OK not really, but my friend Amy Sherman is (the one who did the Valentine’s Dinner cooking class, and most of the cooking classes at the CSA last summer)! She’s the host, and we got to attend the taping at Saugatuck Brewing on Sunday. I’m not sure if DH and I were in any of the background shots, but they did take a photo of our table.
The series will air on PBS and feature breweries (and their food!) in the Great Lakes area. For more information about the series, go to www.GreatAmericanBrewTrail.com.
So what was it like being part of Michigan history?
So, how did the beer fare?
Nothing super outstanding, unfortunately. If you like Bud Light, go for the light blonde. The nut brown was good, definitely nutty. the IPA had good hops flavor and aroma (something that seems to be lacking in a lot of beers that cater to the “brewpub” crowd). The cider was very sweet, nothing objectionable. The Nutmeg Stout was odd. When it was cold, I really liked it. But then it began to warm, and I tasted licorice. Finally, at room temperature, you could taste the nutmeg.
If you’d like to attend the next one, or hear more bout upcoming events, make sure to become a fan of the Great American Brew Trail on FaceBook!
