Some of you might recall this from last year. NIPAC stands for the National IPA Challenge, and some of your favorite Michigan breweries are competing...
Hi Patti, My wife and I tried to go there on a Sunday a few months ago. It seems that Ohio doesn't like breweries and wineries open on Sunday. We did peer in...
The few times we've been there they have been hot and cold. Sometimes great beer sometimes not. They used to have a great bar upstairs that had a bunch...
