COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
India Pale Ale style well suited for Hemingway-esque trips to the Upper Peninsula. American malts and enormous hop additions give this beer a crisp finish and incredible floral hop aroma.

Bottle. Great beer. Aroma is orange and citrus. Complex hop flavor. It had a perfectly acceptable malt body to keep the balance intact.

Aroma: citrus and hops. Appearance: deep gold, thin but lasting head with good lacing. Taste: citrus tang up front, hoppy finish. Palate: good full mouthfeel but not chewy. Medium length wet finish. Overall: living in Michigan I don’t know why it took me so long to try this. Absolutely amazing.

Pours a slightly reddish rich golden colour with a nice off-white head. Forward aromas of cherry & grapefruit accompanied by lots of spice, resin, slight dank & subtle malt as it warms. Taste is crisp, somewhat grassy, nicely bitter, with smooth but tart finish that keeps on expanding on the spice and malt. Light to medium bodied, this beer is very refreshing. Delicious!

This is the gift that keeps giving and they make plenty of it. A great beer to have in your fridge in the summer. It’s a nice light and easy beer to drink. If you are trying to ease a friend into craft beer this is a good one to have them try.

Really one of my favorite IPA’s from the Midwest. To many of these will leave you with a sour stomach though from it being unfiltered and thick.

Clear golden with decent head that dissipates quickly. a ton of lacing. Aroma is very hoppy. Citrusy and pine. A slight sweetness, but not much. Mouth is a hop heads dream. Citrus and pine hops. A delicious resiny, sticky finish. That is basically it. The quintessential IPA. The first IPA I ever tried. I’ll always come back to two hearted.

Bottle pour hazy yellow with orange hues. Nose dank hop, floral, and resin. Initial taste citrus and opine hop, some orange. Mid palate fruit sweetness. Long bitter finish.
