Brewery: Masons Brewing Company – Brewer, ME
Brewery IG: @masonsbrewingco
———————————–
Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: Great combination of hops which I don’t know very well other than Topaz which give this beer a nice uniqueness. That’s a pretty great quality to have for a beer especially these days when there’s a million hazy, double IPAs. The fruit and sweetness was just right for me.
Can Art: Sweet. My picture doesn’t do it justice. The illustrations are super legit. I love the “now twice as cool as you” as well.
Drinkage: 23 days after can date.

Rating: 4/5
Notes: This beer is my first Kettlehead beer. I specifically sought it out as a buddy from high school helped start it. This beer was a good first showing. It has many tropical flavors and I think I’m picking up in guava the most. Little bit sweet and hoppy.
Can art: Cool design and label.
Drinkage: No date on can but I believe this was fresh ———————————–———————————–

Brewery: Great Notion – Portland, OR
Brewery IG: @greatnotionpdx

Rating: 4.5/5
Notes: Another winner from Great Notion. Some great flavors of peach and strawberry. The mix of different yeasts gives it a unique flavor as well. Not very sweet or dry and very tropical.
Can Art: Crowlers are always cool but nothing crazy for a design.
Drinkage: Drank 5 days from canning.

Brewery: Trillium Brewing Company – Canton, MA
Brewery IG: @trilliumbrewing
———————————–
Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: I found this one in the back of the fridge so I’ll admit it wasn’t as fresh as I would have liked. It was still enjoyable and worth drinking as all the Trillium beers have been for me. Not too sweet, hoppy and worth a try.
Can art: Nice illustration and design in the art part of the can. It’s the standard trillium can design with clean and clear lettering on one side and a cool illustration on the other.
Drinkage: Drank a bit old at around 2.5 months. ———————————–

Brewery: Outcast Brewing – Calgary, Alberta, CA
Brewery IG: @Outcastbrewing
———————————–
Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: Solid, hoppy and full of flavor. It’s a hazy beer that still tastes like a beer. That’s a good thing.
Can art: Nice design. The ship and the burst combined make a cool effect on the can that stands out.
