Brewvine: Bringing Out the Dark Side at Rare Bird Brewpub in Traverse City

For this week’s Brewvine, Whitney Amann and chief photojournalist Jeremy Erickson take us to in Traverse City where the cold weather has brought out their dark side.

Rare Bird might bring out more dark beer during the winter months, but their popular “No Pressure” is something you can find on tap all throughout the year.

If you’re looking for something a bit lighter, Rare Bird has a variety of flavors and styles to choose from, like an older recipe for a hazy IPA called “Sailing Through the Haze” that they just brought back.

On top of the delicious beer, Rare Bird has a great food program, and a new executive chef who’s coming up with some tasty specials.

So whether you’re grabbing a hot bowl of ramen, or a couple cold ones, winter is a great time to visit Rare Bird Brewpub.
