Can from Mr. Hop, drunk at home on a Tuesday. Moderate citrus-ish light grain nose. This has a wee bit more dry hop flavor than most alkfrei IPAs, a hint of strawberry, not a lot of bitterness though. Decent, balanced mouthfeel. Pretty tasty and better than many recent full alcohol IPAs I've tried.

Day14 in the Beer Republic calendar, and brewery #2 of the calendar that's now out of business. Deep Orange, small head, mild hearty pumpkin pie nose that's rather inviting. Medium sweetness, some metallic astringency, maybe too grapefruit-ish hops that don't blend well with pumpkin spice? It's drinkable but not great. Well at least I managed one pumpkin beer this year even if it's 2 months after Halloween season.

Can from day 12 of the Beer Republic Advent calendar, packaged June 16th, drunk watching Pluribus. Hazy orange, nice head, citrus pineapple resiny nose. One of the best aging beers of the calendar so far, still pretty juicy, extra point for that despite being well past its prime. Good mouthfeel and powerful, smooth bitterness - likey like!

Drunk at home, thanks to Lars for the tip where I could find it. Lightly hazy brown, tall head, roasty caramel nose. Hint of sweetness and a good earthy hop content. Excellent complexity for "just" a Dunkel, this is fantastic!

Bottle from Mr. Hop drunk at home whilst cooking Mexican. Light lime green with moderate head. Nose of Sprite with a lime slice, it's definitely not smelling like cactus. Flavor is gas station bathroom hand soap, aftertaste is urinal cake. I have to admit this one is hard to finish even after I donated half to my wife.

Beer Republic Advent Calendar day 9. Packaged June 18, 2025 in Oregon, drunk in Germany. Nearly clear, light gold, small head. Spicy citrus hop nose on light caramel. Smooth bitterness, caramel candy lozenge, lots of citrus and a sparkling front-palate mouthfeel. Pretty good one, would love to have it fresh.

Can from Beer Republic advent calendar day 8, drunk after cutting cavities in the bass guitar body. Torrefied ash is a pain! Now the beer... Light orange color, nice head, clementine lemon nose. Pretty juicy, nice mouthfeel that's not too sweet or thick. A bit lacking, can't read brew date due to a print failure but it tastes a bit aged. Otherwise, decent bitterness and flavors.

Can from Mr. Hop drunk at home watching the kiddo. Lightly hazy gold, moderate head. Nose of light caramel and citrus, a bit of a grainy WC IPA. Flavor is quite good, but definitely some of the standard non alc weird-flavors. A bit more hoppy juiciness than average for these kinds of beers but also some odd rye-like earthy hints. Very good mouthfeel for NA. High in the rankings!

Bottle from Mr. Hop, drunk watching the world end on Good Omens. Clear gold, small head, artificial fruity-like nose like mango peach candy. Wow, it's like drinking liquid children's perfume or something. Not only does it taste artificial but the ingredients confirm aroma, artificial sweetener, and so on. I guess I've said enough.
