8 Best Craft Breweries in Traverse City

“We stopped in for lunch the other day! The nachos and blue gill tacos were great! Cute spot! Great service…we don’t mind the scan to order or ordering at the bar!“

“This place is awesome, has a great vibe, and super cool atmosphere. The ramen station is something I'd never seen before and I can't wait to try it next time!

Also, anyone who leaves 1-star because a pride flag hurt their fragile feelings is better off (for everyone) going somewhere that can comfort their insecurity and reassure them how special they are. It's really amazing that something as benign as that hanging on the wall is enough to remove the people absolutely nobody wants to be around anyway. What a great superpower the pride flag wields. 🏳️‍🌈“

“Great brews and friendly staff! What could be better except free beer 🙄🤩“

“Fantastic new microbrewery, serving up interesting, well crafted brews, local ciders and wines. Plenty of NA options too. Staff were friendly, knowledgeable, engaging. Beautiful, well thought out space and branding. Overall, excellent experience. Can’t wait to visit again.“

“Earthen Ales is a pleasant place to enjoy a beer. I stopped by to try a flight of beers and really enjoyed their darker ales. It feels pretty casual and welcoming, and I like how it’s kind of hidden away back there. I’ll have to look out for their beers in my neck of the woods.“

“What a fun find! Right Brain Brewery tap room has a super cool, laid-back vibe with plenty of character.
The beers are excellent, we especially loved Free Play and Social Probation. We enjoyed a couple of pints while munching on some tasty appetizers that hit the spot.
The best part for our family? The arcade games! There are tons of them, and they kept our kids happily entertained the entire time.
Friendly staff, a welcoming atmosphere, and a perfect mix of craft beer and family fun. If you’re looking for a brewery that works for both adults and kids, go to Right Brain Brewing.“

“For a town with many beer options… Silver Spruce offers varieties not usually done well in MI as well as mitten classics.

They ALWAYS hit their flavor profile target for what they’re making and the staff is talented, knowledgeable and super-friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Great product with unique flavor. Love finding it locally!“
