I saw he was at Crane's event in KC and alerted my KC friends. IMO, his Smells Like Bean Spirit is a bit overhyped, but I'm not a big coffee stout guy and there's been some growing pains with the different batches. If he ever barrel aged it though, it will break this city. IMO, his hops game is pioneering in the Great Lakes region and he's done it all by contracting in other spots up until now.
One other thing on Mike, he's a genuine great dude who is brewing and juggling all the craziness that comes with the scene with the best intentions.
