Beer of the Month: October 2021

na zdrowie.

Could it be? Yes? Yes? It is!

We’re back for Beer of the Month after a nearly 18-month hiatus due to the Covid-19 crisis, the cause for our inability to be “On The Mitten Road” with no destination except our new favorite brewery somewhere in Michigan.

Truth is, we didn’t really go far to find this “local” brew.

Standing in the middle beer aisle at Siciliano’s on a Monday afternoon staring at a five level rack of aluminum cans doesn’t seem like a bad thing until you realize you’ve been there for 12 minutes just looking for something different.

Then we realized October began with Pulaski Days here in Grand Rapids and the drink of choice for our team is Tyskie.

 

From their website:

 

Gronie is our flagship pale lager of full strength, which has been gaining recognition both in Poland and all over the world for years. Thanks to the centuries-old tradition of Tyskie Browary Książęce and the experience of their brewers, Gronie provides the perfect balance between hoppy bitterness and malty fullness.

A discerning beer drinker will sense some malty notes, a delicate aroma of hops, and even apple and banana flavours. Tyskie Gronie is the only Polish beer to have won two “Brewing Oscars” – Grand Prix at the British Brewing Industry Awards.

Alcohol content: 5.2%

Best with: baked and grilled meat, game, pasta and potato dumplings

Serving temperature: 4-6°C

Ricky Robby signs a new deal with the Creston Rock Crew

Ricky Bobby, the big fundamental from the Greyline Nines, has announced he’ll be taking the stage with the purple Creston Rock Crew for the upcoming 2021-22 season and beyond. 

While most of you know the background of the team, you don’t know that Ricky Bobby is also the lead singer of the Pretoria Band, who play tonight on the City’ s WestSide at the Tip Top Deluxe on Butterworth Ave SW.

Nines stay atop the standings, City goes fishing

Seeding Round and Elimination Game highlight Week 11

 

It really all had to happen over Spring Break while players, coaches, and League staff were finally getting a chance to escape the pandemic for a few slight moments. Yes, folks, it all came down to who showed up in Week 11.

In Game A, otherwise known as the 7pm game (which normally starts about 7:12p, sigh), the Nines worked their way to a 59-55 win over the Crew to solidify their #1 seed in the Playoffs. With the win, the Route Nines achieved the storied honor of choosing their semi-final opponent. They have the option of facing off against the Crew for a second week in a row, but will have to weigh the return of players for both teams. MJ did his thing.

In Game B (we started at 8p, not bad), the Greens took advantage of an injury-riddled City team. Behind $ilky’s team season-best 43 points, the Green Ligers made a run just after halftime to send the City of Bridges into the 3rd game of the night and a date with possible elimination.

Oh, the terror of playing your last game of the season. That’s the nightmare the Hawks and City had to deal with. After a tough loss to the Greens and an immediate turnaround in a game against the hungry Hawks team looking to notarize the playoff paperwork late in the year. After a stretch of 7 straight losses, the Hawks won big in Week 9 and lost by 1 in the final game of the regular season. But Tuesday night, the Red Hawks of Force were flying a stealth bomber right up and over the defense of the City squad. “Green Light” Bandit led the way in the final 3 quarters, but really put it away in the 2nd. Mr94Feet and Berlin Wall complimented well and fan favorite Big Baby did his thing, driving the gallery into a frenzy.
