Rating: 4/5
Notes: That is what an orange creamsicle tastes like if you were to melt it into liquid and drink it. Almost exactly. It’s a great beer but a little heavy on the lactose for me. Sweet and enjoyable.
Can Art: Always a cool block print design but nothing new in terms of new design. This is the default can template/design.

Brewery: Level Beer – Portland, OR
Brewery IG: @levelbeer

Rating: 4/5
Notes: Great showing from Level again. Always solid beers from Level. This one was a little on the dry side which I like. Sweet beers can be a bit much especially one after another so it’s nice to see a solid, dry’ish, hazy with some good tropical flavor. I’m getting some melon in there but there’s certainly more I can’t pick out.
Can Art: Sick. Taking me back to the good old days of cheesy board games growing up but in reality, I still play cheesy board games all the time.
Drinkage: I drank this one fresh but not sure how many days after canning. I’ll start keeping track in the future.

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.

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.

Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: Very enjoyable and tasty beverage. The description of it mentioned notes of malt but I didn’t get much over the tropical tastes. I got some pineapple (it always stands out to me) and
some slight grapefruit.
Can Art: Great illustration while also being simple. Nice.

Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: Juicy and drinkable. A tasty beverage right here. I get tastes of mango. Little bit sweet but not too bad. I always love citra hops but they got a bit downed out by the other hops in there especially the mosaic cryo’s.
Can Art:. Nice. I enjoy the robot design and cool cool scheme.
