Atwater Brewery

About

“Founded in 1997, Atwater Block Brewery made its debut in Detroit, Michigan in the historic Rivertown district. The original owner’s reasoning and focus was to bring back the Bohemian style lager that Stroh’s Brewing Company had made famous in the mid 1800’s. The passion for beer started in 1848 when the first mass produced beer was bottled in the Detroit area. So although Detroit is known for being the Motor city, at one time Michigan had more production breweries than anyone in the country. Atwater wanted to re-invent that product back in 1997 of making German style Lagers. The owners purchased a Kasper Schulz, the oldest makers of brewing equipment in the world! It was purchased at a trade show in 1996 and by 1997 Atwater was producing beer!

I must say that I like a place with a clean restroom. Atwater's restroom was spotless! The atmosphere is fairly similar to many other places I have been, industrial chic. I really loved the reclaimed wood tables, I want one for my own home now. Lots of people were there for lunch with their kids and they have a small selection of board games near the front entrance to choose from to keep them occupied.The food was great, the wife and I shared the Greek pizza, pretzel sticks, fresh baked cookies, and a couple of flights of beers. Our server, Ciara, was courteous quick and attentive without being obnoxious nor annoying. The prices are a little on the higher side but are worth the cost. The location is near enough to the waterfront park that an afternoon stroll is a good way to work off some of those calories.This is definitely a place to bring out of town guests to give them a mix of old and new Detroit.

I think it is just their fine beers & some beer based cocktails

Depends on where you live.

I do not believe so

No. She's not drinking, she's cool.

Yes

They haven't given me a specific discount before, you just don't have to pay for the growler again. It is typically cheaper to use the growler each time rather than buying a 6 pack

Yes

No...this is a business. Not home brewing
