Stopped in today. Very nice interior with exposed brick and lots of woodwork. We sat at a table in the bar area downstairs; there’s also seating upstairs, though we didn’t take a look up there. I believe trivia night was going on up there. The downstairs was uncrowded when we arrived, though a couple other tables were taken while we were there. The food menu was better than I was expecting from the website, with some pretty nice pizza rolls as our choices. I tried the Foreign Stout and the American IPA. The stout was really good, and the IPA was interesting, though a little more along the lines of a nice APA. I was also pleasantly surprised to see that the ciders that were available were from our local Northville Winery. We talked with the brewer for a while and got a couple of interesting stories about the place out of him. I’m pretty happy to have a place like this within ten minutes of my house.

Nice little taproom with a small (I’d guess 5 bbl brewhouse). Menu was more for snacks than a meal but what I had was good. The barkeep was very helpful. The ’regulars’ were also rather friendly. Beer-wise: I tried a their IPA, Mild Brown, Genius Stout and Extra Stout. All but the IPA were good examples of their styles. I liked the Brown and Extra Stout the best. The IPA is listed as an American IPA and so I would expect a bit more agressive aroma flavor and bitteness out of an American IPA than what I got so I would consider this an average IPA.

I had a couple of their beers. Both tasted mediocre at best, lacking body and any real thrill. I will give them a break though, since they are so new. It is a great location, and a great building and music. I will definitely check back once they get rolling.
