The North Peak Hoodoo has been killing me this fall. It’s just so very good. I also agree wholeheartedly with the inclusion of the Ginger In The Rye and Hopslam. Those beers are both terrific.
The Hoodoo was so good! Great addition!

Too bad I wasn’t able to try the Old hat Peanut Butter Stout before they went out of business!
That’s too bad! Lots of other great Peanut Butter Stouts in Michigan, though – Short’s Uber Goober and PB&J, Odd Side Ales Peanut Butter Cup Stout…
I’ve seen it on tap at Uptown in Commerce and The Union in Clarkston…

Does anyone know where I can get Ginger in the Rye? I live close to Detroit
It’s pretty hard to find around here. Check with nicer liquor/beer stores. You can also try Brass Mug (http://brassmugliquor.com/) and Beer Baron (http://www.beerbaronlivonia.com/) – both in Livonia. Â Good luck!
Thanks!
