Another place highly recommended by the Michiganers. OK, so it’s in a mini-stripmall-esque building. The place is small but has a nice atmosphere. We were there on a Friday and enjoyed the live music. The food is pretty limited; get the burger, it’s a double for $3 or the cheese platter. Service was exceptional! But let’s talk beer. Dragonmead has an astounding 40 beers on tap. When have you ever seen a micro brew (or anyone) who does 40 beers well? You don’t. For the most part, the beer is not memorable. We sampled the Kolsch, Pale, Porter, Pils, Bitter, Dortmunder, Wheat, Stout, Trippel, just to name a few, but let’s not forget their pepper beer, the Ring of Fire. The beers aren’t bad, just bland. The samplers are not a bargain at $10 for 5 six-ish oz samplers, but you get a pretty placemat. If you like flavorful, full-bodied, robust beers, this is not your place; if you plan to stay all night and drink about 12 pints, then this is the place for you. My suggestion to Dragonmead, pick 8 beers to brew well, and stop trying to brew every single style known to man.

Obviously wins the gold medal for most extensive selection at a brewpub. So many to choose from, several visits are in order to find all your favorites. I tried a sampler, which only scratched the surface of the 38 that were available during my visit. Both casks (Hemp Ale and Lionheart) were true to style and very drinkable. Honey Porter very English, very nice. ESB could have used a bit more flavor for my liking. Crown Jewels a very accessable American IPA. Didn't have the bottled product I wanted, but did find it later on my trip. Hey guys, how about a sampler of more beers, even if it means a slightly shorter pour? We foreigners don't get your way very often! A must stop for all beer nuts.

Stopped in while traveling and was pleasantly suprised by the quantity and variety of house brews on tap. I recommend the sampler of 6 to get you started. I worked my way through most of the German and Belgium brews as well as some American and English Ales. All were excellent and true to form. The Alt was very close to counterparts I have had in Germany. This place concentrates on the beer not the food but the cheeseburger was good. You can also bring your own food in or have local takout delivered. I sat at the bar where the service was excellent, thanks Kim!, and it was easy to stike up conversation with the local regulars. Overall an awesome time and I will definitely be back!

I myself have only been to dragonmead a hand full of times, but only because i have just recently started going. This is by far the best microbrew i've been in. The greastest beers i've ever tasted, only to be matched by the greatest service i've ever had. From day one, the staff has been fun to be around, and very personable. In fact i find it somewhat ironic that somebody from gpf would call them haughty. No offense to you other pointers out there. And I strongly recommend the Under the Kilt Wee Heavy. Its worth every penny.

This is an unusual joint. It's hard to find as it's in aindustrial strip mall on a serivce drive. But you should FIND IT!!!!! About 25+ beers on tap, all made here and they are spectacular. Everything a beer connessiour could dream of. Ales, lagers, German, English, American, multiple IPAs, Belgians aplenty, stouts and porters. You cannot try them all in one sitting. And these folks don't understand beer under 5% volume. No food here, bring your own. The atmosphere is not the best, a little quiet most of the times I've been here, but it's quaint. And if you are a beer connessiour, you'll find 3 out of 4 people sitting around you are as well. I can't boast enough about this place, or should I say their beer. They are also starting to bottle and you can find their beer around SE Michigan. Final Absolution is the best, a Belgian style blonde at about 8%, but it doesn't even bite. If you can't find a beer here to make you happy, you're way too finicky...

Great selection but on some lines it seems they're more interested in counting taps than differentiating the product. For example, I had a sampler of similar English ales. Realistically, keep two and forget the rest -- hardly an difference between the six. Their Belgians are the best followed by their Germans. Pricey! The female staff behind the bar often cop this haughty attitude that comes from where, I don't know and I'm not the only one in drinking circles who notices this. It's closer to me than either Kuhnhenn's or Fort Street but I wont' be back because of price and service.

I would like to point out something about the brewing staff at Dragonmead. Kim was a great member of the staff for 2 years, but the reviewer from Grosse Pointe neglected Jeff Levine as brewer. He was a brewer for 5 years with Dragonmead. Jeff, Erik and Kim all brewed together at one time. The person who stated they knew Kim was gone would have tasted beers Kim would have made. It takes far more time for the effects to have been felt. Jeff has since gone to another brewery and still regulars Dragonmead. They put out a great product. Hazzah to Erik and Dragonmead.

Wow! I tip my hat (and maybe my cod piece) to this place! I am still trully speachless! Never in my life have I seen or tasted such variety! Imagine having an entire high end beer store on draft. Awesome.

I went about a week ago and they had something like 34 beers on tap. I had about 7 different samples and all of them are good. One of the best barley wines ive had was there. .99 cent nachos but nothing but bar food really besides that. Im going again for sure.
