I remember back in the day before my webhosting company went to hell in a handbasket losing my entire site - I had made an effort to make maltedbarley.org much more than just a blog. I had created an 'events' calendar among other features. At the time it seemed that beer events, even across the US were limited. There were weeks without anything to speak of going on. How the craft beer world has changed. With over a hundred breweries in Michigan alone, and over fifteen breweries in town, along with countless beer bars and pubs, chances are something is going on at any given moment.
This weekend is a big one for events in Michigan. Dark Horse 4Elf party is Saturday with all kinds of off the wall food, Bell's Eccentric day is tomorrow, not to be outdone, it too has a vast selection of eccentric food from pickled eggs to rocky mountain oysters. I can't help but feel there is some healthy competition going on here.

I'll be honest I wish I could do both Bell's and Dark Horse's events, but I'll have to settle for one... I think.
Update: Earlier I stated that Kuhnhenn was having their winter solstice party this Friday and Saturday, it's the Dec 21 and 22nd, not sure how I goofed on that one.
