    They're tapping some nice stuff due to it being Detroit Beer Month. Espresso IRS + the three single-hopped crooked trees, amongst others! Yowza!

    Who made up "Detroit Beer Month"? Odd since Detroit beer week is in October. If it is indeed the month of June, and next Thursday is may 30th, what Thursday do you speak of?

    This Thursday. Guess they want to start early? I have no idea who made it up, but OEB seems to also believe it's pretty arbitrary.

    Whatever the reasoning, the tap list is gonna be nice.

    I agree. Thanks for the heads up.

    I think these guys made it up.

    Those guys made it up on their own and it has nothing to do with Michigan craft beer except their agenda. Average tap list at Betty's at best too IMO since you can get all that beer at the local stores right now.

    Sure you can get em all in bottles, but I'd also like to try em on draft. I'd definitely say its better than their average tap list, which is getting a bit bland as of late.

    Also, what is 'their agenda'? Is it more than just trying to make money or?
