Founders closed down recently to quickly finish construction before ArtPrize kicks off this Wednesday. This year the first official beer of ArtPrize is from Founders. The Inspired Artist Black IPA is a hoppy, malty, citrusy—if that doesn’t describe it well enough, than you’ll just have to try it for yourself. The 7.5% black IPA will sport the ArtPrize logo and be available throughout the event. As you can see, it was essential that Founders finished its expansion in time for the annual art extravaganza. Our city loves ArtPrize. It’s kind of a big deal.
After months of caution tape, limited parking, and orange barrels, Founders is ready to accommodate their many fans. Now the brewery on 235 Grandville Ave. is 40% bigger. They expanded the taproom to make room for more brewing. They added an educational viewing area for beer tourism. They expanded the patio to hold the growing number of cool people who all drink together and discuss art, music and movies (seriously, the people who frequent Founder’s are so hip). I can’t wait to go see it. There’s probably so much room for activities.
Founders is the golden child brewery of Grand Rapids. They have great food, an awesome atmosphere and some of the best beer in Michigan. Now is the perfect time to go to downtown Grand Rapids. You’ll be free to meander through the 1,500 pieces of art that have taken over our city. Once your brain hurts from trying to decipher what the artist “is trying to say,” keep wandering towards Founders. Order an Inspired Artist Black IPA, and I guarantee everything will make sense.*
*disclaimer: it won’t help you understand art. But, it’ll taste good. That should be enough.
