Oskar Blues coming to Michigan

Yes sir. Great news.

 

Awesome! I've only had their Ten Fidy and it was an amazing brew. Can't wait to try some of their other stuff.

 

I'm not overly impressed by their offerings, I imagine they'll struggle in a great beer state like Michigan, where even small town breweries are pumping out world class beers! But then again, variety, spice, etc.

 

I would say I'm less impressed with New Belgium's year round line up, and it seems like they are doing quite fine...Mama's Lil Yellow Pils will be a welcomed site, Michigan is devoid of good, American lager options.

 

New Belgium does really well in Indiana too, and I think most of their year rounds are average at best, but I honestly think most of that has to do with all of the promotion they do: tons of signs/neon, events, the famous displays they do featuring a giveaway bike, everything you can imagine branded with New Belgium or Fat Tire (including the kick ass NB globe), plus theyve gotten a lot of press for being employee owned and extremely green. Maybe I've underestimated Oskar Blues PR, but based solely on their regular offerings, I can't imagine them making much of an impact. I'm wrong a lot too.

 

This is great news!

 

Wow cool...thy Michigan beer cup is overflowing at the moment...DH BBPlead and BBMonster then Kuhnhenn BB4D and BBBW then Hosplam and BlackNote(in fact, Im drinkin one right now) then Lagunitas Sucks then Oskar Bluz comin our way...great brewery IMO...always drinkin Gubna, Ten Fidy, G'Night, and LYP everytime Im out west...

 

I cant freakin wait!!!

 

Michigan is pretty ridiculous. I like being able to go home to my parents' house in Michigan occasionally and go on a bottle spree.

 

I love my rediculous joke state of Michigan. Solid score!!!

 

Hopefully MN is on the list also.

 

Another thing about this that makes me happy is we get a good canned beer option. One thing in Michigan we don't have is a really good canned craft selection. Plus I do love me some deviant dales.

 

If you make it to Ann Arbor, hit Wolverine State Brewing, the bottled beers are not that remarkable, the other lagers in the tap room are.

Waiting for Bells to make Quinnanan Falls a production beer. Loved that one.

 

Already contacted Liz to see if they planned on sending some kegs up my way, unfortunately they are not. But thanks for the info, maybe you can sneak one up with you when you come...?

 

If I remember, I will get a growler of GuloGulo IPL.

 

So excited. Been wanting a quality canned beer to be available in Michigan for some time now.

 

HOLY SHITBALLS! I did not know about this. Total beer boner.

 

Outfrickinstanding!! The more the merrier when it comes to great beer. (Never had a drop of their offering, but I've desired it for a long time). Now Bring on the surly, new glarius and three Floyd's.
