The Atwater Block Brewery - Located just a couple of blocks from the 1937 Koppitz - Melchers site (see April 1937, Modern Brewer, p. 39, et al.) this brewery produces a fantastic menu of top beers from their Silver Medallist Atwater Pilsner to my favourite two row malt, Kräussen Hell (one of which I'm drinking now).  The brewery is also a terrific get-together place with relaxed restaurant and bar.  If you do happen to stop in be certain to locate their  wall-museum to the old brews of Detroit, which happens to include a little homage to our Koppitz!  Ironically this modern brewery has no web page I'm able to find, which astounds me--if you guys at Atwater need a page My Services and Server Are Available!   Let's get them online!
The Motor City Brewing Works - One of Detroit's most recent breweries located in the city and producing a fine brew.
The Stroh Brewery - The oldest surviving Detroit Brewery...  You can read about how Stroh, through a strange series of events, eventually acquired what was left of Koppitz in 1964 at the Koppitz History page.
Ye Olde Taproom - While not a brewery–you have to drink the goods somewhere with friends, eh?  Taproom's claim of "Detroit's Libation Ground Zero" is right on the mark.  A great East-Side (damned near GP, actually) place to go with almost all the good beer you could want and fine SM Scotch too...
