just moved to lansing area and as beer fan my first question to you all is what are th ebeers that I need to try out. I can already see that the beer selection is quite broad here compared to TX where I come from.. looking forward to hear from you all.

Founders - Dirty Bastard is my favorite made in Michigan Ale. It's a Scotch Style Ale.

Thank you for your reply Nephler. I would also like to hear about the places where I can get good beer selection at good price..

Bells is a good Michigan beer too,but I gotta admit, I prefer founders

[Nephler]

Almost forgot, Arcadia Ales makes some good stuff also.

When we were poor and 16?

Best selection of true Michigan beers is at Crunchy's. They have loads of micro's on tap, and often have specials on certain days. Food selection is decent, filling and fairly inexpensive. If you sit at the bar, the bartender is usually knowledgeable about the beers and can suggest several for you to try before making your selection.

Harper's has good beers, daily food specials (half off, $1.75 pints) as well.

Visit the websites of either for more information.

That was Bush for us. If you went exotic, you could get Coors smuggled in the back of someone's camper from Colorado.
