The 8th stop on today's brewery hop marathon is Unruly in Muskegon. In the pick your own four sample we tried their shovel head cream ale, blueberry wheat, orange Julius Belgian wheat and the Revel Rouser west coast IPA. The shovel head was a mild cream ale, nothing as strong as New Glarius Spotted Cow...which is fine with us. The blueberry wheat had the "sweet tart" blueberry flavor...not like the other sweet, fruity ales we've had on thins is trip. It's light and drinkable and would taste good on a warm day...which this is NOT! Maybe tomorrow :-). The Orange Julius Belgian was light - a nice departure from the strong Belgians we had earlier at Vivant. Still, it had the "Belgian yeasty" flavor that I just can't quite put my finger on. Not sure it was a good decision to try the west coast IPA last, but after my palette adapted from the lighter fruitiness it was used to, the west coast went down pretty smooth. It was a more mild west coast than some and very drinkable.
Unruly is a bold hipster kind of place with a stage for live music and specialty "rebel pies" (pizzas). If we hadn't had such a great dinner at Perrin Brewery we'd probably be up for a pizza! Too bad they. Close in an hour and a half...we might need a late night carb load! We could see Unruly in one of the older buildings in downtown Sioux Falls. It would do well and we'd be there often!
