Casey the editor here! Just got out of an official work day on the documentary. We can't show you a whole lot of the film yet, but once things start getting pieced together some more its going to be done in no time! Thanks for checking the blog!<br />
<br />
Also be on the lookout for the 2 minute long theatrical version of our trailer at your local theatre!<br />
If its not there, ask your local theatre to get ahold of us to show it! Thanks!<br />

AND A TRIP UP NORTH.......The new goal for this project will be one updating this blog more and more all the time. My goal is once a week you will see more and more news about this movie. Along with some short interviews that you will not see in the movie as a whole. We just got back from Shorts brewery and we enjoyed some great beers with the owner Joe. He sat down with us and we had a great interview with him. He had some really great things to say about Michigan and great idea's to make this state one of the best in the country. I am at a point where i truly think we are living in the best state in the US today. I understand its very hard to see that when we see so many of us without jobs, but really i see a light at the end of the tunnel. I for one am starting to buy and do what ever i can in this state. When you take a trip do it in Michigan. When you buy a beer buy Michigan beer. If we take the time to keep dumping our money into the people around us we will see a great difference in this state. I am excited for this film and I am also excited to be a part of this great state. Check out what we drank on our trip up north.<br />
<br />
SHORTS<br />
KEY LIME PIE crazy beer kinda heavy for a 85 degree day, but i had to try it<br />
THE MAGICIAN A dark red and my top shorts beer<br />
THE GOLDEN RULE One of the best summer beers light tasty<br />
THE ANNIVERSARY ALE So many different flavors in this beer! AND a high percentage of alcohol!<br />
<br />
RIGHT BRAIN We spent two days at this place so don't judge me hahahaha<br />
CASK CONDITIONED BEER very good but too hot of a day for this one<br />
EMPIRE SPEER BEER Unreal it is made with local asparagus<br />
LITTLE ITALY HONEY BASIL Also very good you can taste the basil<br />
SUN CUP Great summer beer<br />
WILL POWER One of my favorite Michigan beers<br />
STUCK RUDDER MICHIGAN COMMAN ALE<br />
(We also have a really delicious beer, but we can't remember the name of it... something along the lines of Katy Shut The Door? It was really sweet and light!)<br />
<br />
At the store we got<br />
6 PACK BELLS OBERON<br />
6 PACK SKY HIGH RYE ARCADIA<br />
<br />
In other news we are going to enter this film in Art Prize this year. The steps are being taken and so we will see how it comes out. I can promise you if this project was the winner we would do great things for Michigan. Also if you have not been to Shorts check out the pic below and most of this work to this place was done by Joe and his wife, Leah. They risked it all to bring you some of the best beer in the world. Until next time keep drinking michigan beer.<br />

The general manager Travis let us in early and gave us a great tour of the brewery. We sat down with Travis, Bryan, and Aaron and talked about Michigan beer, and why they do what they do. The guys at Dark Horse are extremely passionate, and knowledgeable. We had an incredible time, and can't wait to go back as soon as possible. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Getting ready for the first day of the eight day journey through Michigan beer. We are all very excited and ready to go. We had the chance to spend this past Saturday at the Michigan beer fest. I can't tell you in words how great this was. Over 5000 people enjoying local beer. The pride that i seen at this event was something I have never seen before. This made me so proud to be a part of this great great state. We also got to sit down with some great people to get some awesome interviews. So thanks to all the people that have shared the excitement of this trip. Tomorrow at noon we will be having some lunch at the Hopcat brewery in Grand Rapids. This will mark the start of this great trip. If anybody is around come out and have a beer with us. We will also be ending this trip at Founders also in GR on March 8th around 9pm. We really look forward to meeting everybody and celebrating Michigan for eight days.

The journey starts March 1st and ends March 8th. Every brewery in Michigan will be visited and none will be left out. If you want to help with housing people on this trip or any tips please contact us.<br /><br /> I moved to Michigan about 4 years ago. At first I hated this state and I hated the fact that I lived in it. I was completely out of my element. I hadn't drank beer for nearly my entire 20's but as some of you may be aware of people in this state drink a lot. Well about one year into my Michigan move I took part in the drinking of beer. I started with the stuff that I knew about from growing up. You know Mickeys/Pabst/Old Style all the cheap hip shit beer they sell at every corner store. Well shortly into this a friend of mine got me a growler which is a bottle of beer around 64 oz like a large 40 oz. This is something a lot of local breweries have so you can take it back and refill it when you want. It's a great way to get beer that breweries don't bottle. The first growler I got was filled with a local beer called Dirty Bastard from Founders brewery right here in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This beer knocked me on my ass for sure. This was the first step towards real beer, but not the last. I still went forward with what was cheap and the largest quantity. As time went on i looked at my beer in a different way. I started looking at my local economy and how we in Michigan don't have it so great. I started looking into buying local beers and what was out there for me. Slowly but surely i started noticing that the local beer i was drinking was the freshest and the strongest I could drink. I also noticed I drank less of it than when I drank shitty corporate beer. Last year for new years my partner and I decided to do our best and drink only local good beers as our resolution. We understood this would be way more costly but we wanted to make this step. So we did and this opened up an entire world of new beers and local products. I then started thinking about going to every Michigan brewery because i started noticing how many we had. Michigan... the state that has a lot to offer but is often forgotten about because of its economic situation. At first it was planned as a fun trip that was going to take place last summer. This never happened so I just kinda put it on the back burner. Until I realized how important it was that this trip happen. Michigan is a at a tough place right now, and needs something to make it stick out. This idea is about promoting the art of beer making to make people realize how great our beer really is. We have some of the best beers being brewed in this state right now. Living in Michigan made me realize that i knew nothing about beer. Being able to live in this state means I can enjoy a great beer made with real ingredients and made by people who care. This trip will begin on March 1st and end at founders brewery on march 8th in Grand Rapids. This is just into the planning stages and the first meeting will take place at Founders on Jan. 10th. I am excited about this and look forward to updates through this blog. We will start contacting breweries this week and have big plans for this project. Until then look forward to this epic journey.positive noisehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10160546586798286037noreply@blogger.com1
