9 Best Craft Breweries near Pontiac

“I highly recommend Fillmore 13 Brewery! We had our company team outing there and everything was phenomenal. The food was yummy. The service was top notch. The beer and cocktails were sublime. A great time was had by all! Special shout out to Kira for the absolute best service I've experienced hosting a team outing. Thank you!“

“Great place to spend time with great people.“

“This was my second time there and I hope to have many more. It’s quickly becoming one of my all time favorites. The pulled pork and the hanger steak are outstanding. Sweet potato tater tots and even the potato wedges are also excellent. The beers are interesting too, though I’ve yet to find a favorite.“

“Always consistently good beer, food, and service. We stop in whenever we're in town.“

“We hosted my daughters baby shower at the Hilltop. The venue was great, lots of space for our 65+ guests that attended. They pulled out all the stops to make sure we had plenty of room to set up. I appreciate all the hard work from the servers, bartenders and managers. You made the day nothing less than perfect!!“

“My father and I went in today for the 5 year celebration and our server Tajma was amazing. She knew the beers like the back of her hand and we had a great conversation about local breweries and beers we are huge fans of! Keep up the great work. Also the wings were phenomenal honey sirracha delicious, and the platter had so much amazing stuff we had to take a lot home! We will be back.“

“We recently had a road rally and this was one of our stops. The owner is awesome and didn't mind the traffic. We had coffees and snacks while there and have stopped in for ice cream and shakes in the past. There are tons of beer selections and cozy seating to hang out.“

“On Memorial Day weekend I decided my knowledge of local breweries was woefully deficient so I set out to fix that. I'd driven by Blue Skies repeatedly, time to go inside.
The artwork is all airplane-related, photos of DC-3s/C-47s mainly with some cockpit pics and one from a 50s movie of a pilot getting a kiss (on the cheek, of course). There's even a large scale model hanging in the keg cooler.
The weather was such that everyone was sitting outdoors right by the road. I chose the quieter, empty indoors.
The music, 70s & 80s soft rock & pop, played at a respectful volume, audible but not intrusive.
The beer is very good, the service is excellent.
The food menu looks very nice but the Cuban sandwich is better phrased as Cuban-inspired. Got the roast beef & onion. Not a bad panini but nothing special really. The cherry BBQ chips from Great Lakes were very good.

Parking: Watch where you park, some spaces have one hour limits, others do not.
