Book your group We love hosting events. We would be the perfect place for you to throw yourself a birthday bash, celebrate a work milestone, or have the most epic party ever just ’cause. Holiday party season books up fast. Bring the office, the team or the whole family to the taproom in November and December. We handle the food, pour our own craft beer, hard cider, Michigan wine and non-alcoholic options, and you skip the cleanup. No filibuster required. Friday and Saturday dates go first, so reach out early. Long tables run down the taproom. The corner holds a couch, chairs, and the counter. Stools line the bar. A private rental can add the beer garden when the course is open. There is no private room inside, unless you rent the beer garden or close the taproom with it. A smaller group can still sit together. 13–40 Community picnic tables inside, or the lower patio. Upper patio tables stay out of the reservation. No rental fee and no minimum spend. Corner The northwest corner, with the lounge: couch, chairs, and the counter. In season, the beer garden lounge is the other option. Capacity Inside, 106 seats plus 15 at the bar. Outside, 200 standing, 80 at tables, and 10 at the outdoor bar. Catering is available at 20 guests and required at 40. From 25 to 40, the shorter groups menu is required so the kitchen can get plates out. A busy date can require that menu even for a smaller group. A private rental always uses the catering menu. You can rent the beer garden, or the taproom and the beer garden together. A minimum spend applies. Food and drinks count toward it. Whatever you do not spend is the rental fee. We add 20% gratuity, and that gratuity does not count toward the minimum. Mini golf is included when the course is open. Drink tokens are available if you want to cap what the group spends. Seasonal.
