Axle Brewing Company Livernois Tap

I love the way the indoor and outdoor areas are designed and set up. The food was amazingly delicious. We had the lamb burger with fries and aioli sauce. We also had the chicken shawarma Wings. The beer was good too but the food was more impressive. The staff was knowledgeable and great at making suggestions.

This is a great addition to the brewery scene. It has such a comfy, cozy and an excellent atmosphere. I felt so comfortable sitting and bs'ing with my buddy for a couple hours. The place looks like a mash up of sleek, modern design and a throwback at the same time. A beautiful outside patio. Both inside and outside feel so spacious and warm. The menu seems a bit odd, but really isn't. Well, not from what we ordered. Tried the twice fried trites (fries) w/ hot sauce aioli and the quinoa patty melt. Both were quite good. Buddy had dill pickle cheese curds (curds with pickle powder sprinkled on) and the lamb burger. He enjoyed those as well. The beer is brewed by Axle Brewery. I tried three: Jolene (american wheat), 14th Amendment (kolsch) and Noble Ghost (grindgeist blonde). All three had very simple, crisp tastes. I particularly liked the Jolene and the Noble Ghost. I'm looking forward to returning and sampling more of their beer! The server we had was extremely helpful in describing their food too. He was a nice guy; friendly. We sat inside, but I wish we would have sat outside. I can't hype enough how much I like the simple feel of the place. It was really a unique experience. It's located in an odd part of town, so I encourage everyone to check it out! To update this one. This place is now closed. It was very disappointing and I didn't take it well. I liked it so much that I made sure I went on the last day. I drank and I ate all that was good from previous times I had gone. Why it closed was not because of lack of customers, that's for certain. It was always busy. It had more to do with distribution of their product (beer). They are, after all, a brewing company. Which leads me to just make mention that the beer is still available and it's very good. Noble Ghost, Jolene and 14th Amendment were mainstays for me. I can only hope this place comes back in some other capacity or maybe in some other area. I want to return because I always believed in this place and what it offered.

We live so close to Axle Brewing Co. and have just never gone, it was an opportunity wasted and we will be back soon. The beer was delicious. They have unique, complex flavors and basic flavors that will appeal to a wide variety of tastes. The food was amazing, I highly recommend the twice fried frites ( the aioli is worth eating on its own) and the chicken liver mousse.
