Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a thick, glowing straw gold color with a finger of white foam that dissipates quickly. Fresh citrus, pineapple and guava aromas on the nose. More of the same on the palate, but a watery finish. Nice pineapple orange juice notes with some dank that lingers.

Can. Pours clear gold with a white head that dissipates nearly completely. Aroma has a strong hay note with a touch of grass and a slightly sweet straw underlying. Flavor is also hay forward with growing straw and a bit of grass in the finish.

Cloudy medium orange-brown body, thin-medium cream head. Nose citrus pulp, rind, and tropical fruit. Body chewy and creamy with pink grapefruit rind, guava, floral notes, and pine. Long rindy (but only moderately bitter) finish. Tangy and fairly sweet, with some boozy warmth. It's an interesting beer that perhaps awkwardly straddles the West Coast-New England IPA hinterland.

Black body, ring of light cream/latte carbonation. Aroma chewy, mostly dark fruits and roasted malts. The body is roasty and chocolatey with a firm vinous, almost tart red wine character. Tastes like a hybrid of a Belgian Quadrupel and an Imperial Stout, and probably deserves further evaluation.

Murky mango puree body, thin to medium cream head. Aroma earthy and yeasty with banana and passionfruit. Body a trifecta of fermented tropical fruits (passionfruit and fleshy stone fruits), citrus, and grassy-floral-potpourri notes. Creamy and soft but with a stronger and longer-lasting citrus bite than most of their other IPAs.

Black body, ring of light cream/latte carbonation. Aroma huge coconut, chocolate, and booze, like an alcohol-sodden Almond Joy. Thick, rich body with milky coconut ensconced in dark chocolate. A boozy, sweet dessert beer.

Murky carrot/mango orange body, no head. Sour, super-sweet orange nose, candy-like and floral with hints of vanilla. Body tart but not sour, like orange sherbet with a cerealy undertone. Thick and dense with a pleasing bite.

Hazy deep orange body, medium cream head. Aroma big sticky fermented fruits (peach, apricot, papaya) and honey. Huge, sweet body, a floral-tropical fruit hops tea with underlying onion and grassy notes, but hardly any bitterness. Alcohol was evident mostly as warmth in the chest. It's a sweet one that could perhaps benefit from a touch more bite, but it's still exceptional.
