Our honest-guide promise

Ads are always labeled. Paid spots say "Sponsored" and sit apart from the guide itself. Money never buys a place on the Bar Crawl route or a better write-up, so readers trust the guide, and your ad works better because of it. Alcohol ads must be aimed at adults 21 and older, cannot promote heavy drinking and must follow Michigan Liquor Control Commission rules. Details are in our policies.
