Joe Lunchpail says The old reliable Twin Cities metro area beer
December 1st, 2008
The reason I say this is that, usually, no matter where you go in the TC, you can at least get yourself a Summit EPA. I take advantage of this when I end up at bars/restaurants that have limited beer selections. The Summit EPA, to me, is what Grain Belt Premium is to a lot of people. The EPA is not a world-class talent, but it sure beats the pants off of the typical bland domestic light beers. It is versatile enough to appeal to the light beer crowd, but is hoppy and flavorful enough for those like me that would rather take a punch in the teeth than to be stuck sipping a Bud, Miller, Coors, Busch, or Michelob. A reliable old friend that can be counted on to be there for me when others don’t show up, that’s my Summit EPA.
