Eliza Thorpe

Northern Michigan based Singer/Songwriter, Eliza Thorp, has been weaving stories and finding home in the warmth of the Mitten music community. She writes songs of home and the heart, with a palette of landscapes,sounds and changing seasons. In her youth she grew up listening and dancing in the kitchen with her Mom to the likes of Carol King, james taylor and lots of Simon and Garfunkel. Eliza often finds inspiration for her songs in her daily adventures outside with her dog, Holmes. You can sometimes hear the sound of her favorite trails woven within if you listen closely

Mug Club 2.0 Membership Sale!
Jan

Mug Club 2.0 Membership Sale!

Mug Club Version 2.0! 

120 new mug club spaces available at Noon on Saturday, January 10th! PLEASE READ ALL INFO BELOW.

Well folks, we found some space to add some more members to our Mug Club! 

Since opening the brewery 15 years ago all mugs sold have been a lifetime membership and we will continue to honor that arrangement for those members. However we have realized this structure does not foster an opportunity for unused mugs to turnover. It's a bummer to see some mugs rarely, if ever getting used when there are many folks in want of a mug. 

With that in mind we will be moving forward with a yearly membership with this new batch of mugs and any future membership sales from us. This way if a member finds themselves not using their mug they can relinquish their membership for the next year and that space can go to someone new to enjoy. 

The details:

  • Initial mug price: $50. This is to purchase the mug. All are still handmade by local potter, Ryan Dalman. 
    Yearly Membership: $50. This membership will be due on the day of the mug sale and by January 1st each year for the subsequent year. 

  • For example: If you buy a mug on Jan. 10th it will be $50 for the mug and $50 for the 2026 membership ($100 total). 

  • You will then get an email next December with the option to renew your membership for 2027 ($50). You can decide then if you want to renew or relinquish your membership. 

  • If you decide not to renew for the following year you can keep your mug and bring it home, but you will not be allowed to use the mug at the pub. 

  • We will then offer that membership and a new mug up for sale. ($50 for a new mug and $50 for the membership). 

January 10th Mug Sale Info.

  • Sale begins at Noon when the pub opens. 

  • Strict limit of one mug per person. 

  • Open to new members only. If you are a current member please do not try and buy a second mug. 

  • We will collect the mug holder's name, email address and phone number for our records. 

  • Please enter through the back door of the pub through the parking lot. Not the entrance on 3rd street.

And most of all please be patient and respectful eh!
