    I always thought Founders first collab would be with a local GR brewery. I secretly always hoped for a Dark Horse collab. The possibilities could be incredible.

    Yeah it's this new idea for beer labels, the neck of the bottle actually sits through there and the label sits on the bottle like a cd :slight_smile:

    Perhaps you just never had a good one.

    Does anyone know if they are bottling this. Or is going to be just draft?

    Yeah, I haven't had a great one yet, but in my head I just know this could be incredible if executed properly. I'm thinking St. Bernardus witbier dry-hopped like Lagunitas Sucks.

    I have had a few of them which are available, none thrill me. I believe a couple have been good beers but still unimpressive to me. I am open to being proven wrong but I do not think I will ever fall in love with the style.

    Give me a witbier, Give me an IPA, just the thought of a White IPA does not excite me. I like the distinctive qualities of the individual styles, I just do not like them together.

    They're great with brunch - but I agree, even the good ones will not swell the bell.

    This beer does not have any spicing in it. Pale wheat added. Bastogne yeast. Draft & 22's. Come by the brewery on tues May 1 to taste some. Gonna have a cask til it blows.

    Very excited about this. They are two of my favorites, brewing a hoppy beer. Sign me up.

    Founders hates Michigan, why would they ever do a collab with another Michigan brewery, and heavens, maybe even distro it solely here in their great home state. Nope, won't happen.
