Absolutely stunning portrait of farmhouse style beers. Some of the likes (Cascade, Jester King, Jolly Pumpkin ) are all good breweries but don’t come close to the well balanced and not offensively sourness that Barrel and Beam have to offer. Their fellow European breweries where these styles originated would wholeheartedly agree. All of this goodness coming from one of the more remote places in the United States, Barrel and Beam is truly a unique gem in an otherwise crowded market of mediocre “craft” beer that will hopefully stick around to grace our palette one and again with their stellar offerings. My Fiancé and I absolutely adore this place ❤️

I hosted a baby shower at Barrel and Beam and the service was top knotch. Very easy to schedule; amazing communication and friendly staff. Alex and the catering folks were great to work with and the food was amazing! Love working with the bartender, as well, who was very helpful supplying me with tape and a scissors when I was decorating the space. It's a great place to hold an event -- and working with the friendly staff made it even better.

We rented out the Barrel Room for our wedding reception this weekend. Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, the events team at Barrel + Beam was communicative, patient in answering our many questions, and full of ideas for problem solving. We were able to set up the night before our event which was an enormous convenience, and the space was beautiful for our intimate event (40 people total). We would definitely recommend working with Barrel + Beam for your event!

A diamond in the rough! This was The North Woods Supper Club when I was at NMU 30+ years ago. It was the place. The outside looks a little ragged, it's still really nice on the inside. Great beer, they focus on farmhouse ales and sours... but there was a lager here today. Service is Outstanding!! Love it.

Fantastic selection of drinks (beer, mead, wine, cider, etc). Very relaxing atmosphere (low noise, reminded us of a coffee house but with beer). Cute outdoor seating and 3 levels of seating indoors. Great place to grab a drink and play some board games or just relax. We look forward to coming back.
Update: we made it back to Barrel & Beam after moving to the area. It was such a warm and beautiful atmosphere. I'm so glad we have a place like this so close to us now.
