A genius brewmaster and the most wonderful and knowledgeable staff make for an exquisite experience. The selections reflect a thoughtful year-round curation that provides familiar tastes for casual beer fans, a deeper dive into the historic beers of Europe, and delightful braggots for every season. The Becker family’s renovation of the former Western House provides a master class in historic preservation linked to the social and economic vitality of downtown Brighton, now even more vibrant with the recent streetscape renovation.

Stepped into Brewery Becker and boom – hit by a wave of something different. This isn’t your cookie-cutter brewery. The vibe? It’s like stepping into a friend’s living room, if your friend knows a thing or two about crafting a killer brew.The staff? Top-notch. They’re not just serving beers; they’re hosting you. Makes you feel right at home, and that’s before we talk about the eats. The soft cheeses here? Think creamy, dreamy, and perfectly tangy. And the hummus – it’s like they’ve whipped up some ancient family recipe.Now, the main act: the beers. Each one’s a standout. They’re not just brewing here; they’re crafting. It’s like each sip tells a story – something you don’t get from your average brewery.In short, Brewery Becker’s got it. It’s a place with a soul, serving up brews with character. If you’re tired of the same old, give this spot a shot. It’s not just different; it’s deliciously so.

Always love their beer and pretzels! The staff is always very kind as well. We've sat inside as well as outside and it's both a nice experience and not too loud

Hands down the best beer outside of Belgium. I love the atmosphere and the staff is outstanding as well.

The biergarten here is fantastic. One of my favorite places downtown to visit. Lots of seating and dog-friendly patio area. Really, the whole building gives you terrific ambiance. The folks behind the bar are always super welcoming, adding to the atmosphere. It's a hip place that I also feel comfortable bringing my toddler to. Try the kolsch!

Authentic brewery in the heart of Brighton with the best Biergarten in all of Michigan! Friendly staff, excellent management, and a great Oktoberfest celebration. We would highly recommend a visit any time of year.

Beautiful patio with a great atmosphere. Maybe the building is not big enough to welcome in wine drinkers though and that is my problem with the experience. We brought our own wine and opened it ourselves but still a $15 corking fee. They did bring us a wet wine glass (no napkins). Also got a beer pitcher with ice water for chilling.
Finally, enjoying my moment in the sun sipping a Kentucky Common the Captain of Magic trying to distract me from my glory….. I reached for a slice of pita and hummus and realized my viking appetite had vanquished it hours earlier. Thankfully , the Captain of Pizza arrived with a 12” inch pie and I devoured it, greedily. I am making eye contact with you while eating pizza- are you intimidated?Complaining bitterly to the management there is no axe throwing games here.

Best brews and braggots, superior staff, authenticity in their brewing, their historic building, and their dog-friendly biergarten. Delicious fare with the option of bringing in your own. Highly recommended.

We stopped in here a couple weekends ago when we were staying in Ypsi. We were looking up pet friendly breweries and decided to drive a little further out to try it and I'm glad we did! The outdoor patio is so beautiful and has lots of flowers, bushes, trees, etc. They have several fire pits, large tables for big groups, and smaller tables for couples or a small group of friends. We ordered quite a lot of different beers to try since we were only in town from Indy for the weekend and they were all very good! My fiancé ran across the street to pick up a pizza from Bourbons since they do not serve food, so it was nice to be able to bring in something yourself. We stayed on the patio for about 4 hours enjoying the weather and beers with our dogs and had a great time. We will definitely be back!

We got served by Anthony and boy did he SERVE! A wonderful guy with a wonderful laugh and smile and I will come again!I had a Dubbel and I highly recommend it to all! The braggots were also tasty and nice. The beer garden is a nice space that provides lots of room and feels surprisingly private. The bathrooms were spotless and nicely decorated. Great time and I'll be back every time I'm in Brighton
