MIBeerBox

MIBeerBox is the home for t-shirts, glassware, swag, and exclusive deals from Michigan breweries. Each month MIBeerBox features a unique Michigan craft brewery.

March’s box featured Brass Ring Brewing in Grand Rapids! Which brewery will be in April’s box?

March Draftness

March Draftness sponsored by MIBeerBox was Better on Draft’s bracket o’ beer. Various Michigan breweries were contacted about participating the bracket to participate and seeds were based on Facebook likes.

Voting was conducted on Better on Draft’s Facebook page each week in March. Each match up had a unique post and votes were counted by Facebook’s emoji “likes”.

By the end of the month, it was down to two breweries – Austin Brothers Beer Co in Alpena and Brewery 4 Two 4 in Holland. Which one will take it all, have Better on Draft come out to their brewery, and buy a keg to giveaway?! Tune in to the podcast to find out!
