Brewery Profile

Redwood Steakhouse and Brewery

For visitors looking at Flint’s beer options, this is one of the city’s established brewing addresses, with brewing operations maintained since 1996. A first impression is likely to be more restaurant-centered than production-floor-centered: Redwood Steakhouse and Brewery is primarily known as a dining venue, but it includes an on-site brewery that makes beer for guests to drink there and to take away. The brewing program is overseen by Head Brewer Rockne Van Meter, continuing a house-beer tradition that predates many newer craft beer stops in the region. Rather than presenting itself only as a taproom, it functions as a restaurant with brewery activity built into the visit, so travelers should expect the beer list to be part of a broader meal-oriented experience.

Travelers exploring Michigan beer often look for places that connect regional craft brewing with a specific local setting, and this stop fits that pattern without requiring a detour from a restaurant visit. The known focus is on unique beer styles made with natural ingredients, so the appeal is less about chasing a single flagship beer and more about seeing what the brewery is currently producing. The beers have received industry recognition, though specific awards and totals are not part of the available profile. For someone passing through Flint, it offers a way to sample house-made beer at a business that has kept brewing on-site for decades, which gives the visit a different context than a newer brewery built only around a taproom model.

Because many details can change by day, the best practical approach is to confirm the current pours when you arrive. The brewery offers a range of house-made beers for consumption on the premises, and carry-out sales are also part of the operation, so visitors who find something they want to revisit may be able to take beer with them. Other taproom-style amenities, tour availability, seating arrangements, reservations, and package formats should not be assumed from the basic brewery description. Treat it as a restaurant-and-brewery stop: check the day’s beer list, ask what is brewed in house, and verify carry-out options before planning around a specific style.
