A new take on the classic lager that was first brewed by GRBC in 1893. light-bodied, crisp carbonation, and a clean finish with a pilsner quality you’re used to.
A tribute to the screaming eagle of soul, Charles Bradley. Dark chocolate Ecuadorian cocao nibs, earthy, Last Mile Café Blueprint coffee, a Rwandan dark, joins a toasted coconut presence.
Tropical fruit & white wine grape aromas from Thiolized lager yeast strain. Czech Saaz and New Zealand Nelson Sauvin hops make a hoppier than most but still crushable lager.
A dry finishing, chocolatey, roasty Irish stout. Creamy nitro mouthfeel with a pleasant hint of hops on the tail end of each sip. It really is beer though!

About the brewery
On January 1, 1893, six local breweries joined forces and opened Grand Rapids Brewing Co. Over the next two decades, they built a monumental brewery at the corner of Michigan Street and Ionia Avenue, what is now the site of a state office building. Capitalizing on the location’s ample supply of fresh spring water and a refreshingly drinkable flagship beer, Silver Foam, GRBC became one of Midwest’s largest and best-known breweries. In 1920, Prohibition brought that success story to a crashing halt. When the bans on alcohol production and sales were lifted, GRBC merged with several other breweries and eventually left town. In 2012, Mark Sellers, founder of BarFly Ventures and owner of three other area bars, brought GRBC to downtown Grand Rapids, just 6 blocks from its original location. Today’s GRBC opened on December 5, 2012, 79 years to the day after the repeal of Prohibition.
