Ann Arbor Weekend

I'll be in the Ann Arbor area for part of the weekend. Any recommendations besides the Arbor Brewing Co. and Grizzly Peak?

Any good HBS in the area?

Didn't get any recommendations, but I checked out the Grizzly Peak brewpub. Sampler was pretty good. Stout seemed watery, though. I just went into the Arbor Brewing Co long enough to buy a pint glass. Pretty loud on a Friday night, which seemed to really reinforce a college-kid sort of atmosphere. Grizzly Peak seemed more relaxed and friendly. I didn't eat, as I'd foolishly picked up some Popeye's chicken on the drive up from Cleveland.

Didn't spend much time in Ann Arbor. Spent most of the time up near Dexter for the Medical Wilderness Adventure Race, which pretty much kicked my ass, but I finished! Damn, I still hurt, though

Sorry I missed your post until now. If you were in Dexter on Saturday, you could have stopped by at Jolly Pumpkin. They're open to the public on Saturdays, you can buy their beer, sometimes they give tours of the brewery.

Thanks for the info. I'll probably be doing the race again next year, so I'll see about swinging by there.
