Crooked Tree IPA
"Inspired by West Coast I.P.A.'s, but brewed with Michigan style. The Crooked Tree is heavily dry hopped to give it a big aroma of pine and citrus. The flavors are big, yet very balanced between fresh hops and malt. Often described as "grapefruit" our hops give this beer an excellent fruit flavor that finishes dry, crisp, and clean. It will pour a nice deep copper color with a bit of haziness. Because of our almost patented "Intense Transfer Methods" our Crooked Tree has won several medals in the India Pale Ale category."
Cut and paste from the website, but I have to agree with their description of very big but balanced flavor, nice and hoppy just as an IPA should be. I'm beginning to drink more and more of the locally brewed offerings and have to say that I've been impressed with the talent that the Michigan craft brewers have been showing. IMHO, this is definitely worth a try.
