Our Story

A brewery that bakes,
a bakery that brews.

Neon Groundhog Brewery started with a simple question: why keep the brewery and the bakery separate? On the same stretch of Mohler Road in Grand Rapids, we decided to bring both traditions under one roof — because the best sourdough and the best stout have something in common. They both take time, patience, and the right ingredients.

Every batch is small. Every loaf is hand-shaped. We source our grains from Ohio farms and our hops from growers who treat their land the way we treat our recipes — with care and respect. The result is beer that tastes like this place and bread that tastes like it belongs at your table.

The Brews

On tap, rotating seasonally

Our taps change with the seasons. Here are the staples you'll always find — and the limited releases worth waiting for.

Amber ale in a glass with golden amber color

Mohler Road Amber

4.8% ABV

Balanced caramel malt with a clean, bitter finish. Our flagship — the beer that started it all.

Dark stout in a glass with rich dark color

Groundhog Stout

6.2% ABV

Roasted coffee and dark chocolate. Brewed with locally milled oats for a velvety mouthfeel.

Wildflower Pale Ale

5.4% ABV

Citrus and pine from Cascade hops. Light, crisp, and easy enough for a summer afternoon.

Sour wheat beer in a glass with pale golden color

Sour Wheat & Honey

4.5% ABV

Wild-fermented with local wildflower honey. Tart, slightly sweet, and refreshingly unexpected.

Hazy IPA in a glass with cloudy golden color

Neon Haze IPA

7.0% ABV

Juicy tropical fruit notes from a dry-hop bomb. Hazy, bold, and our most popular seasonal release.

Crisp lager in a glass with pale straw color

Winter Pilsner

5.0% ABV

A clean, lager-style pilsner with a subtle floral hop character. Brewed for cold nights and warm company.

Available styles vary by season. Ask about our current tap list when you visit.

The Bakery

Baked before dawn,
served all day

Our ovens fire up at 4 a.m. every morning. The bread is ready by opening time — and it's still warm when you leave.

Fresh sourdough bread loaf with golden crust

Country Sourdough

48-hour fermented wild starter. Crisp, thick crust with an open, airy crumb. Our most-requested loaf.

Butter Croissants

Laminated by hand, folded seven times. Flaky, golden, and made with European-style cultured butter.

Seeded Rye

Dense, tangy, and studded with sunflower, flax, and caraway. Pairs beautifully with our stout.

Rosemary Focaccia

Olive oil-rich, dimpled, and topped with fresh rosemary and flaky sea salt. Best served warm.

Brioche Buns

Rich, tender, and slightly sweet. Perfect for burgers or sandwiches — or simply buttered and enjoyed.

Soft Pretzels

Traditional lye-dipped, coarse-salted, and served with our house-made beer cheese mustard.

All baked goods are made fresh daily. Quantities are limited — we sell out.

The Pairing

Every loaf has
a beer.

We don't treat the bakery and the brewery as separate businesses. They inform each other. The rye in our seeded loaf was milled from grain we dry-hopped into our stout. The sourdough starter has been fed with wort from our amber ale batches for years.

When you sit down at our counter, you're tasting the same land, the same season, the same intention — expressed in two different ways. That's the point.
