"Just in time for the raucous Hamtramck Labor Day Festival, microbrewery Florian East opened in September 2024. Owned and operated by five longtime friends, Florian East leans into its multicultural setting and ownership, with signage in six languages and locally crafted benches, bar back, and tap handles. It’s fast becoming a hub for community gatherings from the Hamtramck Queer Alliance meetups to seed swaps and book clubs. Open every day, the brewery serves ales, lagers, and porters made in-house." - Mickey Lyons
