India Pale Ale made with all Michigan ingredients
Brewed in partnership with Pure Michigan as an homage to the splendor surrounding us, Pure Michigan IPA is made entirely with ingredients grown on Michigan farms. This is a quintessential IPA with balanced hop bitterness and malty, fruited sweetness. Like pouring all the best parts of the Michigan outdoors into a glass and imbibing thanks to malt from Empire Malting Co, Great Lakes Malting Company and Valley View Farms, and hops from MI Local Hops and Hop Alliance. Cheers to Pure Michigan!

Pours lightly hazy gold with a big off white head. It has a mild aroma with citrus and malt. The flavor is moderately bitter with a little citrus and toasted grainy malt. It tastes like many session IPAs. I see the abv at least fits that style. It’s okay though underwhelming. I checked the date on the bottom of the can and verified that it’s from this year’s release (July 2024).

now rebranded a Fall IPA - pretty sure I've had before, but a classic IPA that hits the spot

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clear orange gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Orange zest, pine and grapefruit on the nose. Palate is similar with a nice dry finish.

12 oz bottle. Pours golden with a very light haze and a white head. Pine and grapefruit hoppy aroma. Flavor is pine blending with more grassy, herbal hops. Fairly bitter and dry. Medium body, clean palate. Good.
