Well said.

Remember, folks - DRINK LOCAL!

After discussing it amongst ourselves, we have decided to close the taproom on Friday 1/30 in solidarity with MN and the vast and beautiful tapestry of small businesses within our own community in Detroit and across the country.

What has become abundantly clear in our feeds over the last 24 hours is just how many small businesses (including ours) are struggling this winter while shouldering the weight of the world. Using our meager resources and what voices we have to help however we are able.

We are proud of this community and everything we’ve built and remain hopeful that all of our beloved small businesses can continue to receive the support needed to thrive as the essential third spaces we have proven to be.

Great read, Steve.

Still a little time to get over to MCBW to show some love and give them a financial boost before they temporarily shut down to figure out what comes next. An institution in this city, this state, and in the history of craft brewing, MCBW deserves better.

Trivia is ON this Thursday, January 15! Come down at 7:00 pm to Lagerhaus 5 for some Sporcle Live with Wild Bill! Free to play - win fabulous prizes! I'll be there, struggling with world geography and 2020s pop culture, as usual.

A delightful altbier disguised as an amber. Why? Because - sadly - if you call it an altbier, many people won’t order it.

Beer ignorance is great beer missed. Get thee to a brew tour!

The State of Craft Beer: an informative read.

Craft beer today looks very different from the boom of the 2010s, when it seemed like a new brewery was opening every week, and all they needed was a new IPA to bring in customers.
