European Beers, Spanish Vermouth, and Small Plates<\/p>\n

Panoramic Brewing\u00a0is designed to feel like a modern Madrid bar, focusing on small shared plates, European-style beer, and Spanish vermouths. The drinks are made at their production facility in Saugatuck Township, with plans to add spirits to the lineup down the road.<\/p>\n

To build the menu, they brought in culinary consultant Nick Von Ins. A long-time friend of the owners, Von Ins previously worked as executive sous chef at Chicago spots like Ceres and Bistro 110. Because he\u2019s also a brewer, he\u2019s helping design tapas specifically meant to complement what\u2019s in your glass.<\/p>\n
