642 Railroad Pl, Traverse City, MI 49686, USA

The Filling Station Microbrewery is a vibrant destination where creativity seeps into every brew. Located on Railroad Place in Traverse City, MI, our menu is a love letter to handcrafted beers – featuring IPAs as bold as a Trans-Siberian railway, stouts that feel like a fireside chat, and sours that burst with tropical fruit. We don't just stop at the ordinary; experiment with innovative ingredients or barrel-aging for those extra layers of complexity. Our Bourbon Barrel Stout, aged in oak barrels from Iron Fish Distillery, offers nutty bourbon and smooth vanilla notes. For those preferring lighter, we have accessible lagers reminiscent of a crisp, snowy day in the Rockies. Community is as vital as grains and hops – a portion of Piper’s Porter sales supports the Cherryland Humane Society. Our Mug Club and hop-tastic IPA selections make us the go-to craft haven for beer enthusiasts. Sip, explore, and let every delicious drop recount our commitment to quality and craft.
