The Last Beer Call Champion: Breakside Brewery IPA.

After traveling coast to coast, Breakside blew the competition away.

Drinking every beer in Portland since Grant’s and Red Hook were the only new beers on the rack shows how good Breakside is.

Call it scientific research. You want to be certain of the results.

The competition was fierce.

The east coast beers use NW hops? Highland does.

It came in a distant second; every contender was a distant second for last beer call.

More than hops and names, good beer is balanced beer.

You don’t need more alcohol for balance.

Just a good recipe.

Breakside breaks it out.

You can’t call beer Victory from third place on last beer call.

North Street, West Street, East Street, nothing compares to the side of the street Breakside rules.

If a reviewer is to be trusted, believed, you need proof, you need credentials.

Or, you need a beer fan with discerning taste, and not just a long frog tongue.

For better or worse, Becks had a good run in my garage.

Just not good enough to qualify for Last Beer Call and Best Last Beer.

Breakside is the last beer call winner, and you’ll find it at Safeway.

If you find yourself wondering what’s next in the beer world, take a break.

No new beers on the near horizon? Take some drinking time off.

Recharge your batteries with a last beer call of Breakside IPA.

Do that, along with some time to think about what you’ll be missing during the break, and you’ll have a great memory to reflect on.
