Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I am so NOT a beer snob! I like a nice cold Pacifico, not these heavier brews at these local joints! NOT ANYMORE! This place not only makes beer, it makes soda. Some great soul has fused the two together. Try a Cherry Wit with homemade cola....a cherry coke. Try an Orange Shandy...orange pop. Wow! Love it! You don't have to get them fused, but finally a brewery for a non-beer lover like me! Great after dinner beers when you get them mixed. This place really doesn't offer food, but they welcome you to order from local joints that deliver, and love that you bring food in. Maybe food there will come later. It is very casual and I just love the place.

Nice place. You can play bocce in the back yard. There are board games inside.
Beer is good and cheap compared to other breweries.
I like the atmosphere.
Staff was been pleasant.

Parking isn't a problem. Nice that they allow you to bring food or have food delivered.

Arclight is now one of my favorite breweries in Michigan, especially because they aren't yet distributing so it is very special. We stopped kind of on accident after stopping in a nearby winery when they recommended it and boy were we happy. Their beers were great, the atmosphere with picnic tables, lots of board and card games and a few excellent places nearby for takout food that they let you bring in, you almost can't ask for anything more. Our favorite beers were Hail to the Darkness and Cherry Wit but many were excellent! We will be back for sure.

We stopped in to try the beers. We ordered the flight, which was 6 beers. They charged more for Barrel Aged beers, but didn’t mark which ones those were on the menu. A little irritating when you think you’re ordering a stout and it’s actually barrel aged. The atmosphere was decent. If you like sour beers, they have quite a variety. They aren’t our thing, so I can’t speak to the quality.

Definitely not the beers we used to experience when visiting. We havent been since 2022. It appears their brewer moved on. Too bad as this was a great local staple, and loved the space.
Literally neither one of us finished our beer.

I've been anticipating the opening as they have converted the old car dealership into the brewery. We stopped in on a hot Saturday night, the outdoor seating was full and the large interior had seating. The large glossy cement bar is very long, with a view of the vats in the rear. They had fans blazing, since there is no air conditioning, at least it was not on. We started with their ales, which were very good. Then the Scottish Rudder, which was outstanding. At that point, I wished they served food. The only items they have are cupcakes and nuts. You can bring in your own food and order from local restaurants. But there's not many to choose from. The last two beers we tried were the Lemon and Orange Shandy---WOW. Very tasty, almost addicting. They both had incredible flavors. I am glad they have small 4 oz glasses to start with. No beer was disappointing. And it is inexpensive. I wish them the best, and hope they add food soon. Watervliet and Coloma need the help.

I really enjoyed this brewery. It's probably my favorite. The beer is very good and reasonable priced. The atmosphere is very relaxed. I love the bocce court. The food trucks add a great chance to try different food. Will go again. I really like the velvet elvis beer they have but look forward to trying others.

Fun little brewery! The beer and soda was really good, the staff was friendly, and it was a great end to our day of wine tasting.

Like many newer brewpubs, Arclight does not have any food menu. When we were there (Saturday ~1:30 pm) there was a food truck in the parking lot, but no one operating it. the brew pub is a nice place to grab a pint or two and chat with some friends.
The beer is good and the atmosphere is also good. They have bocci ball and frisbee golf on their back patio.
Nice place!

With breweries popping up all over, it is great to see such diversity in offerings under one roof. From their Velvet Elvis peanut butter and banana porter, to Moe's IPA bringing a early taste of summer to the Midwest, or tour the multiple takes on their Opus series of sours (including cherry, strawberry, and rhubarb) this is a stop worth making. I will definitely be back.
