Inside they lean into the old fashioned theme with the wood and bar, brewing equipment in a side room with some seats, some seats and small bar in the main room, and an upstairs. Bathrooms are large and clean. Staff was fast and polite, I had three beers and all three were good to really good.

Best hazy of my life, sours were unreal (dry, tart, packed with flavor), wine and 12/10 cocktails for the non-beer lovers in your life. A must visit brewery, one of the best in the contiguous US. High octane Wayne is about to take over the brew program too...things are about to get squirrelly!

Inside is a room with tables, and a long bar with the start of a long row of brewing equipment behind it. I had a sample of many of their brews, some were good and two were really good. I also had the smashburger (they have a number of variants on their menu) and it was good. Staff was nice. And made sure I got a new order in before happy hour pricing ended.

A friend and I recently stopped into Water Tower Distilling so we could catch up, have a drink, and see some live music. We were able to see a jazz trio perform, and try out a few of WTD's drink offerings -- definitely some solid options on the menu! We especially liked the Black Cat, but appreciated the diversity of options within the drink menu, especially that there were some interesting NA choices! The service was great and our server was helpful in allowing us to try out different elements of the menu. Overall, I'm glad that Water Tower Distilling has joined the foray of bar options in Downtown Ypsi - I'll be back!

Their German-style beers are unique and thoughtfully crafted, offering something different from the typical brewery lineup. You can tell they put a lot of care into brewing historic and traditional beer styles. My only wish is that they offered a few more non-alcoholic beverage options and some food. Having those available would make it easier to stay longer and accommodate a wider variety of guests. Even so, it's a great spot for beer lovers looking for a distinctive brewery experience.

They had the entire second floor reserved, maned with a solid bartender. The craft beer choices were almost overwhelming. Luckily each recipe was accompanied with a brief description of ingredients, proof, origin & characteristics. Great advice from the bar staff. Pints, steins, schooner & goblets, all rinsed & topped with perfect collars. Party host provided pizza & salad for grazing option. Great send-off for Walter, attended by many from WXYX Detroit, EMU administrators, friends & family. Enjoy your well-deserved retirement Brother, although I somehow suspect this not your last gig!

Every single employee said hello, gave a smile, or conversed with us. Wow! That is rare and it felt great to be there. I was very enamored by the mugs and light fixture created by a local glass blower. Beautiful work. Space is large and we sat at the long bar, but there are tables and booths too. Patio outside for those warm days. They offer beer, cider, wine, spirits... you name it. We went with a few beers and they were great. Menu is clearly labeled with sours containing lactose. Love when it's easy to spot. Food menu has loads of vegetarian options with a small few that could be vegan. We only ordered the spent grain pretzels with mustard and they were delicious. They do have tofu or Beyond burgers to sub on the burger menu if you're vegan. Carnivores have loads of options here. While I'm not in this area too much, I will absolutely be back to this friendly establishment!

Mandy behind the bar was super helpful with recommendations. I had the cherry hard cider which was slightly tart and delicious. Next I had a cup of Wild mushroom Soup which was earthy and rich. I could imagine it being cooked in a cauldron in the woods. Lastly I had their blueberry lemonade salad. Wow! This was a treat from the slightly candied walnuts to the blueberry vinaigrette. I look forward to going back because the fried avocado tacos were calling my name, but I didn't have room for more. This restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

I was lamenting the other day to my husband how I haven't yet found a pizza place in the Ann Arbor…read morearea that has those delectable little pepperoni cups I grew up with in the pizzarias closer to Detroit. You know, the kind the curl upwards and fill up with little bits of grease that clog your arteries but make your tastebuds sing? So he made it his mission to find some options for our regular Pizza Thursday takeout. A Yelp search showed that Jolly Pumpkin in Dexter has the goods I was looking for and we placed an order that week for carryout. And yes!! The photos did not lie. Those perfect little cups were everything I had wanted and more. The cheese was nice and gooey and there's a drizzle of honey that adds a bit of sweetness to the pie. It also comes with peppers but since I wanted to enjoy just straight up pep, we left them off. My husband also ordered the bacon brussels pizza which was also quite good but we agreed that the pepperoni was the star of the show. Dexter is a bit of a drive for us for pizza so I'm not sure how often we'll be doing this but it's good to know I can fulfill my craving when it comes!

There are multiple locations and versions, and they have unique menus. The one in Ann Arbor has a…read morelarger menu. This one in Dexter has limited menu of pizzas, some sandwiches, and a few apps. After a home game, we felt this location would serve us well and it did. Of course we went right as it opened at 4pm on a Saturday. The decor and ambience are typical industrial/micro brew, with booths, tables, and high top seating. The bar is large and there is another room you can reserve for events. Speaking of the bar, you order everything at the bar and they bring it to your table. Not awful, wondering how that works when it gets busy. The beer is good. Had a Hefeweizen that had a different, crisper flavor than what you might expect, which I don't mind. It wasn't served cold, rather slightly chilled. Might be on purpose to let certain flavors through. Personally, I like beer cold. End of story. Also had their Noel seasonal. Boozy at over 9% however not too heavy or overpowering. Had sugar plum notes, which at first threw me a bit. When paired with the mushroom pizza though, I thoroughly enjoyed. Pizza is solid, nice doughy crust with some char to it. If you're looking for some good beers to try and a bit of food, I highly recommend.

No bar or tables in sight…read morewhen you walk through that door on the side of a cinder-block barn in an industrial park by the airport, just some dusty production space, and a folding chair holding a bell with the words "Ring for Beer" printed on the side. We did, and shortly heard a voice inviting us to come into the adjacent tasting room (open only Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). On premises, you're limited to tastes only--four ounce sample pours, drawn from open cans, are available. Beer to go comes in cans, which you can purchase singly, or in six packs with whatever selections you like. Six pack purchases earn a 15% discount, which is nice since the beer is a bit on the expensive side (see menu pics below). Our favorites were the Marzen and the rye barrel imperial stout (the one that really knocked it out of the park!). The brown ale was excellent too. The man behind the bar was very pleasant to talk to and knowledgeable about beer generally. He told us their beers are available at about 20 local stores, as well as on tap in some bars. I hope to see some of those in the future, or perhaps some extended hours for the tasting room.
