The First release in our “New Orthodox” IPA series, M-43 is designed to accentuate the deep and complex character from the combination of Calypso, Amarillo, Citra, and Simcoe hops. Citrus and Tropical notes of Pineapple, Mango and Grapefruit come through in the huge, yet surprisingly delicate aroma. The flavor backs these aromas with a soft, pillowy mouthfeel. Hop bitterness is not particularly intense, which leads to a very drinkable, juicy IPA even non-IPA fans love. The Haze is not from yeast, but rather from an interplay of lipids from the malted oat and oils and acids which naturally occur in the hand selected Dry hops. This beer is a perfect interplay between top grade malt and hops, MI water and brewing technique which cannot be faked.

Canned 7/30/21, drunk 8/14/21.
Moderately hazy, not thickly-so, bronze-golden-maize with a small, white head that quickly dissipates.
Great mix of yellow fruit, pine, citrus juice and honey-like malts, with a hint of caramel and alcohol warmth. Clean and without any obnoxious overly-yeasted character (no big bubble gum).
Soft and malty in the mouth, with good attenuation. A fair bit of acidity and caramel-like character depart from a traditional NEIPA, yet it's still quite juicy and very soft. I like the cleanliness and crispness, with snappy acidity and soft but dry malt character. Maybe a touch too alcoholic and piney, but it's a good departure from the norm. Fruity and juicy character lingering.

Pours deep hazy gold into a shaker. Fluffy white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Dusty tropical fruit skin aromas. Soft with tangerine and lime upfront turning to hot caramel in the medium length finish.

The aromas are fresh citrus hobs with dry grain and pale malt. Flavors are like nose, juicy citrus that is slightly sweet up front balanced with great carbonation and nice bitter. Excellent body and finish. Could drink a lot of these.

More from the backlog... Pours hazy pale yellow. It has a very citrusy aroma with grapefruit and orange. The flavor is sweet and citrusy with a hoppy finish. There’s grapefruit, orange, and hop resin. Medium body. It’s quite good but I’m not convinced it’s $9 a pint good.
