Default Hello from Michigan

Hello folks, I am really just starting to get into the whole craft beer scene. I have been drinking craft beer for approximately 2 years. I have a few jewels in my Cellar, Founders CBS, KBS, Curmudgeons better half. Three Floyds Darklord from 10,11,12 and a few Dogfish head 120's. My friends and I usually get together a couple of times a year and sample beers from everywhere.

I started out really enjoying the Hoppiness of Beer like Bell's Hopslam. My tastes as of late have been leaning more towards Malty beers. Luckily being from Michigan I have several great brewerys within a couple of hours from my House. Founders, Bells, DarkHorse Brewing, New Holland just to name a few. I am only about 10 miles from a new brewery called Bad Bear which is located in Concord Michigan. I hope to glean some knowledge from you guys.

Thanks to all for the warm reception. Last night I revamped my beer fridge. I have several friends that travel for business and they always go out of their way for me. So, I added a case of New Glarus (12) Moon men (12) Two women, a case of Three Floyds Gumball Head, a variety pack from New Belgium (Ranger, Blue Paddle, Fat Tire). And for Good measure I added a Pliny the Elder.
