Stop #21 on our Hundreds of Hops Tour…read more This unassuming sleeper is tucked in next to a sometimes open dive bar & it's 100% worth a stop. We were greeted by a full wall mural in Caribbean style, with the theme continued throughout. There was a cooler with Mexican soda, which made sense after chatting with the owner. This place just SCREAMS, "sit down & chill for a while." Something we've come to love about the small breweries is getting up close & personal with brewers, seeing their passion for their art & experiencing their willingness to share the how, what, why & even the where you should try next. While every brew we tried here was on point, Big Chungus was our favorite of the trip. We also were in agreement that the selection here was the most balanced & well-rounded out of all of our stops... leaves ya saying, "Founders who? Bells what?" Do yourself a favor if you're in the area & stop by for a drink or 3, and enjoy the company great people.

Hundreds of Hops Stop #16 on our 2024 US hop passport self-guided tour, a weekend in Michigan…read more 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.

Don't worry - they still have lots of beer, we just decided on cocktails. We sat the bar, we really like their bar. It's huge and has lots of barstools. I had Captain Sparvelous' Lonkero, I loved it! He had a Maple Rye Chaider and really enjoyed it. This was not our first time, nor will it be our last. Great spot to try in Grand Haven.

Pigeon Hill is located near Lake Michigan in a large, former Brunswick facility with lots of…read morehistory. The space is spacious and inviting, and has a large outdoor seating area. They have a wide variety of beers and and when we spoke with the server, he told us the philosophy of Pigeon Hill is to brew quality beers with consistent quality. My husband had the Catalina Mexican Lager. He said it was light and fresh for a lager. Definately worth stopping in , especially when the weather is warm to enjoy the outdoor seating area and the views.

The other night we had a birthday party there and hosted out there room in the back…read more There was okay bar service all night but the food for what we paid for was quite disappointing if i was honest. We paid 90 something dollars for a veggie platter, to have wilted tomatoes, dry carrots and no broccoli. We paid 15 dollars a pizza to have the pizza just to be cold and small. If i recall it was only a 12 inch personal pizza for 15 bucks.. And the chicken in the pot was soggy because they steamed it for an hour before we where able to access it. We noticed a safety hazard and made sure management noted it for when we leave and not shortly after that they jacked up the music very very loud intending to kick us out. Overall we where really disappointed and would not recommend this place for a get together.

We tried two different ciders and both were tasty and refreshing. They even make their own wines & spirits.

He tried the Shady Jackson, Lake State Lager, Summer Spin and Chris and the Giant Peach. He enjoyed them all and liked the crispness of the peach and mango in the Summer Spin. They also distill liquor, so I enjoyed a vodka lemonade. Their vodka was smooth . They offer food and you order at the food counter. Per the recommendation of the chef we tried the taco pizza. It was excellent. He explained they make their own salsa, season the meat and dough. The pizza was topped with crushed tortilla chips. The blend of flavors and fresh salsa was very good. There are plenty of seating options and the atmosphere is welcoming.

The service was great and the food and coffee drinks came out quick. For drinks I had a banana bread latte and he ordered a mocha with an extra shot. Both were delicious! We ordered 3 different entrees to share - I might not have the names right, so please bear with me if you try to find them on the menu and you can't find the exact same thing. Started off strong with the breakfast burrito. It was so good! I don't know if it had a cheese sauce or just melted American cheese, but it was a good balance of cheese, hash browns, eggs and sausage. The munchwrap was awesome with chorizo sausage, hash browns, a tostada for crunch and cheese all grilled up in a flour tortilla. Last and our least liked was the Cheddar Bay Biscuit bowl. I like the concept, but the execution was poor. The biscuit had been microwaved damn near to death. It was hard to cut through with a knife. The consistency was somehow soggy and hard while also chewy. Add to that the saltiest sausage gravy ever. We each ate one bite, said no thank you and tossed it. Everything else was so good, this might just be a bad one off, but I don't think I could be convinced to try it again. I don't think food is served all day, so if you are hungry, get there before 2pm (I think).

As a DD, I had the best experience at Rake Beer Project…read more I also cannot have sugar and wanted a non-alcoholic choice other than water or the usual one flavored diet soda. I asked the bartender (I wish I would have got his name) if they had any options for me given those 3 things, and he came up with a DELICIOUS sugar free iced coffee option that was so good that one of the friends who had been drinking all night decided she wanted one to go along with her beer. It's sometimes hard as the DD to find a place with any variety and I was so happy to have a place make me a priority too. After all, your DDs are getting those drinkers safely to and from your establishment to bring in those big bucks - so you should give them a little thank you by treating them nicely as well. Thanks Rake Beer Project, for going above and beyond.

Stop #30 on our Hundreds of Hops self-guided US Hop Passport brewery tour…read more When staff are having a good time, it's contagious... and these guys were definitely having a good time. There was singing and dancing - all in good fun, with a light crowd near closing time. I really like everything about this place, from the decor to the beer to the staff interaction. The brews were good & they have some unique offerings. These guys even recommended our next food stop, which I love seeing businesses support each other with referrals. The only hiccup was that the manager closed out our tab & added the customary "you didn't close out" 20% tip while we were still there, as the manager thought we'd left. We found out when we went to close out, that we had already been closed. This actually shorted the barkeep as we definitely would have tipped higher given that we had half off with our Hop Passports... If you have time & you're in the area, head on in & soak it all in while you try out the menu - don't be afraid to get creative!
