    My brother is stopping by and wants to pick up a growler for us. Any reccomendations based on what is currently on tap? I am looking for something not available in bottles (at least at the stores). I'm leaning towards Lession Siberator. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    Was there last week. Drank a shit ton of Yosemite Scooter and PB & Banana Wheat. Lession Siberator was great as well. Very low ABV. Can't go wrong with either of those.

    Just there a few days ago! Tried a most, but the PB & Wheat was great. Von Dammage was pretty good, and I personally really enjoyed the Wheat of Passion. Cinnabilly was good, too. I mean, honestly, you can't really go wrong with anything. We got growlers of PB & W and the Passion fruit one, though.

    Can you get a sampler paddle?

    Yes, they do a 5 glass sampler.

    And for the record, they have some freaking delicious food. If they still have the mac and cheese on special, go for it. It is fantastic.

    they have a few brewery-only bottles right now too. Controversius Maximus, Black Sust, and Lil Wheezy are all available right now. CM might be faded a bit now, but still worth trying. Lil Wheezy will only be available in their variety 12 packs coming out soon, so this is a chance to get it without needing to buy a full sampler. And BBS is one of my favorite beers, with an amazing bourbon nose and flavor.

    Wheat of Passion!!!
    That beer is outstanding.

    I really want to try that PB and Banana, anyone from Metro Detroit in Bellaire this weekend? :slight_smile:

    I might be up there on Saturday. If so, I'll bring some back to Royal Oak.

    Nice! I asked the bartenders last week if any of them had heard rumblings of what would be at the fest, and none of them knew anything. Glad to see that one will be on the list. :slight_smile: Will they also have the candied bacon? Lol, jk.

    Well if you need growlers before your trip, I can deliver them.. Although I think Steebo has most of my Short's Growlers filled w/ Pink Skirt.

    That might help. I just have a 750 swing top from HF and a normal one from Kuhnhenn.

    Was there yesterday. Really enjoyed Der Norden, Lession Siberator, and of course I had to get a full pint of Strawberry Shortscake--it just wouldn't be summer without one. Lil' Wheezy and Spruce Pils were in a bottle and wonderful as well.

    Flavorful, clean, crisp, hoppy. An incredibly refreshing beer.

    Got up to Bellaire today, but didn't make it in. I will be stopping in tomorrow afternoon on my way out of town.
