Toledo needed to score more this half. Dropped a sure touchdown pass and keep putting themselves in 3rd and long. Their defense is doing their best and holding Boise St to about as little as you can expect. I think Boise will probably make some adjustments and it'll be tough for Toledo to keep up.

Two years ago a whole bunch of Mich. State girls came into a bar with "Holy Toledo" shirts on. By gametime we'd challenged two of them to a drinking contest and got them both throwing up. One of them into a pitcher.

 

Sparty on.

Truthfully though, I think Great Lakes is either first or second in the midwest depending on how you want to rate. Depth, I think they're behind GI and maybe Bell's (especially in Hopslam season). Average quality, I think they're far and away number one. They make some damn good beers.

Go Blue!

but I had 4-5 Edmund Fitz's in Pittsburght the other night, with fresh mussels and some other tapas stuff.  One of the 2-3 best beers given the overall picture I've ever had.  Absolutely fantastic.

Tonight's been an endless sea of Blues and Molson Canadians. And a rogue bottle of Canadian Club passed around.

A bunch of neighborhood guys digging deep into the garage fridge, throwing bumpers for the dogs, throwing pass patterns for the boys,  hanging out and eating meat off the grill - chicken, andouille, and some decent venison steaks doused in beer.  Wives are all gone to Chicago - don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you bitches.

I'm finishing off some leftovers lying around the house.

 

It turns out that grapefruit juice mixed with any kind of flavored alcohol tastes just like grapefruit juice.

When I went to visit family in Michigan over the 4th of July, I had my first Leinenkugels.  The Sunset Wheat is one of my all time favorites.

Oktoberfest is a good fall session beer. Nothing to write home about, but I think it can hold up to Honkers or something similar. I haven't had Sunset Wheat, but their Shandy is amazing and basically all I drank this summer.

From what I've had, Leine's seems like a great beer to buy a twelve pack of and drink the whole damn thing, but I haven't seen anything top notch, like the Goose Island Belgians, Bell's Hopslam or Third Coast or GL Burning River.

Have you had Dogfish Head Punkin? I have a friend who's dying to try it and I don't know if I should partake in buying and drinking it.

Go Blue!

Almost everything you listed is completely "Greek to me."  Must just be that those are not readily available in NC.  I did have the Summer Shandy, and everyone I spoke to in Michigan absolutely loved it.  However, it was definitely not my favorite.  I much preferred the coriander affect in the Sunset Wheat.  Never had anything with that flavor before.  I do tend to prefer the wheats.

I'll have to try the Sunset Wheat. Oktoberfest is good. Basically, I was saying in a long winded way that while Liene's makes some great beers for "drinking", drinking, I haven't had anything of theirs that is ridiculously good.

OTOH, making a beer that you can enjoy twelve of is a skill in and of itself, not many breweries can say that they do a good job of it.

Go Blue!

after # 5 or 6, I could drink malt liquor and be happy (at least for a little while).  I try to base my opinions on #'s 1 through 3.  Of course I just finished # 7 of various types from 5.1% - 8%, so maybe I will think differently tomorrow.  Oops, it is tomorrow.  Maybe I think differently already.  Shocktop Raspberry Wheat is now my new favorite!

 

I do highly recommend the Sunset Wheat.  However, it does kind of taste "Fruity"...sort of like a blueberry.  So if you have a strong dislike of "Fruity beer", you may not like it.

Its such a struggle to watch BSU games. The announcer's Kellen Moore fellatio ratio is far too high to tolerate.
