At the heart of our brewing philosophy is a deep respect for Belgian techniques—known for their expressive yeast profiles, layered flavors, and balance between complexity and drinkability. To bring that spirit to life here in Northern Michigan, we use a proprietary Belgian-style house yeast strain developed exclusively for Stormcloud. This unique yeast is the foundation of many of our flagship beers, including Rainmaker Ale, 228 Tripel, B., Sirius Dubbel, Birdwalker Blonde, Whiled Away, and Nightswimmer Stout.

Fermented warm to encourage character and nuance, our beers often feature the signature spice, fruit, and dryness that define great Belgian-style ales. But we don't stop at tradition—we push boundaries with ingredients and brewing methods to create beers that are both rooted in heritage and uniquely Stormcloud.

Whether you’re sipping a classic Belgian-inspired ale or one of our modern twists, every Stormcloud beer reflects our commitment to craftsmanship, creativity, and a deep love of beer culture—both old world and new.
