Here comes the Western Michigan beer!

How serendipitous! On a day when the first cases of New Holland beer arrived in Nashville, TN, Founders announced distribution to Tennessee.

I grew up in the tiny village of Stevensville, MI and still have a deep love for Western Michigan. Stevensville is about an hour from Holland, home of New Holland. Founders is from Grand Rapids, another 20 minutes down I-196. I’ve spent my adult life in Nashville, but I miss home. I don’t miss the Michigan winters, but they sure have some good beer up there.

Today, I’ve got a big smile on my face. New Holland and Founders. Wow. I wasn’t sure we’d ever get them here in TN. Bring on the Poet, Mad Hatter, Centennial IPA and Breakfast stout!

Welcome New Holland. Welcome Founders. I’m sure you’ll find my fellow Tennesseans love your beer as much as this Michigan native does.
