Traffic Jam & Snug - Detroit, MI
July 25th, 2008Traffic Jam helps give some street beer cred back to Michigan. They hold the 1st brewpub license in Michigan & the quality has obviously kept them going.
The downside is that they only had 4 beers to try. Ok, maybe a couple of downsides. The other, sitting outside & getting hustled by Detroit street walkers/crack addicts/& meth heads. It really wasn’t too bad & it gave Melissa & I the opportunity to keep an eye on the Beer Travelln’ mobile.
Service, food, & Beer were great. The Centurion was a Belgian Style Grand Chu that was in honor of the brewer’s 100th barrel of beer brewed. The Doppelbock was Exceptional, extremely smooth with a hint of richness. Inside looked to have less atmosphere, but more room than outside.
It should also be noted that Traffic Jam has their own dairy & bakery. They make most of their food on-site, including salad dressings, ice cream, breads, desserts, & of course Beer. Overall I would say there probably isn’t much else worth anything in Detroit. So if you have to be in Detroit, than you may want to make a pit stop @ the Traffic Jam & Snug.
