Brewing beer has already been a popular pastime in the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti area. That is until it turned into full-time jobs for a number of talented brewers. Now some of the most recognizable names in the world of great-tasting beer are in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, and they are turning their love of hops and barley into expanded offerings here and abroad.

The company, which recently marked its 15th birthday, is also working on a joint venture agreement to open its first franchise brewpub in Bangalore, India.

"There's a lot going on right now," co-owner Matt Greff said.

That may be an understatement.
