What's on tap? 750 GRILL

750 Grill in North Muskegon now has a coupons available at http://www.restaurant.com and features New Holland Sun Dog and Founder’s Centennial on tap!

Also Bear Lake Tavern has been bought by one of the owner’s of Alleyways – so maybe we can expect a lot more beers on tap soon!

What's on Tap? Grandville/Kalamazoo edition

Angie went to Kalamazoo this weekend to check Brian Vander Ark at Charlie Foster's (Seafood Restaurant.) They were doing dinner packages, but I had a couple of gift cards left from Christmas, so we decided to stop at Carabba's in Grandville on the way down instead. (After I seeing and smelling the dishes at Charlie's Fosters, I wish we would have opted for the dinner package - Angie & I are planning a return trip for dinner sometime!)

Carabba's sole local brew was Fonder's Pale Ale.
Charlie Foster's had a better selection: Kalamazoo's own Winter White & Two-Hearted, as well as New Holland's Poet & Arcadia I.P.A!

New Beers from Founders

Got this news from this weeks podcast at:

www.mlive.com/kalamabrew

Founders has a new double-IPA, called Double Trouble, which I am very looking forward to as their triple, Devil Dancer is one of my all-time fave brews. Double Trouble is at least 9.4% alcohol, according to their estimates.
They will also be introducing a bourbon-barrel aged version of this brew, called the Hand of Doom, at the Winter Fest next month, of which they've said POTENT is an understatement, and that the 1 oz sampler is all you will need....

They will also be featuring the Imperial Stouts and Porters in bottles once again after several years of absence, thanks to their recent expansion.

Alleyways opens with 21 beers on tap!

4-Pack of the week: Founders Backwoods Bastard Bourbon Barrel Aged Ale

Also picked this up at Ladd's - at almost 10% alcohol I figured I could do with a 4-pack this week instead of my usual sixer

This is the same recipe as Dirty Bastard I believe except that it's been aged in Bourbon barrels!
