“ We rented out the Barrel Room for our wedding reception this weekend. Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, the events team at Barrel Beam was communicative, patient in answering our many questions, and full of ideas for problem solving. We were able to set up the night before our event which was an enormous convenience, and the space was beautiful for our intimate event 40 people total. We would definitely recommend working with Barrel Beam for your event! ”
“ Ive been here a number of times. Once for a food event that showcased the talents of local restaurant chefs. The event was fantastic. Their beer offering is mostly ciders and sours. Its worth talking to the bartenders if you have never sampled this type of beer. They offer frozen smelted pizzas and heard recently they opened and kitchen and look forward to trying. Dont expect a run of the mill brewery, they are definitely introducing your palette to many different flavors at barrel and beam, definitely recommend trying. ”
“ A diamond in the rough! This was The North Woods Supper Club when I was at NMU 30 years ago. It was the place. The outside looks a little ragged, its still really nice on the inside. Great beer, they focus on farmhouse ales and sours... but there was a lager here today. Service is Outstanding!! Love it. ”
“ The Marquette County Conservation District has hosted several events at Barrel Beam, and each experience has been wonderful! Working with their events team is easy, and the catering available by Northwoods Test Kitchen is delicious. BB provided us with a screen and microphone for presentations, and gave us ample time to set up our own decorations prior to the event start. We will be back next year ”
“ Fantastic selection of drinks beer, mead, wine, cider, etc. Very relaxing atmosphere low noise, reminded us of a coffee house but with beer. Cute outdoor seating and 3 levels of seating indoors. Great place to grab a drink and play some board games or just relax. We look forward to coming back. Update we made it back to Barrel Beam after moving to the area. It was such a warm and beautiful atmosphere. Im so glad we have a place like this so close to us now. ”
“ How have I not posted a review yet for these guys!? My favorite brewery of all time ran by the best people. My wife and I were married at Barrel Beam back in 2019 and it was all we could have asked for. We plan 8 hr drives just to visit! Go, you wont regret it! ”
“ Barrel Beam consistently offers top service and event planning. I have used their venue for more than one teacher union event. They make it so easy to book, offer a great space, and communicate well throughout the experience. In addition, the Northwood Test Kitchen is outstanding. Alex recommended a dinner within our budget that many of our guests complimented. Everyone at Barrel Beam is kind, professional and helpful. We will absolutely be using their services and space for our future events and can recommend them to everyone no matter the size of their event or budget. ”
“ We hosted a bridal shower for my daughter at Barrel Beam last weekend. The staff went out of their way to make it a wonderful event! They were very helpful in accommodating our group size and helping to make the space which is already awesome! intimate and fun. Everyone was cheery and ready to help. I cant say how much this meant to us We traveled to the event locale, and yet felt very much at home. The inhouse chef provided a fabulous meal and was more than accommodating for food allergies. She created a wonderful menu and everyone raved about the delicious food. The bar staff provided wonderful beverages made onsite and locally we couldnt have been more satisfied. The rental, alcoholbeverages, and food prices were competitive, if not far lower than other local sites. I highly recommend Barrel Beam as a party venue! ”
