Commercial Description:
A deep golden-orange hue provides the backdrop for a well-balanced, medium bodied ale. Hop flavor and aroma are distinctly American with a spicy, citrus finish.

Editor’s note: Sold as Mackinac Summer Ale (5% ABV) in Sweden. (2008)

A typical over hopped pale ale. Tastes more like an IPA. Mouthfeel is smooth, some presence of malts, but finish is too dry-bitter. Little tastes of citrus-floral, mostly spicy hops. Didn’t like that much.

Aroma of hops, malt. Flavor has some mild hops, but it reminds me mostly of a classic.

Pours deep amber with aroma of slight citris, caramel. taste is thin with the caramel, citris and grass in there. Not bad, but very average.

355 ml bottle. Labelled Mackinac Summer Ale. Copper colour. Crystal clear. Medium-sized white fine-laced head. Nutty caramel aroma with a Belgian dusty zing (likely because it is a little old. BBF 2008-09-24). Medium-bodied. Caramel flavours and crisp hop flavours. The caramel is slightly burnt. High carbonation level. Finishes with a metallic hop bitterness. Nice pale ale, but possibly even better when fresh.
