I’m sure we’ve been to over a hundred breweries, in a dozen countries or more including France, Germany and Belgium), and Biere de Mac Brew Works in Mackinaw City Michigan is for sure one of the best. Specializing in traditional French and Belgian styles, they have one of the most accomplished and diverse in-house tap lists that we’ve come across. There were no misses, and there menu is the perfect compliment with various smoked meat options and a smoked whitefish dip that is darn near worth trip on its own. The brewers are a trio of mad scientists that are pushing some seriously delicious pints. It’s just off the interstate, nestled in a woody area, and I’m sure the grounds are just as inviting as the beer hall and service were inside. Biere de Mac Brew Works for the win. Literally, as they’ve won many awards, including Michigan’s beer of the year.

Excellent beer and the panini was great. The bartender was very friendly and it looks like they have a cool extended patio in the back. The inside wasn’t super cozy and the music was down really low so it felt kind of awkward but I think they were watching a game at the bar. Either way we really enjoyed our visit!

We stopped in at Bière de Mac on our way to the UP. Located off I-75 exit 337, this unassuming little brewery is simply amazing! Their beers are unique and incorporate the traditions of French and Belgian ales. The food menu is small, but the offerings are tasty and quality is top tier. We tried a flight of 6 beers and the Montréal brisket sandwich, and wow were we blown away by how good everything tasted! The staff was super friendly and welcoming too.

In Mackinaw City for a few days and needed something different. This microbrewery has a French twist. Atmosphere is great and so was the beer!! I’ve never seen a Latvian farmhouse ale at any other microbrewery we have visited and we’ve been to a lot in many different states. Had a great flight and then tried two additional pours. If you are in or near Mackinaw City or the island and like great beer, do not miss this place!! It’s locally owned by members of a family who’ve been here for hundreds of years! We will be back!!

Had a fantastic experience at this beer spot near Mackinac City! 🍻 The beer menu might be limited, but the quality is top-notch. Surprisingly, the food options were limited too, but what they offered was absolutely delicious. The patio, complete with a bonfire area, made for a cozy evening. Ample free parking and quick, friendly service sealed the deal for us. A hidden gem worth checking out! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Suggestion: Wish they had more sharable food options, would make this place more amazing.
