Bartender pouring a craft beer at the Old Mill tap

- Built in <strong class="text-cream">1869</strong>, this four-story stone building on the banks of the Kalamazoo River was once the <strong class="text-cream">largest buckwheat flour mill in the country</strong>. Today it stands as a proud landmark, listed on the <strong class="text-cream">National Register of Historic Places</strong>.
- We’ve honored the building’s industrial heritage while transforming it into a warm, welcoming brewpub where great craft beer meets a scratch-made kitchen. Every pint is brewed in-house, and every plate is made from fresh ingredients.
- Whether you’re settling in for a family dinner, catching the game with friends, or enjoying a quiet pint on the patio overlooking the river, the Old Mill is your place.

- Plainwell Standard — 3.9% — Our flagship session ale and the beer that started it all. Drawing from the English bitter tradition, the Plainwell Standard emphasizes malt flavors balanced with floral English hops. Not particularly bitter by American standards, this copper-colored pint proves session beers don't have to sacrifice character. — ![Plainwell Standard beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTYsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--f17d0e3f51caae438a79d38d1d62aec56dd34acb/Plainwell-Standard.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTYsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--f17d0e3f51caae438a79d38d1d62aec56dd34acb/Plainwell-Standard.jpg
- Crazy Beaver — 5.3% — Don't let the name fool you — Crazy Beaver is as smooth as they come. Brewed with a generous helping of maize for a clean, light cereal grain flavor and exceptionally smooth body. Just a touch of noble Saaz hops rounds it out. Perfect for a sunny afternoon on the patio. — ![Crazy Beaver beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTcsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--33f4d7c64a3cf006f1247861136735e2e6d08c6d/crazy-beaver-logo.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTcsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--33f4d7c64a3cf006f1247861136735e2e6d08c6d/crazy-beaver-logo.jpg
- Island City — 6.8% — Named for Plainwell's island city heritage, this American IPA delivers everything you want from the style. A clean, bready malt backbone supports citrus and floral hop character front and center. Hop-forward and bitter, but balanced enough to stay refreshing pint after pint. — ![Island City beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTgsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--0642c2d71fde1fd8d70e80d76f697a2e53d974c5/Island-City-IPA.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTgsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--0642c2d71fde1fd8d70e80d76f697a2e53d974c5/Island-City-IPA.jpg
- Cold West — 6.3% — The best of both worlds: all the hop character and flavor of a West Coast IPA with the crisp, clean finish of a lager. Fermented cold with lager yeast and loaded with local Michigan Chinook and Citra hops. The result is a beer that's bold on flavor but impossibly clean. — ![Cold West beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTksInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--838ade1d3ef563c828e1c86c8b10dc297c853bf5/Cold-West.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NTksInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--838ade1d3ef563c828e1c86c8b10dc297c853bf5/Cold-West.jpg
- Earth Angel — 8.3% — Brewed not with a devilish name, but an angelic one. Light in color and bold in flavor, Earth Angel delivers notes of sugar cookies and honeycomb with an aroma of fresh pear, clove, meadow grass, and lilies. This beer is simply heaven on earth — and at 8.3%, it packs a divine punch. — ![Earth Angel beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjAsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--8093aa58ebb2b1f71d856bfa32a7f326b54ab58b/Earth-Angel.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjAsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--8093aa58ebb2b1f71d856bfa32a7f326b54ab58b/Earth-Angel.jpg
- Sunshine — 6.8% — A bold stout with layers of bittersweet chocolate and licorice, finishing with a warm hint of coffee. We incorporate substantial amounts of oatmeal in the grain bill, which contributes to an incredibly rich, silky mouthfeel that you'll feel from the first sip to the last. — ![Sunshine beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjEsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--01ad39007aba264ad43539b6649a10110026a5e0/Sunshine-Stout-Poster.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjEsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--01ad39007aba264ad43539b6649a10110026a5e0/Sunshine-Stout-Poster.jpg
- Vanilla Sunshine — 6.8% — Everything you love about Sunshine, elevated with fair trade Mexican vanilla. The natural bittersweet chocolate, licorice, and coffee notes of the base stout are deepened and enhanced by that complex sweetness that only real vanilla can bring. Dessert-like without being sweet. — ![Vanilla Sunshine beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjIsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--d4644a6041df2c4db6d129076cbcf04ea07a28fc/Vanilla-Sunshine.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjIsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--d4644a6041df2c4db6d129076cbcf04ea07a28fc/Vanilla-Sunshine.jpg
- BEERRH — 8.0% — Our most adventurous creation — a homage to a classic French aperitif made of fortified red wine and quinine. This plummy red ale is brewed with Michigan cherries, Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, and quinine syrup (the main flavor of tonic water). Fruit-forward, herbal, and completely unlike anything else you've had. — ![BEERRH beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjMsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--4b45f2c5994dc4c8b73899d9437d1d80eada9fa9/Beerrh.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjMsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--4b45f2c5994dc4c8b73899d9437d1d80eada9fa9/Beerrh.jpg
- Little Boy Barley — 8.7% — Good things take time. Little Boy Barley spends a full year aging in our cellar before it ever meets a glass. The result is rich marmalade sweetness, velvety caramel flavor, and a warming alcohol presence that's perfect as we await our spring thaw. A seasonal release meant to be savored. — ![Little Boy Barley beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjQsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--7c2b76f11a1e74a6a78a5170133a11c02183d472/little-boy-barley.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjQsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--7c2b76f11a1e74a6a78a5170133a11c02183d472/little-boy-barley.jpg
- Brewer's Batch #100 — 7.8% — Created to commemorate brewer Adam's 100th batch at the Old Mill. This triple-hopped double New England IPA features Amarillo, Calypso, Citra, Mosaic, and Michigan-grown Chinook and Centennial hops. Prioritizes flavor over bitterness with an exceptionally prominent, juicy hop profile. A celebration in a glass. — ![Brewer's Batch 100 beer artwork](https://oldmillbrew.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjUsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--4a7c1260a9299f0567616eabc8860df216d0c214/Brewers-Batch-100-Adam.jpg) — /rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6NjUsInB1ciI6ImJsb2JfaWQifX0=--4a7c1260a9299f0567616eabc8860df216d0c214/Brewers-Batch-100-Adam.jpg
