Spoke too soon. My FIL and BIL got into my beer stash before I did. They started with the good stuff and worked their way down. I've got a few Lienie's left and that's it. Looks like another excuse for a beer run soon.

Some Hoptoberfest while watching ND play in a bowl game. Decent brew.

Since I crossed the 200 mile month line today and I am off tomorrow, I decided to sample some stouts tonight. The lineup...
Weyerbacher Heresy Bourbon Aged Imperial Stout
Breckenridge Oatmeal Stout
Bells Kalamazoo Stout
Dogfish Head Chicory Stout
Those are some tasty beverages.
Not at it at all.
Can any of y'all aficionados recommend a Michigan-brewed craft beer worth buying/drinking? A handful of beer-swilling coworkers are heading to the UP next week for a few days and hoped to sample something local.

Two breweries from Michigan that I have tried and make good stuff are Bells and Founders. Beers from there that I have tried and liked...
Porters / Stouts:
Bells Porter
Founders Breakfast Stout
Pale Ales / IPAs:
Bells Two Hearted Ale
Founders Rye Pale Ale
Founders Centennial IPA
I don't think that you could go wrong with any of those.
Thanks!
My bad. I just checked Google Maps and discovered that Midland is NOT in the UP -- more like in the oven mitt's crotch. Does that change things?
Ostrich runner
Bwahaha! Yeah, totally different. You should be able to find that stuff if you look around. It is still a different region separate from the west side. There used to be local breweries in that area but I think they all folded in the 80s.
You were drinking in the 80s?

Yes.
Uh, +1. But it was mostly Milwaukees Best Light, so I'm not sure it counts. I think it was a 30 pack for $1.
