On tap at Seven Lakes Station, juicy lemon-soured tangerine candy entry picks up gose-styled coriander salting and wildflower-honeyed acridity. Easygoing moderation may crossover to pale ale lovers with a sour side.

TWO ROADS CLEMENTINE GOSE
On tap at Growler & Gill, kettle-soured gose does good job fusing tart clementine orange into stylish salty coriander profile. Lemon-limed salting and cheesecloth funkiness whittle down wimpy white wheat spine.
YAZOO CHERRY DEUX ROUGES
On tap at Ambulance, halfway convincing Merlot-barreled Flanders Red Ale saddles tart dark cherries and acidic citric sourness with dry oaken leathering, but dry Merlot tannins almost escape the senses. Lightly vinous balsamic acidity spreads to citric-soured cherry finish.
PLATFORM PEACH CRUSHER BERLINER WEISS
On tap at Seven Lakes Station, tart peach adjunct adds sweet ‘n sour nuances to mildly acidic lemon liming and casual woodruff syruping. Milk-soured peach-apricot yogurt finish casually fades away.
SINGLECUT AUGMENTED RASPBERRY WILD ALE
On tap at Seven Lakes Station, acidic brettanomyces yeast soaks salty lemon spritz and smoky peppercorn nuances surrounding tart raspberry theme. Herbal woodruff syruping drapes tartly soured raspberry vibe. Tannic green grape and lime increase vinous nature.
BURIAL THE SHIMMERING APPEARANCE OF SILK OATWINE
On tap at Ambulance, audacious red wine-barreled oats-fortified winter warmer not clearly defined. Tannic red wine esters barely register as mildly acidic wild yeast saddles its sweet ‘n sour fruiting. Inconspicuous “cantaloupe rind, pear and mango” illusions warble by candied lemon tartness and gin-teased grapefruit juicing. Musky corn-liquored pilsner malt spine seems outta place.
BURIAL THE PLAGUE BRETT IPA
On tap at Ambulance, light brettanomyces yeast pungency affects sour tropical fruiting and mild peppery burn. Dainty mango, papaya, guava and kumquat souring backed by groaty barley wheat malting.
EQUILIBRIUM DHOP8 DOUBLE IPA
On tap at Ambulance, organoleptic hop-oiled experiment (with bold 8.5% ABV) drapes zesty lemon-limed yellow grapefruit juicing and mild orange-tangerine-pineapple tartness across evergreen-spiced minting. Naturally carbonated re-fermented sugaring adds lactic respite but light vegetal skunking seems out of place.
STONE BUZZER BEATER DOUBLE IPA
On tap at Growler & Gill, juicy mandarin orange, tangerine and bruised orange tang integrated into assertive hop profile of strong 9.4% ABV IPA. Lemon peel bittering contrasts ancillary nectarine, cantaloupe and orange sweetness at the backend.
NIGHT SHIFT THE 87 DOUBLE INDIA PALE ALE
On tap at Seven Lakes Station, tropical ‘hop bomb’ allows lemony grapefruit juiciness and tangy orange-mango-tangerine splurge to loom above lightly embittered juniper-licked coniferous herbage. Tidy citric-spiced continuance sweetened by floral accents and honeyed pale malts. In the can, lemony orange and grapefruit zesting picked up floral-sweetened pineapple, peach and mango tang as bitter juniper bite gained strength alongside sticky pine resin and fresh-cut grass astringency.
BREAKSIDE KIDS THESE HAZE
On tap at Ambulance, juicy tangerine tang gains zesty lemon spritz above crisp pilsner malting for sessionable IPA. In the can, despite its hazy moniker, this ain’t no New England-styled IPA since its clear amber hue and moderate body go against the grain. Floral citrus zesting gains proper hop astringency over dry pale malts. Spritzy lemon fizz awakens mild grapefruit-orange tang by the finish.
LIC BEER PROJECT END-TO-END INDIA PALE ALE
On tap at Seven Lakes Station, fine double dry-hopped IPA sprays juicy pineapple, orange, tangerine and mango tropicalia across softly resinous wood tones and brisk Citra hop spicing. Subtle lemon meringue, peach and Chardonnay illusions trail off.
