Bell's Eccentric Cafe Only 750ml bottle program to begin Monday, June 27th
"Bell's Brewery is excited to announce the debut of our Eccentric Cafe 750 ml bottle program beginning this summer. As we do not fill growlers at our pub, we want to make our pub only beers available for customers to take home and we feel that offering these brands in the 750 ml format is a great way to do this! These bottles will only be sold at the General Store in downtown Kalamazoo and will not be available for distribution as packaging runs will be small, making outside sales fairly impractical. Over the next few months, we plan on bottling a wide variety of our pub only beers including Wedding Ale, Raspberry Ale, Mead, Sparkling Ale, and Wild One (just to start). Other brands will follow suit as they are brewed and labels are created. There will not be a set release schedule for when 750s will hit the General Store, however the program will kick off on Monday, June 27th with bottles of Wedding Ale. There also may be limits as to how many bottles can be purchased depending on the brand. We are looking forward to making these specialty beers available to leave the Eccentric Cafe in bottle for the very first time! Cheers!"

Public Tours Return to Bell's Brewery
Beginning May 14th, Bell's Brewery will offer public tours of the original brewery in downtown Kalamazoo, connected to the newly renovated Eccentric Café located at 355 E. Kalamazoo Ave.
Tours are free and will be offered every weekend: Saturdays at 11:30am & 1:30pm, and at 2:30pm on Sundays. Tours will generally run 45 minutes in length, and will not require advance reservations. Simply show up at the Eccentric Café prior to the start of the tour, and we'll take care of the rest. We do ask that large groups call ahead so that we can make sure that we can accommodate you; please call 269/382-2338 during the week within normal business hours and ask for the tour coordinators.
We are very excited to bring public tours back to the brewery each weekend, and we look forward to hosting you.
