This weekend, John Gonzalez and Amy Sherman explore the White Pine Trail in West Michigan, a biking trail that stretches 93 miles from Comstock Park (near Grand Rapids) all the way to Cadillac. On this weekend's show, they stop at some of the breweries you can explore along the way. And they reveal 4 Beers of the Week. This episode aired Sept. 29-30, 2017.

Segment 1: John and Amy stop at Perrin Brewery in Comstock Park, which is a few miles off the trail, but very supportive of the biking community. Just recently, Perrin announced a partnership with the West Michigan Mountain Bike Alliance (WMMBA) to create Flow Trails located throughout Wahfield Park, located near the brewery. John and Amy talk to Kevin Allen of WMMBA, Bill Parker, the trail coordinator at Wahfield Park, and Lindsey VanDenBoom of Perrin.

#1 BEER of the WEEK: Blackberry IPA, a seasonal brew that combines the tart sweetness of ripened Blackberries along with an aromatic floral bouquet of fresh Michigan bittering hops.

(We visited for MLive's Best Fried Chicken.) They have been open since 2015. They were selected as one of MLive's Best New Breweries in 2016.

#4 BEER of the WEEK: Red Flannel Ale, a classic amber ale that is perfect for fall. It will be served Oct. 6-7 at the brewery's Festival Celebration Beer Tent, which coincides with Cedar Springs' Red Flannel Festival.
