S Upper Hand Brewing has their seasonal Deer Camp on shelves now. A nod to the classic Michigan tradition of opening day for deer season, it’s an easy-drinking ale.

6 non-pumpkin Michigan fall beers you must try Amy Sherman MiBrewTrail It’s fall y’all, and that means it’s time to switch up what’s in your glass. Every season brings new brews to try, and old seasonal favorites to revisit. As the weather turns chilly, and the days grow shorter, we tend to move to darker, more robust beers that can warm us up from the inside out and keep our taste buds happy. Here are seven beers to quaff this autumn season, from classic offerings from well-established breweries to seasonal favorites that only come

around once a year, and brand-new offerings to try for the first time. And not that there is anything wrong with a well-made pumpkin beer, but these are not that. Happy drinking Michigan. Short’s Brewing Company Super Delicious Stout is a new, lovely alternative to thick and sticky barrel aged bombs. It is a light option when you are craving those roasty, coffee and chocolate notes, but don’t want all the alcohol that those BA beers offer. Super Delicious comes in at a very mellow 4.4% ABV, which I would consider a session stout, and that means you can enjoy more than one.

The other thing I love about this beer is that it’s a nitro stout, so pour it in your pint glass to enjoy that super creamy foam that is the trademark of this style. I’m also planning to keep this on hand throughout the season to add a kick of Short’s flavor to some of my favorite dishes. Add a can to your chili, braise some short ribs in it, or add to French onion soup, you’ll be amazed at the depth of flavor a beer like this can add to your cooking. Balanced with just the right amount of hops, this full flavored, but easy drinking stout is quintessential autumn drinking. Keep on the lookout for two new variety packs from

Cheboygan Brewing- A new offering from Cheboygan Brewing is their Oatmeal Cookie Stout.
