There are tons of fun things to do in Detroit this weekend and it looks like we’ll finally be seeing a bit of real winter weather. I, however, am heading to the Michigan Brewers Guild Winter Beer Festival in Grand Rapids. I had the most fantastic time last year and promised myself that the Winter Beer Festival would become an annual event for me. My husband wasn’t able to join in the beer fun last time around so I’m excited to take him this year, it will also be his first time in G-Rap.
So, you all get out there and enjoy Detroit for me!
