    Any Old Ales brewed in the Great Lakes area no one knows about? What are your favorites? Any recent barrel-aged examples I might be able to find? I haven't had a whole lot beyond Curmudgeon but I'm interested in trying new ones!

    Quince, Ceci N'est, Brettish Bulldog but that's from Against the Grain. Not many at all.

    Too few, I'd wager! I actually did have Ceci, really enjoyed it, hope Pipeworks brews more old ales.

    Ahh, makes sense! I was racking my brain trying to remember if I had heard about them starting retail distribution.
