce really helped. I also tried the BBQ Mac Burrito. The BBQ was good but not very plentiful. It was a bit hard to find that taste. The Mac & Cheese was nice and creamy. The noodles were soft. Served alone I think they would be fine. Stuffed in a burrito....not a fan of. Please be aware that they don't give free refills on soda. We didn't have table service outside of someone dropping off food. Overall I will give them four stars for opening up special for the train tour. Otherwise I was rather unimpressed with this establishments process and food.

    I came here for dinner with some friends. We didn't have a reservation but were seated immediately…read more I'm surprised how busy/packed the parking lot and the restaurant were. I liked how open it was and that there were a lot of tables/seating and that you could see most of the tables. There is a bar and a good amount of tvs. You can sample any beers or ciders which was nice! My friend and I tried: - apple cider: this was pretty apple-y, nothing special but it's the one I ended up ordering - sangria cider: a little too sweet for me - cherry cider: it didn't taste like cherry to me - mint chocolate chip malt: I was so intrigued that I had to try this. Confirming it does taste like mint chocolate chip! Food we ordered: - chicken Caesar wrap - ahi tuna poke bowl: I thought there would be more seaweed or lettuce but the base was white rice. It was a fine poke bowl but I don't think worth $20 - Korean rice bowl: my friend added shrimp Service was okay. They were busy but things took time to get to us. I would probably come back again.

Our waitress was incredibly friendly and asked if it was our first visit--when we said yes, she was so kind to walk us through their amazing selection of ciders, beers, and more.

The food came out quickly; we ordered a couple of pizzas and a sandwich, and everyone was super happy with their food choices. The drinks were fantastic, and thanks to our lovely waitress, we got exactly what we were in the mood for. The service was top-notch, the atmosphere was lively, and all around, we were all pleasantly surprised recommend it enough!
