Brighton's Brewery Becker to open July 3rd!

5mins from my parents house = nice!!!

 

Yet another I want to hit up.

 

So, has anyone hit the place up yet? your thoughts? Here are mine, please note, I know its early..I know a bunch of bugs and kinks need to be worked out..I will go back...

1. Was completely, and totally understaffed..Tables were dirty and they did not come to pick up glasses from any table while we were there..Tons of empty glasses, we had to sit at a table with 15 empty glasses and no one came to get them the whole time we were there

2. IMO, I hate that they do the "Bells" thing and you have to wait in line to get a beer..Took forever to get a beer..

3. They do NOT offer flights..This is absolutely absurd..

4. I tried 4 beers..The American IPA, English IPA, Hefe, and saison...
American IPA - Not very good, very light hop flavor and taste
Hefe - Was OK at best...
Saison - awful imo
English IPA - Was pretty darn good..Best by far

5. I did not see any food at the time, but I guess they have a food truck come bye

6. The outside beer garden looks promising, could be the place to sit while there...

They have a lot to work out when compared to Rivers Edge which just opened as well..Was a night and day between both

 

I stop

I stopped by on Saturday and had a few of the same issues. I was told that they didn't have flights because they haven't gotten the right glasses yet. Kinda odd if you ask me. I also thought it was weird that they didn't have a beer listthat gave descriptions of the beer. I did see a food menu which was limited but did sound good. The food truck that comes by is damn good. It's run by The Wooden Spoon restaurant in Brighton. I only had two beers. The American IPA which I thought was pretty bland and the Saison that I thought was good. I hope they get their growing pains out of the soon. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the beers. Really hoping this place turns out to be good because it's very close to my house. They did do a fantastic job on the building. The place looks very good and the beer garden looks like it will be top notch also.

 

Holy moly...they must've sunk a lot of cheese into that joint.

 

The building was built in the late 1800s or something like that. I cant imagine how much they had to put into it.

 

From what I was told, it was North of 3 mill...

 

The beer is solid. The building is awesome. Wouldn't mind a little music or something but if you are with friends, you can have nice conversation. The Beer garden is pretty cool. The Brighton/Howell area will have 3 new breweries in the next couple months. Will be nice to have some options and maybe a little healthy competition.
