Block Brewing Company in Howell, Michigan, is a place where craft beer meets BBQ in a way that feels almost scientific. The tap list is a rotating parade of inventive brews, each one more daring than the last, while the kitchen churns out smoked meats and artisanal pizzas that could make a seasoned chef blush. If you’re not in the mood to sit still, the brewery offers howlers and growlers for on‑the‑go sipping, plus a house‑crafted hard seltzer called Block Water that delivers a crisp, refreshing twist without any pretentious garnish (the kind of thing that makes you forget your diet).
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword here: spent grains are diverted to local farms as animal feed, and every ingredient is sourced nearby, so each pint supports the community as much as it satisfies the palate. The outdoor area is surprisingly spacious and spotless, perfect for enjoying the weather, and the staff are consistently friendly, making the whole experience feel less like a transaction and more like a well‑run soirée. In short, Block Brewing delivers quality, variety, and a hearty dose of down‑to‑earth charm that any beer lover can appreciate.
Reviewers praise the brewery's welcoming atmosphere, with comfortable seating options both indoors and outdoors. Food is highlighted as a standout, with tender BBQ meats, gooey cheese, and flavorful sauces. Service is described as friendly and attentive.
