There are many elements that go into making a successful brewery. Building a brand, creating a good atmosphere in your taproom, employing a staff that connects to the community and countless other variables that go into building a reputable company.  One of those things that can not be ignored is having a solid flagship beer that, for lack of better wording, keeps the lights on.

Spring is here! The change of seasons in northern states is always a good thing. People start to transition from heavy coats and boots and start living day to day a bit more comfortably.  Around this time of year a lot of people’s beer tastes change too and starts to move towards something a little lighter. Those who like to be out and about need a good beer to accommodate the change in season. This is the time of year where the store shelves start…

Professional Pilsner from the Drafting Table; Wixom, MichiganSometimes in the craft beer world we need a break from pushing every boundary, There’s a million different flavors of IPA out there, stouts that have been aged in practically every barrel imaginable, and sour beers that still manage to make even the most avid beer drinker say “they put THAT in a beer?”.  To me Pilsner is the reset button, it’s a style of beer that is often forgotten about by the community as a whole but…

It’s early February and in true Michigan form we have an idiotic amount of snow on the ground (about 13 inches) with more on the way.  On a positive note however, the Winter Olympics are on and the lousy weather sets the perfect stage to bunker down, have a few beers, and avoid going outside as much as possible.  There are many things you will need in order to properly hibernate and enjoy watching the worlds best athletes compete for gold.  At the top of…

John Fahrner

Drafting Table Brewing Co., located in Wixom, Michigan Five days a week I make my daily drive home from Ann Arbor Michigan back to the small town of Wolverine Lake Michigan.  On that journey I typically find myself getting off the highway at Milford road and taking my commute up Pontiac Trail from the city of Milford into Wixom.  Normally I do this to just take myself off the highway and enjoy a more relaxing drive, then sometime late in the summer of 2015 a sign…
