How We Review

What the brewers say

“The Heiress is our take on a classic Bohemian Pilsner. Refreshing and effervescent with a snow-white head, it’s earthy and floral with a clean, bitter finish. It’s the perfect beer for fans of traditional Pilsners and for converting people whose only reference points for Pilsners are the adjunct versions sold twenty-four to a box.”

What our panel thought

Aroma: “Big bready malt, fresh ground Pilsner malt with some rich toasty notes mixed in. No discernable hops aroma, however.”

Flavor: “A firm bitterness lingers pleasantly throughout. Moderate malt, bready and toasty. Fairly light on the hops flavor. The hops bitterness is a bit pronounced for the style, but it balances the sweetness.”

Overall: “Nice balance of the sweetness and bitterness. A little more hops flavor would be nice, but it’s drinkable and traditional.”

Tröegs Haze Charmer Dry-Hopped Hazy Pale Ale

Haze Charmer emerges from a soft, swirling cloud of oats and unmalted wheat. Vigorous dry-hopping adds a second phase of haze, propping up the oils of El Dorado and Citra hops. Each sip delivers notes of juicy pineapple, fresh grapefruit and candied peach balanced by a hint of white pine and low bitterness. A soft, juicy and hazy pale ale, Haze Charmer is here to cast its spell on you. We taste: juicy pineapple, candied peach and a hint of white pine.

Modern Times Themisto

This spectacle of haze-craft features a lupulin-laden power-combo of Citra, El Dorado, Nelson, and Amarillo hops, resulting in a glorious detonation of tropical fruit and peach character that’s like summer vacation in liquid form.

Surly Stunner Tropical Ale

The concept behind Stunner is simple. A hop bill that leans heavily on Amarillo, El Dorado, and Mosaic hops for tropical notes of mango, orange, and papaya, plus a hit of lactose to add some sweetness. The result gives you a taste of the tropics in the comfort of your own home. We did not know how relevant that concept would become. Refreshing and citrusy, Stunner takes you places even when you can’t go anywhere.

New Belgium Sour IPA

Juicy and tropical notes are lifted to new heights by the addition of our iconic wood-aged sour for a flight of refreshing acidity. Hazy and partly sour with a chance of another.

Crooked Stave Von Pilsner

Combining our brewery's super soft water, traditional floor malted barley and the finest German hops, this unfiltered keller pilsner is crushable. Brewed as a traditional European pilsner, this is what beer tastes like pouring from the wooden vats used to make lager beer for centuries.

Deschutes Luna Jo Cold Brew Coffee Lager

Luna Jo has complex flavor of toffee, dark chocolate, and coffee are all wrapped up in a crisp and refreshing Mexican style dark lager. It’s a dark lager full of rich, nutty aromas and a surprisingly smooth and light finish.

Deschutes Fresh Haze IPA

Fresh Haze IPA from Deschutes Brewery is their hazy twist on Fresh Squeezed IPA. Tropical, mango, citrusy goodness from Mandarina, Amarillo and Cashmere hops. The orange citrus sweetness explodes in your mouth and the almost creamy-like body keeps these lingering flavors around long after each sip.

New Belgium La Folie Grand Reserve: Honey Saffron

“Introducing La Folie Grand Reserve: Honey Saffron. Brewed using Afghan saffron, African wild-bee honey, and specialty malts and served on nitro. We promise you’ve never experienced La Folie like this ... or any other beer.”

Area Two Synopsis Red Fruits

“Synopsis Red Fruits uses wild and cultured yeast strains and age on wood to deliver subtle funk notes, while abundant amounts of fruit create a provocative and refreshingly tart beer. Synopsis Red Fruits delivers a tart, enjoyable pucker. This new series features rotating 2-packs and quarterly drops of new flavors.”

Captain Pabst Seabird IPA

“A highly sessionable, premium, India Pale Ale, crafted with the values of American brewing icon Capt. Frederick Pabst. Seabird is brewed to deliver an exceptional sensory experience. The hop aroma has a slightly piney and citrus nose. The body balances the hops with notes of pine and resin and leads to a smooth, clean finish. An easy-drinking IPA with dimension.”

Tröegs Independent Brewing Field Study

“In the hop fields, we daydream and study, and at the brewery, we tinker and test. For Field Study, dry-hopping delivers notes of ripe grapefruit, mango, pear, and melon. Add a backbone of local rustic pale malt, and Field Study is just what we were after: a slightly hazy yet bright summer daydream come true. We taste: ripe grapefruit, pear, hint of melon.”

Deschutes WOWZA! Lo-Cal Hazy Pale Ale

“WOWZA! this beer is impossibly delicious! With only 100 calories, 4g of carbs, 4% ABV and a crisp, light finish, this full-flavored yet crushable hazy pale ale will make you say…WOWZA! Brewed with Simcoe, Citra, and Cashmere hops to bring notes of candied orange and passionfruit while Callista hops deliver blackberry notes. Our brewers used Chicory Root to bring balance to the body of the beer without affecting the calorie count.”
