Cheboygan Brewing Company’s Blood Orange Honey Beer

Bottoms Up
By Lynda Wheatley | Dec. 9, 2017

Brace yourself. We’ve got a helluva long haul until spring. And until those clouds crack open and daylight outlasts the dark, you’re going to have to find another source of sunshine. Enter Cheboygan Brewing Company’s Blood Orange Honey. Tastier than a tanning bed and far easier to swallow, this American-style wheat beer brings a much-needed sip of summer to a winter-weary palate. Fresh, local wildflower honey lends a mellow sweetness to a medium-bodied beer that’s brightened with blood orange zest and puree. It’s smooth and softer than your usual citrus beer, with a 5.7%ABV — just enough to keep you smiling while you shovel. Locate it on tap and on shelves via cheboyganbrew.com.
