Beer: Blueberry Parfait
Style: Sour
ABV: 6.4%
IBU: –
Hops: ?

Brewery: Fieldwork Brewing – Berkeley, CA
Brewery IG: @FieldworkBrewingCo
———————————–
Rating: 4.5/5
Notes: Sweet as expected but damn good. This sour isn’t very tart but you can certainly taste the sourness in there. The blueberry is perfectly done with this one. Not too strong and not too weak. This does taste like a parfait. Great job.
Can art: Simple like many other Fieldworks beers but cool blueberry illustration

Shout out to @be_ermore for the hook up! Thank man!

Brewery: Great Notion – Portland, OR
Brewery IG: @greatnotionpdx
———————————–
Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: Another great hazy beer from Great Notion. This one has a unique hop flavor and is certainly different than many other hazies that they put out. A little sweet but not too much. Very hoppy and thick.
Can Art: Always a cool block print design but nothing new in terms of new design. This is the default can template/design.

Rating: 4.75/5
Notes: Awesome. So very good and enjoyable. It’s incredibly smooth and highly crushable. This might be one of the best DIpas I’ve had. It wasn’t too sweet or
overly juicy at all but it was so drinkable. Nice job!
Can art: Trippy

Beer: Citra Mango Milkshake

by

Beer: Citra Mango Milkshake

Style: IPA
ABV: 7%
IBU: 30
Hops: Citra
———————————–
Brewery: Moonraker Brewing – Auburn, CA
Brewery IG: @moonrakerbrewing
———————————–
Via trade and courtesy of @bud358 – Thank You!
———————————–
Rating: 3.75/5
Notes: This is a great example of a milkshake IPA but it misses the mark for me. The citra hops are great and some of my favorite hops but the combo of citra and mango just didn’t jive fully with me.
Can art: Nothing crazy going on here but it’s decent. I can’t say I fully agree with the font choice.
