Pour is an orange with a small white head. Aroma is slight citrus hops that let you know there are there. Flavor is lots of citrus hop with a nice earthy malt backbone. A decent APA and quite sessionable.

Bottle: Pours a clear orange with an off white film of head. Stale aroma with notes of plastic phenols and mild caramelized grains.Light body. The flavor is stale as well with a papery pale malt presence. There’s a slight herbal presence with restrained cascade hops and a metallic note. Slightly oxidized and one dimensional.

Bottle. Horrific, solventy, chemical acid aroma, has me recalling in horror. The flavor isn’t much different, a nasty toothpaste + orange juice flavor, wheat, cream. Blech.

Bottled as Michigan Mackinac Summer Ale. An amber beer with a huge orangey head. The aroma has notes of sweet malt as well as light notes of butter and diacethyl. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and light notes of butter, leading to a dry spicy finish.

Bottle. Pours a coppery amber with little head. Aromas are faint and kind of grassy with a little bit of caramel and lemon. Flavor is largely bitter with a little bit of a caramel malt presence, but this is pretty unspectacular.
