2022--Beer #8: Tickle Parts (Levante Brewing Company)

12/20/2022

Thank you John for the BREWSday, I mean Tuesday beer. Tickle Parts (7.1% ABV) comes from Levante Brewing Company. It is a dry-hopped New England/Hazy IPA that is brewed with El Dorado, Mosaic, and Citra hops paired with tropical fruit juices. This beer is sure to tickle your fancy. Levante Brewing Company first started in a college apartment and officially opened as a brewery in 2015 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. This marks our first PA beer of the advent!

Wow - first beer from PA and it's a winner!! Can is cute and reminds Heidi of "Elmo" for some reason. Probably because Madison and Cassidy had a "Tickle-me-Elmo?" Quite sure that any "tickle-me" toys would be banned from all stores these days! As for the beer, this NEIPA is delicious. Heidi tastes a good punch of pine with a sweet finish from the tropical fruit juices. Says she "could drink this for breakfast IF she was an alcoholic. haha!" She rates this almost perfect beer a 4.5. Keith liked it a lot too. The print font reminds him of "Fruit Striped Gum" which was the best gum in the world for 45 seconds and then it turned into the worst gum in the world "like chewing a boogie." You young kids wouldn't understand... lol. Keith rates this beer a 4 out of 5. Family day or weekend trip to West Chester anyone?? :)

Thankful today that I was productive, unlike yesterday when corporate mandated a password upgrade, which was a complete farce to authenticate more than a dozen times, as well as research usernames and passwords that were wiped from my keychain. Margie is thankful that she didn’t have a password change and had a fine day at work yesterday. Can art is fun, brings smile to our faces just like the label. Well tickle my fancy, pours a nice head out of the can with a nose like entering Troegs. Margie appreciates no bitter face; the finish is not dry and could drink a couple of these. Ron also is a big fan of this beer and brewery…sensational! We are tickled pink with this choice. 4.5 out of 5.

A very delightful IPA for this Tuesday night. Right in line of the ABV that I judge most IPAs. I liked the bitterness that tickles the tongue along with the tropical notes. The golden color and smell of tropical fruits sold me. I rate this beer a 4.2 out of 5. I am thankful that we are getting closer to Christmas and have the opportunity to share and read thoughts from all of you throughout this Brewstravaganza. Hopefully we can all enjoy a few drinks together sometime soon! Cheers! 🍻🎄🎅

Enjoying the beer while watching ELF, what better way to start Christmas! Having my parts Tickled and watching Buddy raise the Christmas spirit! Honestly, this beer is excellent, good aroma, light and crisp as it dances like sugar plums across my palate. Enjoyable flavor with no stinging aftertaste! Smooth and very drinkable, I rate this a 4.8/5. The art of the can is enjoyable with the bright colorful letters amplifying the excitement to having your parts Tickled or enjoying a great beer! This beer is a great taster with a beautiful can! Enjoy my friends!

I am thankful for having off work until Saturday! Tickle Parts has earned a 4.0 out of 5 rating. I’ve actually had one of these before a couple years ago but completely forgot what it tasted like so it was nice to see this one in the bunch. First impression of the can artwork is that it’s simple yet unique and uses lot of different colors very well. On closer inspection, I don’t like that Tickle is hyphenated and think they could have just made the word smaller kept a better flow to the label. For the beer..it pours a perfect color and opacity for my liking! I get a sweet bread scent when taking a sniff. The taste is very fruit and citrus forward with a hoppy finish. It has a velvety texture which make its very enjoyable and easy to drink. Not very much bite either which is nice. Overall a very well made NE IPA made right here in Pennsylvania! 🍻🍻

CORRECTION: Citrus was not the right word to describe the taste…more tropical fruit taste than citrus taste the more I drink!

Tickle parts was a great dry hopped IPA with a balance of hoppiness and citrus taste. I too am a fan of beers at this abv allows for enjoyment while also catching a good buzz that doesn’t wipe ya out. 4 out of 5!

We’re a day late to the game on this one, but it was well worth the wait! The hazy tropical hop flavors are what makes an ideal beer in Maddy’s book, and this one is her favorite of the brewstravaganza so far! She gives this one a 4.7/5. Brandon thought this beer had a strange aftertaste at first, but after a few sips he said it went away and he ultimately enjoyed this a lot too! Not his favorite, but he still gives it a high score of 4/5!
