      Is it currently open for indoor dining or just outdoor?

      A:

      Best to ring them up because its changing by the week. Saw them outside a few weeks ago but the warm weather and reduction in mask requirements might change that. Be sure to post a pic if you drop in for a cold one

      Saturday at noonish- walked in and grabbed seats at the bar. What we liked-
      * We like sitting at the bar- some breweries actually don't have a bar- they did and we liked it.
      * both the beer and spiked cider was good.
      * wished we would of ordered pizza- it looked amazing.
      * lots of fun people at the bar.

      What could of been better-
      * The wings were ok- just prefer them crisp and not slimy

      Had a great time- will be back

      When I tell you that this is the perfect spot to warm your behind and have a hot meal, it's the perfect spot! Bar tender is so friendly, and his interest in local and country wide beers is refreshing. Sandwiches are outstanding, but beers on tap are my favorite. Will visit again when in Detroit.

      Came by on a Sunday afternoon for some beer and snacks. Basic setup with a u-shaped bar in the middle, stools and tables around, and some outdoor seating.

      Started off with the Summer Beer ($7.50) - deep wheat with a smooth finish. Paired this with the Artichoke Dip ($11ish), creamy and intense, served alongside a handful of thick tortilla chips. Intense flavor in the do which overpowered the oily chips. Next was "The Demon" Irish Red ale ($7ish) - a malty amber that was a fine cap to the meal.

      Service started off slow then worked its way up. Good spot for drinks and snacks.

      I love their pizza and artichoke dip (super spicy). We drive about 45 minutes just to come get this deliciousness! They brew their own beer and cream soda (when available). I think they haven't been brewing the soda lately because they've been out the last two times we came, but my kid is addicted to the cream soda! The staff are always welcoming. This is a wheelchair accessible restaurant, big bathrooms and one parking spot. There's no way to get up to the roof unless you can trek it but there's always fun in the main dining room or outside in the tents.

      They make an amazing Bronx Bomber even without cheese (as requested).

      One of my favorite breweries and pizza places in Metro Detroit. The beer is excellent and my favorite pizza is the Bronx Bomber. I ask for my pizza without cheese and it's still great. The chili is good and spicy and people in my group like the spinach and artichoke dip.

      They don't really do 1/2 and 1/2 this is a Bronx Bomber no cheese and cheese pizza leftovers to go home. Tastes great warmed up in the oven.

      I didn't try the product, but I loved the small business Saturday vendor fair. Thank you!

      Tara is a great bartender. She was extremely friendly and efficient. I wanted to try the Octoberfest before I got a pint of it and she gave me a taster immediately. It was asked if I wanted a half liter or whole when I chose to order a pint. Tara explained the size difference when I was unsure.
      I tried the hot crab dip with tortilla chips, excellent flavor!
      I got two pizzas to go- The special,, a Kevin Bacon and a BBQ Chicken. Both were delicious.
      Next time I will bring my hubby, I will be back.

      Great brewery in midtown. Our group grabbed a table on the back patio on a sunny day. They have a good variety as well as a cider, a red, and a white wine. Their pizza is also great, they do a small/personal size and have a good variety. You order at the counter to the friendly staff, they give you a table number, and then they bring it over to you. All of the pizza we tried was better than average. Laid back atmosphere, good staff, and a good experience.
