About Us

Drífa Brewing Company is Michigan’s first cooperatively-owned craft brewery and one of only approximately twelve in the nation.  We are proud to have accomplished this right here in beautiful Marquette, Michigan!

Like any other craft brewery, we are open to the public, and both members and non-members are welcome to come in and enjoy our constantly-rotating selection of carefully-crafted beers at any time.  No membership is necessary, our doors are open to everyone!

As a cooperative, we are community-owned so you know your money will stay local.  As a craft brewery, we are committed to creativity, quality, and variety, so you know you’ll be pleased with our beer each and every time you visit, which we hope you do very often!

Head Brewer--Spencer

Spencer has been living in Marquette for about 7 years with his wife Steph and their dog Riker. He grew up in Traverse City and came to Marquette for college. He liked it so much he decided to stick around.
