Hopcat - Grand Rapids, MI

With so many seemingly good stops in Grand Rapids following the advise of the desk clerk from the hotel was our only idea. His favorite spot is Hopcat is downtown, a freshly revived downtown. This local legend is a hot spot for good food, a HUGE variety of brews and good music. Their 48 active tabs and rotating nightly specials left us with a heavy task, what is choose. I think we did alright even with one from a local brewery that we plan to visit on our next trip. My advise let the server know what you like and ask them to pick, plus tip well.


Grassroots Saison - Great Lakes Brewing Co.; Josh thought this was the perfect way to start and will add it to the list of try again

Mad Hatter - New Holland Brewing Co

Hop Rocket, Arcadia Ales

St. Louis Framboise - Brouwerij Van Honsebrouck N.V; Very berry baby, liked it was one was enough

Bavarian Bliss - Arbor Brewing Co; This is from a local brewery that we will revisit

Red's Rye - Founders; Another local we will review
