Notes / Commercial Description:
Brewed with 100% Centennial hops from the Pacific Northwest and named after the Two Hearted River in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, this IPA is bursting with hop aromas ranging from pine to grapefruit from massive hop additions in both the kettle and the fermenter.
Perfectly balanced with a malt backbone and combined with the signature fruity aromas of Bell's house yeast, this beer is remarkably drinkable and well suited for adventures everywhere.

This is my all time favorite beer, been drinking it for about 10 years now. It has just the right amount of hoppiness for my taste, bold but not over the top.

Never had a good one of these. Never smells particularly hoppy or tastes anything special. Not horrible, but not remarkable. absolutely no reason to drink this when in NY there are so many other way better hop driven beers. Could be I am getting old bottles but the ratings for this beer seem like fake news to me ...

Pours a hazy orange color with little to no head. Not a lot of carbonation either. Smell is definately hoppy, typical for me he style. Initial taste is hoppy with mostly piney flavors then mellow out to a dry bitter finish. Overall a good solid not over the top IPA, I've had pale ales that were stronger in bitterness but this is mild enough to make it enjoyable, would drink again

Pours. Bright vibrant copper to orange. Somewhat opaque. Nice bright white soapy head. Nose is earthy. Pine and floral with a touch of citrus peel to balance. Taste is sweet up front, sweet dough, malt and citrus. That is followed by floral notes, grass and pine. Nice bitter kick to it. Full bodied, not overly creamy but at times it does have that creamy mouthfeel to it. A very good beer that has a little bit of everything from malt sweetness, floral, earth and pine as well as citrus.
