It’s from Kalamazoo, MI. Bell’s is pretty good. I prefer Michigan Brewing Company’s offerings, but then MBC is closer and good beer doesn’t travel well. IMHO Bell’s Two Hearted Ale is over hopped. Think IPA with extra hops. I’ve heard a lot of good about Oberon, but haven’t tried it myself.

None of those make it out here to Rochelle. At least I’ve yet to see them. Next time I stop at Lundeen’s in Sycamore I’ll look for them. Thanks for the list.
