A Hop Lover's Paradise: Ogma Brewing Nails It with Their IPAs! Ogma Brewing in Jackson, Michigan, is an absolute gem, and if you're an IPA enthusiast like me, you must make this your next stop. I'm not just saying five stars; I'm talking "shout it from the rooftops, tell all your friends" kind of five stars. From the moment you walk in, the vibe at Ogma is just right—welcoming, cozy, and clearly built by people who love good beer. But let's get to the main event: their IPAs. Oh, their IPAs! They have a remarkable range, each one a testament to their brewing prowess. Whether you lean towards the hazy, juicy side or prefer a more classic, bitter West Coast style, Ogma has something that will blow you away. The Juice Box Hero Hazy IPA is a tropical explosion, bursting with notes of citrus and stone fruit without any harsh bitterness—it's incredibly smooth and dangerously drinkable. For those who appreciate a more traditional bite, their Piney Peak IPA delivers with a fantastic resinous hop character and a crisp, clean finish that lingers just perfectly. What truly sets them apart is the freshness and quality of the hops in every pour. You can tell they're using top-notch ingredients and truly understand how to extract the best flavors and aromas. Beyond the incredible IPAs, the service is friendly and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is exactly what you want from a local brewery. Ogma Brewing isn't just a place to grab a beer; it's an experience for craft beer lovers. If you're anywhere near Jackson, do yourself a huge favor and visit Ogma. Your taste buds...
Read moreOgma is by in large my favorite local place for food and drinks, locally or otherwise. Great and unique food, thoughtful and delicious drinks and friendly staff to boot, I'm always happy to support Ogma with my business.
There are very few places that literally everything is good. There are simply no half-effort items on the menu, each and every dish and drink clearly has thought behind it and someone that cares a lot about what they're providing to customers. There's tangible passion behind everything; whether that be the food/drinks, the service, the atmosphere, their social media, or their community involvement. This is one of THOSE places that knows what a good restaurant is and how to actually realize that vision.
Every business has off days, not everything can be perfect, not every decision pans out but Ogma sure does a fantastic job of making it seem like that's not a problem for them. I've visited Ogma a ton of times and never had any complaints, only a great experience. I'd be hard pressed to even think about something that could be considered a complaint.
I adore Ogma and I hope they have nothing but continued success for...

Behind the bar stands Jessa, a vision as though summoned from some ancient bard’s tale. Her smile could outshine the lanterns of elven cities, and her presence wraps the weary traveler in warmth richer than any hearth.

The beer itself—ah, no mere drink. Each sip brims with alchemy: honey-kissed sunlight, whispers of wild forests, and echoes of forgotten feasts in far-off kingdoms. It does not simply quench thirst—it awakens the soul, stirring dreams of quests yet untaken and triumphs yet won.
To visit Ogma Brewing is to enter legend, and to be served by Jessa is to brush against...
