Notes: I kinda love this. It’s basically a fruit smoothie you’d make before work or to start your day. This is very thick, fruity, and smooth.

Rating: 4.75/5
Notes: Muahahaha. Awesome. Very similar to the Blueberry Muffins with a touch more sweetness, some graininess from the cereal, and super drinkable. Like the Blueberry Muffins it has a sourness but not very tart or sour. It’s there but it’s subtle which I really enjoy.
Can Art: Great design as always. The muffins can with some ghost’ness in there 🙂
Drinkage: Day after can release. 5 days after date on can.

Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: I’ll be honest that the first De Garde beer I had was too weird and out there for me but I’ve seen a million posts about De Garde so I had to give them another shot. This one had lots of enjoyable flavors. Tart for sure but very tasty. The wild yeast is certainly interesting.
Bottle art: Consistent and clean but nothing special. I like their logo.
Drinkage: Month after bottle date

Rating: 4.75/5
Notes: This sour is so ?. Tart as expected but not too overly sweet. Great Notion has it down where they don’t do too much sweetness and the right balance of tart.
Can art: Great talent with the drawing and illustration.
Drinkage: No date on can (usually there is) but it’s pretty fresh around 14 days.
