What does "HOMES" mean? 

HOMES is meaningful to us in several ways, but mainly as an acronym for the names of the Great Lakes (Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior).

Do you distribute? 

Yes but only our flagship IPA, Same Same Different. We release new cans + bottles often, which sold directly from our can shop on Campus and at the HOMES Brewpub down the road. Follow us on Instagram or Facebook for updates. You can find our sister company’s products out in distribution as well: Smooj Hard Smoothies, and CiNCH Vodka Spritz.

DO YOU MAKE CHARITABLE DONATIONS?

HOMES Brewery + Habitat for Humanity of Huron Valley = affordable housing!

Being actively involved with and contributing to our community is part of our culture, which is why we’ve partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Huron Valley [HHHV]. 100% of net proceeds from our annual Nucleate Beer Festival are donated directly to this local non-profit, which has been a catalyst for stabilizing homes, families, and communities in Washtenaw County since 1989. We provide additional support to HHHV through offering event spaces, fundraising opportunities, and inviting the HOMES community, our guests, to make direct charitable contributions to HHHV at check-out.

We offer in-kind donations and raffle items on a case-by-case basis upon request.

Do you sell beer to-go?

Yup! Our Can Shop offers a variety of cans and 750ml bottles to go.

How many beers do you have on tap?

We try to keep 8 to 14 beers on tap, depending on our production capacity.

What type of beers do you brew?

Our focus is hoppy & sour beers, but we venture outside those styles periodically.

CAN I HOST A PRIVATE EVENT AT HOMES CAMPUS?

Absolutely! HOMES Campus has many flexible spaces (including the exclusive use of our expansive outdoor beer garden/patio area) that are great for all sorts of events. We’ve hosted everything from a grand wedding ceremony and reception to a small business luncheon, and everything in between. You can start your event inquiry here.

Do you allow dogs?

We allow well-behaved dogs in the beer garden (outdoor seating) as long as the dog remains on a leash and attended to by the owner. See @dogsofhomes for some of our furriest patrons.

Do you have food?

Yes! Campo Pizza is currently offering Roman-style pizza Wednesday - Saturday 3-9pm; Sunday 2:30-8pm! Dozer is open daily and offers cafe pastry items and sandwiches until 5pm. We do not allow outside food or beverages on the premises.

CAN YOU ACCOMMODATE LARGE GROUPS?

Seating is on a first come, first served basis; we do not take general reservations. To guarantee space for large groups, please inquire here or email Olivia directly: olivia@homesbrewery.com.

For large groups of 15 guests or more, an automatic 20% gratuity will be added to all party tab(s).

Do you take reservations? 

No reservations. Our setup is fast-casual dining with open seating. To inquire about larger groups or to book a private event, please fill out this form or contact olivia@homesbrewery.com.

Do you have gluten-free alcohol options?

Yes! We serve Smooj Hard Smoothies produced by our sister company, locally sourced spirits (vodka, gin, rum, whiskey), wine (rosé) and cider. We also make CiNCH: our own low ABV vodka spritz.
