"If you're a fan of handcrafted beer, check out Batch Brewing. They've combined outstanding food along with a great selection of their homemade brews. Seriously, even if you're not into beer, come here for the food - the pasties, bolillos and even the pretzels are noteworthy. This location is Detroit's first Nano brewery and utilize local ingredients to create their one of a kind brews. Beer hall vibe that's quickly becoming a neighborhood favorite." - Michelle & Chris Gerard
"This Corktown brewery and biergarten is a true neighborhood staple, offering a rotating selection of a dozen draft beers, along with hard cider from its sister brand Nascent Cider, plus wine, cocktails, and nonalcoholic options — including a housemade prebiotic soda. Instead of a traditional mug club, the brewery offers yearly memberships to its United Federation of Eaters and Drinkers. On the food side, Melway Burgers pops up on Mondays and Tuesdays, serving grass-fed smash burgers, while the rest of the week features a menu by Brendon Edwards that includes hand-twisted pretzels, smoked chicken wings, and a variety of other dishes cooked low and slow. Batch’s food truck, Yellow Dog BBQ, also makes special appearances on select days, offering smoked sandwiches on homemade bread. Online ordering and delivery are available." - Courtney Burk

"This Corktown brewery is a destination among beer fans. The beer garden keeps a rotating list of brews on tap, ranging from West Coast IPAs and Mexican and German lagers, to hard ciders, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages. The kitchen features a regular menu that’s been leaning into barbecue as of late. Pop-ups are also a frequent occurrence at Batch, such as the popular Melway Burgers, which as of early 2025, have been making weekly appearances on Monday and Tuesday evenings. The brewery offers expansive outdoor seating under an open-air pavilion, as well as communal indoor seating, where diners can gather in groups or sit solo at the bar and take in the spacious, semi-industrial space." - Serena Maria Daniels
"A community-focused brewery in Corktown celebrating its 10th anniversary. Known for its innovative adaptations during the pandemic, it has become a vital part of the local service industry scene." - Serena Maria Daniels
