Only a case and a half, but I'm looking forward to trying some of them this weekend. The mother of of of my employees just drove down here from Ohio and she brought me a sampler 12 pack, a 12 pack of Dortmunder Gold. some Elliot Ness and New Glaurus Spotted Cow. I've read a lot about these beers but have never been able to get them.

I think you will like the Great Lakes beers. I have never been disappointed. You are getting their two most consumed beers, I would think. I just came back from a conference in Cleveland and was at Great Lakes Thursday evening. What I really like about them is the high number of beers on tap and the pub exclusives that they have. I had their Alberta Clipper( a new pub only brew) which is a porter with chocolate and raspberry notes.

I've enjoyed all of the great lakes brews I've had thus far. I consider them quality beers.

Curious about what you think of the Spotted Cow.

We like most of the NG products and when ever in their neighborhood we pick some up as they don't deliver outside of Wisconsin.

As for the Great Lakes, only have had the pale ale but it was superb. Another brewer we have to travel for, usually find it in Chicago.

When I hired this kid from Wisconsin last year he brought me a bunch of NG and Bell's beers. I like the Spotted Cow, but I think my wife likes it better than I did. There were some other NG beers I liked better but I can't remember which they were.:confused:
