Michigan breweries shine at national competition
With Michigan's wine industry becoming an international player our state microbreweries don't always get the full attention they most definitely deserve. The KalamaBrew staff over at mlive.com bring to our attention that "Several Michigan breweries medal at the 2008 Great American Beer Festival."

Spotlight: Food, Wine & All That Jazz, October 10 - Grand Rapids
Head to Grand Rapids for Food, Wine & All That Jazz, West Michigan’s premier wine tasting event at the Grand Rapids Public Museum. Enjoy more than 35 tables filled with over 300 domestic wine selections and over 25 tables of select gourmet foods.

It's "Hello World" for Michigan wine drinkers
Tom Wark's Fermentation wine blog says: Michigan Consumers should be smiling. A Federal District Court Judge in that state ruled on Tuesday that the state's law that bars consumers from buying and having wine shipped to them from out-of-state retailers violated the U.S. Constitution and enjoined the State from enforcing laws that prevent such shipments.
