Recap of Hopcat 7-Year Anniversary Celebration in Grand Rapids
Written by Dan VanderKooi
Things have been very busy in the world of Hopcat with new locations springing up all over. Hopcat Detroit is the most recent to open just a month ago with a world record setting 120 Short’s beers on tap. Detroit joins the East Lansing and Broad Ripple Indy locations as the 4th Hopcat to open since the original original Grand Rapids location opened 7 years ago. I recently paid a visit to the Grand Rapids location for their weekend-long celebration on the anniversary.

The Tin Can Bar Opens Downtown Grand Rapids Location
Written by Dan VanderKooi
Tin Can Bar has pretty simple concept: “Cans are King!” - Don’t expect to find your favorite beer on draft or in bottle here because you won’t find it. All the Tin Can Bar features are cans, and lots of them. The concept has proven successful in Lansing with 3 different locations and now Tin Can has opened a 4th location on Grandville Ave SW in downtown Grand Rapids across from the Intersection concert venue and just down the road from Founders Taproom. I recently paid a visit to see what Tin Can Bar has to offer.

XIAO China Grille And Lounge Is Your New Lunch Buffet Spot In Lansing
Written by Aimee West
One of my favorite things about writing for I'm a Beer Hound is that not only do I get to travel all over tasting different craft beers but I get to eat some really great food. There are days though when you just want something different than burgers, chips, and pizza no matter how excellent they are.

The diverse beer menu features over 70 different drafts of a wide range of styles including local breweries as well as world-class beer from all over.

Gravity Taphouse Grille is the latest in a series of projects brought together by the RedWater restaurant group which is also home to such other establishments as Reds on the River in Rockford, and FireRock grille in Caledonia.
