ITT we describe cities, especially the ones we currently live in as types of alcohol. Example, Seattle IMO would be a good beer like a Deschutes Black Butte Porter (or similar appropriate microbrew) whereas Detroit would be something like Hawkeye Vodka mixed with raw sewage.
I currently live in Des Moines, IA and I would say it is Busch Light at best, maybe even down to Keystone.
