Arcadia is one of our favorite breweries in Kalamazoo. It was also one of our first stamps in our Give a Craft passport! Positioned on the Kalamazoo River, at the opening of Arcadia Creek, this brewery makes a perfect rest stop while kayaking on a hot day to stop for a beer and some excellent BBQ. Arcadia has one of the largest beer gardens in the city that includes a fire pit, yard games and plenty of seating both inside and out. You can even bring your dog! This past summer I participated in Yoga in the Beer Garden, presented by Down Dog Yoga studio, and then I met my family afterwards for Kalamadoodle! We also enjoy being able to roller-blade and bike the Kalamazoo River Valley Trail (KRVT) and swing by for a beer. Arcadia is definitely in a great location!

I had a hard cider (right) that was amazing!
