This is such a wonderful place with as many as 40 brews on tap.....and the menu is outstanding! The also have a very good bottle selection and wine list as well. Dont forget to go downstairs as well for pool and jukebox, with another smaller bar with more selections on draft an bottle. The staff is also very freindly and realitivly knowledge, they will let you know some of the opinions they have and can awnser questions as well.The best thing is that I litterally live across the street....like less than 40 yards from the front door.....and I am fortunate to do so.

Great place to stop and get a bite to eat with a brew or stop for great selection of Bottled beer and stuff on tap, wife took me there for my Birthday. We stopped in right after the lunch time, they must have had about 30 to 40 taps along with 20 bottled beers available, I tried the two Shorts brews on the tap menu along with a Pot Pie and Macaroni Cheese dish, tasty food along with great service, I recommend stopping here, it was pretty quiet when I visited but I can see the noise geting up there with a full house, the old church building accentuates the vocal vibrations, stop in and enjoy their food and large selection of brews.

Large taplist of some hard to find brews and a decent bottle selection make this a must stop in nothern Oakland county. That being said, they could be a must stop for the metro Detroit if they would swap out the 10 taps of "macro craft" like Redhook and Blue Moon and replace it with some of Michigans finest like Founders, Dark Horse, etc. They have four Bells taps and currently two Stone: smoked porter and arrogant bastard. Bottle selection contains some of the Belgians they are missing on tap including the full line of Chimay, Duvel, and Orval. Lots of Sam Smith as well. Food is good and worth eating. As others have noted, place can get busy so call ahead.

I love this place. It’s in an old church right on Main Street. They have 20-30 beers on draft and all are micros or imports. Plus, they have a stellar bottle selection. Prices are medium/high, but it is such a relaxing place. There is usually quite a wait, but don’t forget to go down to the basement to play free pool or check out the greatest hidden jukebox of all time! Plus, they have a small bar there with a few drafts. Food is decent, if not a bit salty. Overall, it’s a gem.

This is a fun place to drink beer. There is a nice variety of American beers, though not much in the way of imports. The food is excellent, the specialty being baked macaroni - try it, it’s good. Another plus is the 5 beer sampler. Get two of these and you can try the best of the 30 or so beers on tap and still walk a relatively straight line.

Great food! Excelent beer selection. Best service if sitting at the bar. Gets VERY crowded Thursday, Friday & Saturday nights. Best time to go is on the way home from work (3:00 - 6:00)
