Breweries, Distilleries, Wine and Spirits

Some would argue that Kalamazoo is most famous for its craft beer scene; home to Bell's Brewery and their 3 time award-winning Two Hearted Ale, the nationally celebrated and unofficial Kalamazoo holidays that are Bell's Oberon Day and Eccentric Day, and so much more.

Here in Kalamazoo you can sample flights of beer or hard cider in an old church at Texas Corners Brewing, or cheer with your friends over sips of an Oatbama Stout or Sherbert Hoover Ale at Presidential Brewing. If beer isn't your thing, no worries. Our distilleries and craft cocktail bars (along with their makers) are a vibrant culture of their own.
