Drífa Brewing Company

 

 

We stopped here to try their beers. The brewery is located just off US-41, contrary to what GPS was saying was farther down the street. There is a parking lot in front, and a side-yard beer garden. The bar was just inside the door and has about 10 stools. A good number of tables/chairs will hold a good-sized crowd. Service was ordering at the bar. The brewing equipment was located to the rear of the pub, and the vibe was fairly typical for a brewpub. Several TVs were on the walls.

We ordered a sampler flight of 8 of the 9 available beers. (Additionally there were two in-house seltzers and three guest ciders.) All but one of the beers were 6% abv or less, but that didn't cause for a lack of flavor in them, although I thought the Oktoberfest was just a tad light-tasting at 5.6%. Notably, the cream ale was full of flavor (5.6%), contrary to what I experience in most cream ales. Overall the beers were brewed very well to style and scored just under 4.0 in our rating system.

No food is served here but bagged snacks are available, and several wines can be ordered for the non-beer drinkers. Crowlers are available for beer to-go. The beers are very good here so it is a place that I'll stop again when in the area.

Hidden little brewery with good beer and good service. Alot of outdoor seating set up in the grass with tents. Indoor seating with many windows. If this place was more centralized Instead of on the edge of town i think it would have been alot more packed than it was. But definitely can pack in alot of people, even with COVID. I would put this at top 3 breweries in Marquette and would go out of my way to visit when in town.
