MLive: Kalamazoo celebrates Oberon Day

Bell’s opened early on Monday to a line of beer lovers, anxious for the first taste of Oberon, the seasonal beer celebrated this year on March 25. Some Kalamazoo taverns opened at midnight Sunday to satisfy beer lovers who were anxious to get their first sip of Oberon, reports MLive.

 

Excerpt: "Oberon is Kalamazoo," said Lauren Champlin, 24, who traveled from Ferndale to sip on the light wheat ale at Bell’s Eccentric Cafe on Monday morning. "It’s a tradition and we have pride for our local breweries and Bell’s. We stopped at Dark Horse Brewing Co. on Saturday, Arcadia Brewing Co. on Sunday and we were at midnight release parties."
