Based in Dexter, Michigan, Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales is one of those breweries that, in my mind, deserves a little more of a write-up than one or two lines. This is one of the more experimental breweries in America - its beers are brewed with many non-standard oddball ingredients. Also, while wild yeasts of the genus Brettanomyces are the bane of wineries everywhere, and plenty of breweries as well, due to their proclivity to dig in, multiply and infect all the beer or wine you produce, Jolly Pumpkin welcomes these critters into its brewery with open arms.
