Good gravy....

Hopefully they don't offer free crack fries for a year to the first xxx people. That along with this being in downtown D might keep the line from going all East Lansing Hopcat on us.

Sup guys- I'm on a cross country beer and golf roadtrip and I'm going to be in Metro Detroit this afternoon and tomorrow for the Witch's Hat anniversary party. I'm thinking about posting up at Kuhnhenn tonight, and would be down to meet up with anyone there. Would also be up to crack some bottles and drink somewhere else. Shoot me a message if interested. Cheers.

Champagnes on 13 Mile between Van Dyke and Mound or Napa Valley at 15 Mile and Mound. I think you mean Napa Valley as they have a solid mead selection.

Wiseness of decision confirmed. Had an awesome time learning about mead and Schramm's from Naegerbomb and Debbie. Would go back again infinite times/would suggest stopping by to anyone in from out of town. I will be singing their praises for quite a while.
Had the flight with Mambo in your Mouth, Plum, and Nutmeg, added Statement Reserve and Heart of Darkness, and tasted the Ginger, Peach, and the Statement as well. The cheese plate paired perfectly. I would call myself a happy man right now. See some of you tomorrow at Witch's.

Will do! Unfortunately, golf wasn't on the agenda in Michigan as I didn't have time to fit it in. I need to come back next summer and do a proper Michigan-only golf and beer/mead trip. I played the U of M course quite a bit when I was there for undergrad, and I would have liked to play it again if I had time. Heard there are some crazy beautiful courses up north, and I know Oakland County has some amazing tracks as well.

They were too gregarious, informative, and hospitable for me not to leave them a beer. Guilty as charged. I'll see you at the Hat. I'll be in a ratty LA Kings snapback and a Hakeem Olajuwon t-shirt. And I'll buy YOU a beer.

It's a deal. We will each buy each other a beer and accomplish nothing other than drinking delicious beer. Works for me!
