OUR MISSION
At Upper Hand Brewery, we’re all about doing what we love, where we love, with the people we love. That means brewing the best beer in the best place: Michigan’s beautiful Upper Peninsula. Every can is a love letter to the U.P., crafted by a ragtag crew of hikers, bikers, campers, dog-walkers, anglers, hunters, and outdoor-loving Yoopers who live for getting lost in our own backyard. All 10 million acres of it.
Whether you can’t wait to get back or can’t bear to leave, for every iconic U.P. moment, we’re your iconic U.P. beer.
