Description
We are committed to creating a cultural bonfire through modern craft beer, music, and art to bring us all together.

We believe breweries have always been an essential part of a community’s culture. Our passion is fueled by the many beers across this planet that continue to inspire us. We focus on collaboration, creativity, and quality craftsmanship. We partner with the resilient farmers of Michigan who provide the grains and hops that ignite the signature character of our beers. During this unique time, we want to share the Mothfire spirit, from our cans to your home, and hopefully soon through art, music, and live events at our taproom.

Can from 8 Degrees Plato. Pours a murky orange brown gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Peach, stone fruit and muted tropical fruit on the nose. Lowish carbonation, well-rounded mouthfeel, but muted flavors on the palate as well. Kind of sloppy, but flavors are enjoyable.
