Visited O.S.A on a Saturday afternoon, and not many people were there, so it was nice to be able to chat with the owner/brewer. The inside is very comfy and welcoming, and the designs on the bar made of grains are awesome. So many beers to choose from, it was kind of overwhelming! I got the sampler with 1. Grapefruit Wheat 2. Sour Patch Pale Ale 3. Orange Cream Stout 4. Cherry IPA 5. Chocolate Milk Stout 6. Cinna Bun. They were all good, and very drinkable. I also ordered the Raspberry Wheat and it was delicious. I would recommend this brewpub to experienced beer geeks and people who usually drink light crappy beers.

So I kinda stumbled on this place... no, not drunk, but it was an accident to find it. I stopped in with the wife while in MI visiting family and was really jazzed up to see some of the cool stuff that Odd Side is making. I was bummed that the website was a bit behind and they didn’t have a peanut butter cup stout or a passionfruit pale anymore, but I did get to try some really unique and excellently made beer. It’s a little like the guy next door went wild with homebrew and it mostly works and you get to try it all. I think they had 16 taps plus a soda, sold growlers ($5 for glass and 13.50 for regular brews, 20 for specials if memory serves.) Food was abysmal... just a few bags of popcorn, chips, etc, but I didn’t really go there to eat. The service was excellent and I chatted with the barman for a bit. This will definitely make trips to MI more exciting... Future trips have shown that this place is for real. I bumped up ratings for ambiance (seems better now that it’s busier), service and selection. This place is getting even better and will be something I look forward to during my trips to MI.

I stumbled upon this place one day on ratebeer and I’m very glad I did. It’s tucked inside an old building they’ve turned into a mall. You could easily walk by the building and not even know there was a brewpub in there as advertising on the outside was scarce. That’s a shame, as there are probably people who would have a pint or two if they knew it was there. They don’t offer food, but bring food in from anywhere to enjoy with your beer. Lots of wood a few dartboards and the staple of the small brewpub – a stack of games. The bartender was friendly & knowledgeable and the tap list truly represents, as there were many “odd” offerings. But that’s the way I like it. Anyone can make a brown ale or stout, these guy had a peanut butter cup stout and an orange stout on tap, plus a barrel aged smoked porter… and two apple beers, several IPAs, plus a handful of other oddities. They had 14 beers on tap the day I visited, I couldn’t even try them all. Rarely does a brewpub exceed my expectations – but this one did. All the beers were fresh, most of them very good. I look forward to visiting here when in the area, and will even make it a focal point of the trip – it’s that good and fits my odd persona to a “T”.

Visited on a quiet Friday after lunch with my wife (Labor Day Weekend). Great selection of ales with 14/16 taps available and they were filling the last two as we were leaving. The pub is nicely decorated in an artsy-IKEA style with a mix of bar stools, cozy chairs and a couch. We tried a traditional Belgian Wit, Peanut Butter Cup Stout (on NITRO) and the Double Fat Bottom IPA. We were politely offered a few other samples that were also delicious and would make me happy to return again. I was told to keep an eye on local restaurant beer list’s as well; they had recently up-sized the equipment.

Found out about this little known and new brewpub from a friend. So I and another friend, along with his wife and son jumped in the car and drove down to to check it out. Got there, and there is no sign, but there are big windows and it’s quite obvious when looking in that you are at the right place. We went in and it was much busier and crowded than I was expecting. This is of course both good and bad. Good, because that usually means the beer is good. Bad, because you may have to wait to order or get a table. We were able to order quite quickly, although we never did get a table, but we didn’t really mind. The bartenders were friendly smiling and helpful. The owner/brewmaster was bartending as well. I talked to him briefly about joining the Mug club and I did join it, but he was so busy he didn’t have time to chat. Also... a little more on the Mug Club. Odd Side Ales has a deal with the "Ceramic Cafe" just down the block. You go there to design your own mug for the wall. The beer was good. I took a sip of about everything they had on tap, and didn’t hate any of it. They do some different flavor combos. There was a lot of positive talk about a peanut butter stout, but unfortunately that had run out a day earlier. I found a nice brown that I had a couple glasses of. There is no real food menu except for snacks like chips, nuts, popcorn. They do, however, allow outside food in and there are a lot of good eats within a couple block radius. Hell you could probably have a pizza delivered if you wanted. All in all we had a great time and would recommend this brewpub if you are ever in Grand Haven MI. I think Odd Side Ales will do well. I just hope they will be able to keep up with their prosperity, because I had heard that they were keeping it a low key thing for now, but that is not really an option anymore. The cat’s out of the bag.

Great spot. In an odd commercial building, and has a kind-of coffee shop feel, but neither are too big a deal, and the selection is awesome. I strongly recommend their stouts - expect em to be light and thin, but very flavorful.

Amazing little brewerie small and might can’t wait for the production facility to open

This is a chill little brewery tucked away in a brick building near the river. Beer selection is a little quirky with interesting stuff. I had a tasty pineapple IPA. There is no real food available, just some chips. They have a load of different mugs adorning the back wall perhaps for regulars. They also seem to have an affinity for the mythical jackalope which reminded me of back in TN. Cool place.

excellent new brewery located in grand haven mi. nice people, nice, casual setting with an always rotating (and very interesting/experimental) tap list. highly recommended

Small place with the brewing equipment right in the tap room. Aroma of malted barley can be smelt before you even reach the door. A good amount of beer on tap, lots of different styles. Pay what I would expect to pay for a quality ale. Nice find, I would reccomend anyone who appreciates quality unique beer to stop by this place.
