Good "snowy" evening!

New Trail always delivers and tonight's selection is another fine example. We both loved this Hazy IPA. It has great flavor and is a smooth, easy drinker. Wayne rates this one 4 mugs and Heather rates it 4.5. Cheers!!

Picked the correct Powerball +1 number the previous drawing, hence a second free play, possibly 1.1 billion reasons to be thankful later tonight…jackpot! Beer pours similar in color to Linebacker BRU. Taste is good however juicier than I prefer and the masking of the high ABV a bit strong in the aftertaste. 🍺🍺🍺

This is great festive beer from New Trail! Love the can and the cause, and love the taste! It is a strong beer alcohol wise but doesn’t taste like it! Not heavy and the juice taste is delicious. 4.5 mugs! I drank this while sending Christmas cards, hope I got the addresses right haha! Cheers to a little over 1 week to go!🎄😳

Ho, Ho, Ho a little on this report but saw wwe last night. Last night was awesome and so was this beer. I t was very easy to drink especially being a double IPA. Loved that it was 9% ABV. Also loved the can art because I think flannel during the Christmas season to keep you warm. I would give this beer 4.5 mugs. Well since I am day behind, I need to go drink the one for today.

Nothing better than a good quality flannel! And in this I mean the shirt and the beer! Was nervous about the 9 abv and how strong/boozy it may taste for a hazy but overall thought it was smooth! I also had to play some catch up this one made me feel al the way caught up! Good quality beer from a reliable brewery! 4 mugs!

Very interesting contrast in hazy IPAs from New Trail with the last two beers. Interestingly enough I get a white wine grape flavor with a tad bit of citrus. A smooth drink for a hazy, but still tasty! I give this 3.25 mugs!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Juicy and fruity tropical hops dominate the aroma — think pineapple, citrus, and melon. I love a good hazy beer and this didn’t disappoint.

I really liked Flannel Weather Pink. At 9% it’s a beer that works well for a one and done night. From what I recall, I like this version better than the other Flannel Weather beer I’ve had.

4.25🍺

This was my favorite can art of the Advent so far! I absolutely love the cause and the bright pink can. Caleb and I both really enjoyed this one. I think I need to try it again when I’m not so congested to ensure I’m tasting it correctly, but we’d both gave this one 4 mugs.

We both landed on a 4.2 rating for this one, thanks Gord!! We both loved this beer and would buy it to have at the house, but that’s no surprise as we’re new trail fans through and through. We both thought there was a perfect amount of haze and the tropical flavors came through enough to mask the fact that it’s 9%. Brandon also says this is his favorite can art so far!

Back from being sit for the last 3 days and this is what I come back to… I double hazy 🥴
I usually love these beers so I’m gonna count this on not being 100%. Lot of flavor. Each sip hits me right away. Gonna be a good night.

2.75 mugs from me! 🍺

I am behind and playing catch up tonight and tomorrow. This was a great beer! I love hazy IPAs and this one has much flavor! The flannel can art is perfect for the winter time. The 9% is also a great touch, I would definitely have a couple of these!

Love the can design! I’ve been a fan of flannel weather in the past so I was thrilled to have this on the calendar. It delivered per usual! 9% never hurt anyone either! 4.2 from me.
