Hey guys. I'm new to BA and from NC. I'll be making my way up to GR in the mid August time frame. Plan on hitting up Bells, Founders, and Brewery Vivant. Have limited time and may want to hit bottle shop to find some rare stuff too from the area. Recommendations on bottle shops or other must sees that I should check out?

scroll through this forum. there are several re threads in GR and surrounding area Croush if I recall has some great recs Here are a couple recent, but go back a few pages for more extensive recs. https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/ann-arbor-and-grand-rapids-bottle-shops.433856/ https://www.beeradvocate.com/commun...nd-rapids-kalamazoo-brewery-questions.434666/
Coming from NC, you may not pass by Greenbush in Sawyer, MI (just off 94 about 75 min. from Kalamazoo) but they have amazing brews. I'd also suggest One Well (off 94 in Kalamazoo). For a fun night check out the Beer Exchange (beer prices change based upon purchase patterns) http://kalamazoobeerexchange.com/ Siciliano's in GR is a great bottle shop, and of course, the ORIGINAL Hopcat is there.
Rishi's is also a nice bottle shop to hit, located on 28th street on the south part of Grand Rapids. https://www.facebook.com/ribgr/ https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/10773/ Always has a great selection and at times hard to find beers
