Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a deep brown to black with a finger of beige head that lingers. Bourbon and oak on the nose with chocolate as it warms ups. More oak on the palate with light espresso, cacao and vanilla. Slight warming finish with more bourbon, oak and chocolate. Very nice low ABV BA stout.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a deep brown with a finger of beige head that lingers. Big mikan, tangerine, pineapple and mango aromas on the nose. Faint hit of cocoa on the front end of the palate, but more fresh squeezed citrusy hops next to bright tropical fruit. Balanced finish without any bitterness. Blindfolded it would be extremely hard to tell this has dark malt at all. Impressive!

Fairly hazy deep copper and nice bronze coloured body with a frothy and large three to four centimetre tall deep tan coloured head that fades slowly and covers the side of the glass with noticeable head. Aroma of deep and aromatic, piney and dank, grassy and herbal scents with a lot of hop bitterness here in the nose and a kick of resinous and sweet notes coupled with some deep caramelised sugar and rich malty characteristic that is pungent throughout. Medium-bodied; Rich and deep grassy and especially herbal, piney and flavourful hop flavours are balanced with strong malt and sweetness and show a lot of range, especially with deep hoppiness. Aftertaste is rich and robust with a lot of grainy and bitter, bready and caramel flavours and a dank, piney richness that really shows the hop bitterness at the end. Overall, a very old school, grainy and dank, piney IPA that doesn't apologise or back down - it's strong and deep, but balanced with a lot of malt and sweetness, too. Great to have from Michigan, especially the Upper Peninsula - very fresh - a nice old-school IPA option! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Kroger [grocery] in Livonia, Michigan on 23-October-2022 for US$8,99/six pack, packaged on 21-September-2022 and sampled at my house here in Washington on 09-November-2022.

12 oz can. Pours a very slightly reddish amber with a white head. Berry aroma suggesting a bit of tartness. Light blueberry/raspberry flavor with lightly toasty pale malts. Light, but it works okay.
