Wine lovers can head to the water to satisfy their palates. The Lake Michigan Shore Wine Trail boasts multiple vineyards and tasting rooms, including Lemon Creek, Tabor Hill, and Round Barn, stretching from south of Holland to the border of Indiana.

It’s easy to see how Ann Arbor, and even nearby Ypsilanti, could grow such a scene. After all, the University of Michigan has more than 30,000 students. Detroit, despite all its troubles, is seeing a lot of growth and seems to be on the upswing. Brewers enjoy the history and architecture of the Motor City. To see everything that’s available, check out The Beer Mapping Project, which lists every type of brewing operation within the vicinity of any zip code.
