Description
We brew and serve beer, kombucha, cider, mead and wine. We currently offer two rotating charcuterie boards options. One meat friendly and one vegetarian.
We have a steady flow of food trucks/pop-ups serving delicious grub six nights per week (NOW OPEN 7 DAYS). We also allow you to bring in outside food if you’d like. Order up a pizza and head on up! Our full schedule of events is available on the Facebook events page.
Our goal as a neighborhood focused brewery is to serve the local community first, one pint at a time. Right now, the products we make are only served onsite. As we grow, we may end up choosing to distribute but for now we are limited to special events only. We do some canning/bottling runs throughout the year and are planning to increase our frequency this year.
Growlers are available to-go as well as on-site consumption of beer and kombucha in various sizes in our tasting room. We brew on a small scale, helping us keep the beer incredibly fresh, constantly rotating but with a diverse range of styles.
At Urbanrest, we’re flavor explorers on the path to enlightenment. Madly in love with fermentation and all the amazing flavors that go along with it. We’re very fortunate to be a part of a community that embraces our pursuit and appreciate you all joining us on this journey.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a mostly clear gold with a full 2 fingers of fluffy, white foam that lingers. Lovely saison yeast nose with banana, clove and peppercorn. As it warms some tropical fruit and grapefruit aromas come out, but the yeast is the star. Light bodied saison, with nice fruity esters and flavors, with some dried honey and peppercorn on the finish. Very nice, just wish more MI brewers took the time to make nice saisons like this.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a deep honey gold with some light haze and a small off-white head that dissipates quickly. Honeyed bread and sesame crackers on the nose. Full bodied on the palate with a nice round mouthfeel. More of the same flavors on the palate, with a nice peppercorn note that lingers.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of white foam. Lovely passionfruit and pineapple forward nose. A bit of pine, pith and tropical fruit skin on the palate with more passionfruit and pineapple. Light and crushable, with nice NE IPA notes, but in a lighter package. Love the hops on this one. Classic kiwi hops.
