Grand Rapids' first craft distillery; The finest locally-sourced ingredients, fermented and distilled honestly, creating spirits of uncompromising quality. Cocktails, small-bites, and bottles-to-go, proudly served in the neighborhood we call home. Established in 2014. Before we made the spirits, we made a decision. For us, it was a simple one--take no shortcuts. That meant using honest ingredients grown across the region. It meant crafting every batch from start to finish. And it meant taking a road that many seem to avoid. From that point forward, we've been on journey to develop spirits worthy of people's admiration. We don't source spirits, we source ingredients--the way it was meant to be done. An approach like ours has been a long time coming.

B.O.B.’s Brewery (est. 1997) is the first microbrewery to open in downtown Grand Rapids. For over 20 years, the brewery's philosophy has remained grounded in its core values: quality ingredients, time-honored brewing techniques, small-batch beers, and nuanced flavor profiles. A high school science teacher turned brewmaster, "Brewer John" Svoboda could be called the Walter White of the West Michigan brewing scene. John has a passion for traditional German beer styles and a talent for creating unique one-offs. The scale of B.O.B.’s Brewery allows John the opportunity to take some risks. With risk comes reward in the form of outstanding beer like Peanut Butter Porter, Tiramisu Stout, & Hoptics Gosé. Fittingly, the brewery resides in the cellar of The B.O.B.–and like a good stout–the space is eclectic, comfortable and a touch dark. The folks at B.O.B.'s Brewery don't have to worry about serving beer to the entire world. Their focus remains on serving one beer at a time… Yours.
