Loki - was a delightful blend of sweet blueberry and tart cherry, at the end.\ Dark Angel - had a dark blueberry sweetness with a ginger finish that was a tasty treat. Holy Grail - Had a sweet start and a dry finish that would rock with a PB & J sandwich. The Maple - special was full-flavored and a bit earthy and made me think of fall. Will be back to play the table games.

One of the new breweries in Kalamazoo's is Valhalla on Miller. Turning into the parking lot, I…read moreremembered it was previously an automotive business and I am so glad to see that the building is being used to help better Kalamazoo with another brewery. Walking in the area is open and still in need of work but you can see they are working towards that currently. We reviewed the menu and learned that this was a Meadery at heart. We didn't know this previously but think it is great because there not many of them, let alone in Kalamazoo. We scanned through the tap list and picked out 4 to try and sat down. The owner was sitting at another table with someone that sounded like somewhat of an interview. After a little while he got up and came over to our table and asked if he could sit down with us and show us the vision for the brewery. We welcomed him to join us, we really love talking with beertenders and owners when they have passion in what they do. He had a book with photos of his vision which is going to be Viking based (the name makes that obvious) with some Thor inspiration. You could hear his passion and love for the brewery and what he does when talking about the things to come which made it that much better. Everything looked super cool and I can't wait to see it once completed. The owner shared his past history prior to the brewery which was in films and music, Ben couldn't have related more to this man if he tried. LOL. Be sure to stop in now to try their tasty meads and then once their renovations have been completed, we will be following them on social media to see their progress.

Really disappointing experience at The Hub Tavern. The food had some bright spots--the nachos and…read morepizza were good--but the service made it hard to enjoy the meal. We asked for waters four separate times and never received them. Our drink glasses sat empty while we ate, and when we ordered Miller Lites, they were flat. They were also out of Rubaeus. Even something as simple as ketchup for the fries was lacking. We waited a long time for our server to come back so we could get plates for our pizza. Eventually, we gave up waiting and went to get the plates ourselves. What was most frustrating was watching our server focus more on end-of-shift chores than on the tables that were still there and needed service. I understand restaurants can get busy and occasionally run out of things, but having to repeatedly ask for basic items--and still not receive them--is unacceptable. Good nachos unfortunately weren't enough to make up for inattentive service, empty drinks, and flat beer.
