According to their website Fetch is the distance wind travels across open water to create a wave. Their wave is beer. We were on our way to Bardic Wells in Montague last weekend when I saw the sign and knew we had to make an extra stop. “Stop trying to Read more…
A short distance from the hustle and bustle of Downtown Ferndale you can find the new Taproom for Axle Brewing. Just to be up front, I went in with low expectations. Not because Axle doesn’t make good beer, but because I’m normally not a fan of the styles I can find Read more…
Most of the time I get recommendations for new breweries to try out by word of mouth. I was on a west side beer, I mean Lighthouse, trip one weekend, sitting at the bar at The Livery chatting with the Bartender and trying some delicious beers, when a fellow patron suggested I Read more…
The best thing about a quest to visit every brewery in Michigan is the opportunity to visit a lot of really cool places. With over 125 checked off on the list so far, I would say I’ve gotten to visit a whole lot of them. Sometimes you aren’t really feeling Read more…
My #OperationMIBrew adventures recently took me to the town of Lapeer and Tilted Axis Brewing Company. The Building, built in 1893 is pretty cool itself, but what they’ve created inside has made it a hot spot in Downtown Lapeer. My visit was on Memorial Day so I wasn’t sure if Read more…

A trip to Lansing last weekend has revealed my favorite brewery that no one has heard of. To be fair, others have heard of Ozone’s Brewhouse. Actually, they even responded positively to my check in while I was there. So I guess I should say that you MAY have not Read more…
At first glance Exferimentation reminded me of my college days where we would hang out in the local coffee shop. Wait, that was a T.V. show, never mind. It does have the local mom and pop coffee shop vibe though. The eclectic décor and Do it Yourself feel make for Read more…
Finally back on the Michigan Beer trail again this weekend and found myself at Parker’s Hilltop Brewery in Clarkston. At first I wasn’t sure this would be the place for me. It was a Saturday evening, so of course it was crazy busy. They did have complimentary valet service to Read more…
