Brewery: Hopworks Urban Brewery, Portland, OR

Rating: 4/5
Notes: Nicely done grapefruit beer. Lots of times the ones I’ve had are too sweet or too tart. This is right in the middle and very drinkable.
Can art: Sick! Great design.
Drinkage: Damn. One year. No joke. Wow. I just bought it at the store… I’m hoping my review wasn’t too off because of how old it was and that the strong grapefruit made it hold up a bit. ———————————–

Rating: 4.5/5
Notes: These Peach Punches from Great Notion and Block15 are awesome. This version is the Great Notions brewed offering/variation. This one features a bit of salt which I’m trying to figure out if I like it or not. It’s a light salt flavor I get at the tail but it’s certainly unique.
Can Art: Awesome. Always good can block print type can art from Great Notion.
Drinkage: As fresh as possible. 3 days after date on can and day of release.

Rating: 4/5
Notes: A thick milkshake beer from Great Notion. Being lactose sensitive I try to impartially rate/review a milkshake beer but it’s tough when I know it could throw me for a loop. This one was sweet and hoppy with some guava but not overly fruity.
Can art: Never bad art but nothing crazy as it’s the default can
Drinkage: 7 days from date on can

Brewery: Tree House Brewing Company – Charlton, MA
Brewery IG: @treehousebrewco
———————————–
Rating: 4.75/5
Notes: This is top notch, as I expected. Perfect amount of sweetness, hops and tropical flavors. I’m not much for passion fruit so that’s why it doesn’t get the top rating but it’s still very enjoyable and drinkable. I could drink this beer all day and be happy.
Can art: Standard Tree House design.
Drinkage: Fresh. 9 days after can date.
