HOMES Brewery<\/a> is the place to be any day of the year, as the massive outdoor beer garden is equipped with shade sails for warm days and fire pits for cold ones. The name HOMES carries a lot of meaning, but is mainly the acronym for the names of the Great Lakes (Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie and Superior). HOMES focuses on hoppy and sour beers, but they venture outside of those styles periodically. They keep about 8-14 beers on tap, depending on their production capacity, in addition to options for non-beer-drinkers, like hard seltzer smoothies, locally sourced spirits, wine and cider. Pair your drink of choice with something from their food menu, which is focused on Asian-influenced street food. HOMES allows well-behaved dogs in the beer garden as long as they are leashed and attended to by their owner. In fact, HOMES is so dog-friendly that they have an entire Instagram page<\/a> dedicated to their furriest patrons!<\/p>\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n Wolverine State Brewing Co.<\/a> is a haven for both beer enthusiasts and dog lovers alike.
