Kalamazoo is the birthplace of Michigan’s craft beer resurgence.

Bell’s Brewery Inc. launched in Kalamazoo in the 1980s and laid the groundwork for what would become The Great Beer State. Today, there are 9 breweries in downtown Kalamazoo, as well as several excellent craft beer bars and restaurants.

The area has more than 20 breweries, with many more with less than a 30-minute drive.

In collaboration with Discover Kalamazoo, we provide guided walking tours of downtown Kalamazoo breweries every Saturday year-round. We also specialize in customizable private bus tours for birthday parties, corporate team-building, conference entertainment and more for groups of all sizes.

West Michigan Beer Tours also provides a select public bus tours, including our popular Halloween Beer Tour and Hop Harvest Beer Tour.
