M43

M43 is a popular New England India Pale Ale (IPA) brewed by Old Nation Brewing Company in Williamston, Michigan. It is known for its hazy appearance and juicy, citrus-forward flavor profile. Brewed using a combination of Calypso, Amarillo, Citra, and Simcoe hops, M43 boasts a strong fruit aroma with notes of pineapple, grapefruit, and tangerine. The addition of oats and wheat in the brewing process contributes to its hazy appearance and gives M43 a rich, creamy mouthfeel.

The name M43 is derived from Michigan State Highway 43, which runs near the Old Nation Brewing Company's location. Since its introduction in 2017, M43 has gained widespread acclaim and has become a flagship beer for the New England IPA style in the Midwest. It consistently ranks high in beer rating websites and is celebrated for balancing its intense fruity flavors with a well-rounded bitterness.
