BlakChamber 8 Report post Posted November 5, 2010 I only support Michigan beer. A close family friend is the brewmast for Shorts beer, so i mostly drink that, except Molson or Labatte is what i drank during Wings' games. Can you send some Shorts to Texas? The only Michigan beer I've ever seen down here is a few of the Celis ones from MBC, probably because Celis was located in Austin for a while before Miller than MBC bought the brand. Every time I go home, I always stock up on Michigan beer. The mitten is easily one of the top 5 states for beer in the country, way way better than Texas. Anyone ever try a sour brew? I've had plenty but I'm not just not a huge fan of Belgian and/or sour beers. I did have the lagunitas little sumpin wild a while ago, which is a Belgian pale ale that was pretty good. I don't know if Lagunitas distributes in Michigan, but they make some tasty beers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlakChamber 8 Report post Posted November 5, 2010 LSW was more or less an IPA, i loved it, only 4$ for a bomber too I think its some kind of IPA/Wheat with Belgian yeast. Whatever it is, it works. And at 4 bucks, the price is right! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you tried Lagunitas Hop Stoopid ? The Twin Liquors in and around Austin always seem to have it and it is under $4 for a 22oz. It's pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If "wasn't that bad" means "perhaps the best seasonal beer ever and a true shame it's only available for a limited time", I'm right there with you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACallToArms 270 Report post Posted November 7, 2010 (edited) well guiness is one of the worst beers in the world, but some people seem to think it is good, it obviously isn't Guinness is pretty much what a dry Irish stout should be. Most definitely not one of the worst beers in the world. Anyone ever try a sour brew? I've had a lot of Jolly Pumpkin's offerings, which use wild belgian yeast in all their ales; makes them all pretty sour. Their Bam Biere is pretty good, as is their stout (forgot the name) Edited November 7, 2010 by ACallToArms Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
