Yep, everything has gone to the dogs here. I’m not a huge dog fan, but the décor was interesting to look at while I waited awhile for my beer/food to arrive. The large Scooby Doo was the winner and the mug club mugs are way up there, I wonder how often they get used. Nine house beers on tap and large pours on the sampler, I had to pace myself on the sampler and couldn’t finish the whole thing. Beer ranged from above average to so-so and the food was respectable. Much like their fellow Grand Haven neighbor Odd Side, they make some unique beers.

Very good food and selection of beers. My service was terrible, but I was only there once and I do not know if that is normal.

I had to give the ambiance full points because of the theme, DOGS! I am a dog lover, and every inch is covered in pictures of dogs. It is a really impressive brewpub, recommend to me from the owner of Odd Side Ales, which is about 2 miles away. I tried a Toffee beer and tried their Golden Sour, and got a pint of Brown. They were all decent, the sour being the most unusual. Worth a stop if you are going a West Coast MI beer tour, but don’t go out of your way.

Much larger than I anticipated. Seems to focus more on the food than beer, nevertheless, the beer is high quality. About 7 of the OBB brews on draft, mostly basic styles, but all very good. I had a pizza which was very good. They have a large patio that overlooks the river. A cool place to stop if you are in the area.

Had a wedding rehearsal dinner here years ago and they have not changed much in a decade or so. Patio on the water is great and they have an interesting rotation of brews and food specials (for example, you don’t see Michigan blue gill on menus much). Their beer is average. It’s not bad, and they check all the right boxes with the styles they attempt, but with so many brewpubs out their you need a signature beer to differentiate yourself these days. That they do not have. Nice place to eat and have a beer if you find yourself in the Michigan West Coast area (Muskegon, Grand Haven, Holland, Spring Lake, etc.)

Highlight is outdoor deck on the water. Decent brews, but pretty standard selection. Food is average. Prices are reasonable.

i stopped in on a saturday as part of a michigan beer road trip with rayboy01, bryan and mike. great service from a very busy (i originally mistyped this as ’busty’ but that a whole other story) bartender, who had time to talk about the beer occassionally. not a large selection, but worth the stop. i also bought a growler of their special spicy bloody mary mix which i haven’t tried yet. if i like that. maybe i’ll kick up the review. i’ll stop in again if i am ever in the neighborhood.

Everytime I’ve been in there it’s been packed. Which is good for them, but bad for me. Food takes forever. Beer isn’t that great. This place probably wouldn’t servive if it weren’t for the location, right on the water and close to a yacht club...

Located south of Muskegon off highway. Not easy to spot. Biulding is large brick with 80% with table set for food and 20% in bar area. Beer selection was their brews and macros. If you are doing the tourist thing driving the coast to the north, I would stop 30 miles south or 60 miles north.
