The inside space is small but inviting and they have outdoor seating for nice days. I tried the Cucumber Basil Gimlet and it was so refreshing. Definitely the best cucumber cocktail I've ever tried and it really sold me on their summer gin! She got the Winter King which was also tasty and featured their winter gin. You can buy the bottles to go and they would make great gifts. The Jalapeño Pants was a really tasty spicy cocktail with a flavorful tahin/salt rim and featuring their fall gin. The bartenders were friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled at making their craft cocktails.

Or be here at a normal time for normal reasons, haha. Cocktails are always decent, though maybe a bit overwrought and on the sweet side. Can't say I can always taste all the ingredients they put in. Sometimes simple can be best. The N/A watermelon spritz I had didn't have much flavor. Could have used less spritz, I guess. Today specifically we came for the Tacos El Panda truck; they have great birria and we fancied a cocktail as well. In the past we also enjoyed the Juicy Oyster truck.

I was lamenting the other day to my husband how I haven't yet found a pizza place in the Ann Arbor…read morearea that has those delectable little pepperoni cups I grew up with in the pizzarias closer to Detroit. You know, the kind the curl upwards and fill up with little bits of grease that clog your arteries but make your tastebuds sing? So he made it his mission to find some options for our regular Pizza Thursday takeout. A Yelp search showed that Jolly Pumpkin in Dexter has the goods I was looking for and we placed an order that week for carryout. And yes!! The photos did not lie. Those perfect little cups were everything I had wanted and more. The cheese was nice and gooey and there's a drizzle of honey that adds a bit of sweetness to the pie. It also comes with peppers but since I wanted to enjoy just straight up pep, we left them off. My husband also ordered the bacon brussels pizza which was also quite good but we agreed that the pepperoni was the star of the show. Dexter is a bit of a drive for us for pizza so I'm not sure how often we'll be doing this but it's good to know I can fulfill my craving when it comes!

There are multiple locations and versions, and they have unique menus. The one in Ann Arbor has a…read morelarger menu. This one in Dexter has limited menu of pizzas, some sandwiches, and a few apps. After a home game, we felt this location would serve us well and it did. Of course we went right as it opened at 4pm on a Saturday. The decor and ambience are typical industrial/micro brew, with booths, tables, and high top seating. The bar is large and there is another room you can reserve for events. Speaking of the bar, you order everything at the bar and they bring it to your table. Not awful, wondering how that works when it gets busy. The beer is good. Had a Hefeweizen that had a different, crisper flavor than what you might expect, which I don't mind. It wasn't served cold, rather slightly chilled. Might be on purpose to let certain flavors through. Personally, I like beer cold. End of story. Also had their Noel seasonal. Boozy at over 9% however not too heavy or overpowering. Had sugar plum notes, which at first threw me a bit. When paired with the mushroom pizza though, I thoroughly enjoyed. Pizza is solid, nice doughy crust with some char to it. If you're looking for some good beers to try and a bit of food, I highly recommend.

This is not to mention that every single craft beer that they are selling is expired. This is not a joke. If you're seeing this and planning on going take any craft beer out of the fridge and check the expiration. Granted, I know it's beer so it won't matter much but just the lack of effort from this place and considering the steep prices just don't go here. Campus corner is right across the street, go there. As for the photo, my roommate went there yesterday and I was so confident his beers would be expired I knew I had to take a photo to prove it.

Aside from the amazing people, I loved how you are in a little haven. What you get inside is not what you think you'd get inside. I loved how cozy it was in both the bar and patio.

We rented the upstairs area as well as the back of the distillery for a sit down dinner. The space was really perfect!

Honestly, we could not have been happier. After dinner several guests shot pool and played darts. Such a pleasure to work with.
