Photo Friday: I Love the Great Lakes
|
You don’t have to be from a Great Lake state to appreciate the lakes’ many attributes. Whether you’re just visiting or a long-time local, their beauty is mesmerizing. A lot of us love them. How much? Sierra Club launched the “I love the Great Lakes” project two years ago to visually illustrate the love people share for the lakes.

Vote for best named Great Lakes brew
|
We culled through your nominations for the best name of a beer brewed in the Great Lakes watershed and put some of them on this poll. Our selection is arbitrary and of course misses many beers and breweries that were not nominated. And yeah, we get it about those of you who disdain creative names as something that fails to impress true beer aficionados. But sheesh…lighten up. Our bias is toward names that are particularly relevant to the Great Lakes environment or places.

More on Great Lakes beer: Which has the best name?
|
Last week we asked you to nominate the best beer made from the waters of the Great Lakes watershed. And what a great job you did. The Echo staff is inspired to turn that list into a shopping list. One disappointment: The nominees didn’t reflect the binational nature of the watershed. They don’t make beer in Canada?
