Saggy what??

Lol....you said "saggy".....short for Saugatuck, that is. The Saugutuck Brewery which is not located in nearby Saugutuck, MI as you might expect....but rather just a couple miles south in an equally small town Douglas, MI. The Red Cross is here today for their "pints for pints" blood drive event. Give blood and get a free pint glass. Hmmm....great promotion, but maybe not for us. :-). The sixer sampler had a blonde, starburst hoppy wheat, 3 IPAs and their cherry wit. The blonde and the wheat had that strange "amateur brewer twang" to them. The first IPA, backyard, was a session...probably the best of the three. Our palettes are spoiled from the great beer we've had so far today, so these are mot as good by comparison...but definitely not bad. The Mandarina IPA must have been a DIPA with 8.2% ABV. It was mild, sweet with a deep copper color. Nice fruity notes. 

It's been a long time since breakfast so we ordered baked potato bites...very tasty. On to the cherry wit...very good! Pretty light, drinkable and mild on the cherry. It drank like a lighter wheat, and the cherry flavor was refreshing.
