OUR CREW

Hop Craft Supply Company is the epitome of a local home-brew shop, locally owned and operated by a small group of friends. Hop Craft was founded by 3 long-time friends and Michigan natives: Mike, Brennen, and Brandon. We got our start in the craft beer industry over 15 years ago selling craft beer at one of Michigan’s most well-known beer and wine shops.

To become even more formidable in the craft beer industry, the next logical step to gain more understanding about all aspects of beer was brewing. After homebrewing throughout college without a good local supplier, and before there was free and flat rate shipping, we dreamed up the idea of the perfect local home-brew shop. After graduating from Central MI University with degrees in Marketing, logistics and recreation, we decided to take a chance and step into the craft beer industry by building the Great Lakes Bay Region’s first local home-brew store.

Over the years — after moves, marriages, kids and lots of beer — we still work at the shop full time every day, fulfilling orders, packaging hops, creating recipes, and stocking the shelves. With over 30 years of combined brewing experience, our favorite thing is sharing advice and helping our customers brew the best beer they possibly can.
