Greetings from West Michigan

I was at the Mission in July with the in-laws. The place was PACKED. We had t wait forever for a table and barely had time for a beer before we had to hit the road for our other reservations. I didn't have a chance to pick up any of the pumpkin bottles to take with me. If anyone has access and would be willing to ship some Bam Biere, Bam Noir, or anything else in their line up, I have a variety of East coast beers to trade...

I will keep you in mind if I see any. I really love their Madrugada Stout. Its what got me started on Sours.

If you haven't been to Shorts in Bellaire you need to check it out. Awesome non bottled tap list, excellent food and a great atmosphere. And if your out that way, you need to hit up Right Brain in Traverse City.Lots of experimental type ingredients and just awesome brew overall. Also Since your now in Traverse City, go to Jolly Pumpkins "INN" on old Mission Peninsula. Beer is more geared towards their Northpeak counterpart but they did have 2 sours on tap. Best part is the Kobe Beef Burger and Truffle oil Fries for $12.

I was at Right Brain Saturday (2nd visit), Shorts on Sunday(3rd visit), I didn't make it to Jolly Pumpkin I wanted to... but since I started Saturday morning at Odd Side Ale, went to Ludington for the Suds on Shore, Stopped at Jamesport for a late lunch. Then on to Right Brain, Hit North Peak up for dinner....... LOL what a day.

North Peaks Cherry Porter BBQ sauce is off the chain. I was also just in Oddside Last night. The Hazelnut stout was good.
I can't imagine hitting up all those places in one day. Never been to Jamesport.... Worth a try? Its only an hour for me.
