Celebrate Frankfort Beer Week with a good old fashioned movie night - best of all, it’s FREE!

Head downtown to The Garden Theater to catch the newly released documentary created in honor of the 25th anniversary of the Michigan Brewers Guild. The film, The Great Beer State, draws from more than 60 interviews gathered over four years. Building on the work from the 2019 book A Rising Tide – The Story of the Michigan Brewers Guild and Michigan’s Great Beer State Podcast which was launched in 2020, the film was produced by The Beervangelist, Fred Bueltmann, author of A Rising Tide and co-host of the Guild’s podcast.

“Besides celebrating 25 years, this film shows stark differences between then and now, when it comes to locally brewed beer and its contribution to community culture. From before the Michigan Brewers Guild in the mid-eighties, to the formation of the Guild in 1997 and up until the present day, there has been a cultural transformation,” stated Bueltmann. “The storyline is loosely held, shared through stories and observations from dozens of brewery folks who have been a part of the brewing scene; past, present, and future.”

Catch this awesome documentary on Wednesday, October 5, 7:30pm at The Garden Theater.
