About Red Jacket Brewing Co.
Red Jacket Brewing Co. is the brewpub inside the Michigan House Cafe in historic downtown Calumet. The building dates to 1905, when Bosch Brewing put it up to sell its beer to local patrons.
The brewery pours a Coffee Oatmeal Stout, a British Brown Ale, an American Pale Ale and an IPA. Other beers come and go with the seasons. The stout also goes into the kitchen, in the chili and in the Drunken Pig pulled pork sandwich.
Inside, a massive wooden bar, an ornate fireplace and hand-pieced tile floors are kept as original as possible. A ceiling mural dated 1906 shows a picnic full of beer. Upstairs, two suites offer overnight lodging.
The kitchen serves burgers, sandwiches, wraps, paninis, salads and entrees. The entrance and the parking lot are both wheelchair accessible.
