Travel & heatwaves

Whlist the UK & Europe was sweltering in the heat at the end of June I was enjoying a much cooler 2wks in Holland, Michigan working at a supplier site on a new cell.

Grand Rapids/Holland if you have never been I can honestly and thoroughly recommend a visit especially if you like BEER! just a word of warning they have a fantastic range of dark high percentage beer and it goes down easily …. too easily & you'll know about it.

Visit Hopcat or New Holland Brewing to try Dragon's Milk a deliciously dark & strong 11% or the Triple Mash version at a mere 18% Also keep a look out for the wonderfully named Backwoods Bastard! although you may need to drive into Grand Rapids or visit Walmart for that one.

If you wake up feeling rough, hungover I did warn you they are easy to drink but incredibly strong!
