Brewery Opens in Ypsilanti, MI

It's not often a regular folk like me gets to help a brewery come to life.
These past few months, I have had just that opportunity. Now, I get to see the efforts of the owners, a handful of other volunteers and me come to fruition at last. Tonight is the pre-opening party for the Corner Brewery. I expect this establishment to become an important part of the fabric of downtown Ypsi and am proud to have played a part. The word "Pub" comes from "Public House". Anyone who has spent time in Europe has certainly experienced one - a place where the public can gather and relax. The American concept of a pub or bar is one-dimensional; so much of the character and potential of such a place has been lost. The owners, Matt and Rene Greff hope to reintroduce the concept of a true Public House to the citizens of Ypsi. They open for business on Thursday, June 1 - stop in if you're in the neighborhood. Please peruse the website and blog for further details and background. More to follow...
