I cannot thank Mike and the Mikerphone Brewing team enough for this opportunity. It has been a true honor to work with them at every step of this process - from initially brainstorming ideas all the way up through tasting barrels and planning out the adjuncting approach. They were so fun to work with and it was fascinating to see their process up close and be a part of it. It's not a coincidence that they're one of the best breweries in the business, especially when it comes to barrel aging.

Go visit their taproom so you can have a taste of our collab while also stocking up on their other beers and awesome merch!

Thanks again Mikerfam, love you guys ❤️🍻

What is Small Batch?

Crafted Small Batch is a unique beer festival. We ask some of the best Midwest breweries, Home Brewers, Cideries, Meaderies, and Non-Alcholic Breweries, to provide a special beer, cider, mead, and NA specifically for this event. We also ask the breweries to provide a person who made this specific beer so they can share what went into creating the experimental or one-of-a-kind beer. Unlimited Samplings of the best beer the midwest can offer, Live DJ, Food from local vendor, and much much more. Glassware is provided for every entry.
