If you could make a list of your 20 favorite MI beers - that were at least seasonally available (eg not having to wait in a line at dawn for a six pack for the year) - what would they be? Mine would be thus: 1-The Liberator (Short's) 2-La Roja (Jolly Pumpkin) 3-Breakfast Stout (Founders) 4-DRIPA (Kuhnhenn) 5-Big Red Coq (Vivant) 6-Citra Pale Ale (Odd Side) 7-Cup A Joe Coffee Stout (Short's) 8-4th Dementia (Kuhnhenn) 9-Plead the 5th (Darkhorse) 10-Expedition Stout (Bell's) 11-Baudelaire Saison (Jolly Pumpkin) 12-Anger (Greenbush) 13-Zaison (Vivant) 14-Hopslam (Bell's) 15-All Day IPA (Founders) 16-Sky High Rye (Arcadia) 17-Biere De Mars (Jolly Pumpkin) 18-Java Stout (Bell's) 19-Old Curmudgeon (Founders) 20-Doedish IPA (Witches Hat)
I'm too lazy to do a list, but there are lots of great beers here. Makes me sad to be leaving the area to move East..
thx for the list. will be up there in a couple of weeks. i made a wish list 2 yrs ago but many brewers i didn't know existed are on your list. time to append my list!
^^^^ I think all but 3 (#s 4, 6 & 20) in that list of 20 are bottled or canned, although many are seasonals or small releases and you won't find them on store shelves when you visit.
