We drink beer even when we are not writing about it
Does it seem to you that from the moment our dear organizer of the perennial #beersaturday contest, Mr. 
Two months without invitations to share beers that we drink, taste and enjoy, in my case they did not in any way affect the fact that I don't think about beer, I don't talk about beer, I don't order beer in restaurants, I don't buy beer in stores and I don't drink beer.
Namely, without the "pressure" due to the competitive nature of the posts I write and the rush of adrenaline I get when I think about #beersaturday, the #Beer I taste now tastes even sweeter.
Or does it just seem that way to me, just because of the type of beer I drink?
In an earlier comment, I mentioned that I was unpleasantly surprised by the price of a can that I took out of the fridge without first asking what the price was.
I bought, drank and presented a lot of craft beer from the Robocraft brewery here. And I have never questioned the price. The prices of 0.33l cans were around 2.5e.
But when the saleswoman at the checkout told me 6.5e, I was really surprised.
So which beer did I take from the fridge?
HOP ARRAY Double NEIPA
I knew it was a specific IPA beer as soon as I saw the style.
Double NEIPA and orange juice in the ingredients promised a unique taste.
And I knew it was different from the previous Robocrafts as soon as I picked up the tin.
On this beer, unlike all the previous ones, there is no paper label.
The graphics are done directly on the can, which gives this product a feeling of a much better finish that can be felt under the hand, so maybe it also announces the quality in smell and taste?
I knew that the smell and taste would be very interesting to me, because of the orange juice that was added to the beer.
A double-hopped beer would already have aromas of citrus and tropical fruits by itself, however, here the taste of squeezed orange prevailed in the air and on the tongue.
And of a slightly sweeter variety, because I had the impression, as if I were drinking some sweet juice.
The only thing that suggested that it was not juice, but a slightly stronger beer, was that 8% alcohol 😀
I poured the beer into a glass, which retained the aromas and quite dense and thick foam, and the color of the beer in the glass, almost orange, opaque, promised interesting sips.
I don't know if I liked the color, the smell, the taste, or maybe the look of the can, and maybe the feeling of mild drunkenness after drinking it in a few minutes, but it certainly justified the price I paid for it.
Will I repeat the purchase of those new editions of Robocraft brewery and with their slogan: "Join the revolution" and choose someone else?
I certainly will.
And I will taste them regardless of whether it will be #beersaturday or any other day, because good and quality beer is acceptable for all occasions and all days of the week.
For this beer, which I was lucky enough to find, since it is not in the standard Robocraft offer, due to the cooperation with the Polish Brewery from Gdansk, they wrote the following:
"Hop Array is a high-powered Double NEIPA brewed in collaboration with Poland's Rockmill Brewery — a fusion of two hop-obsessed systems operating at full capacity.
This 8% juice reactor is loaded with waves of citrus energy, driven by a bold infusion of orange juice that amplifies its soft, hazy body. Expect bursts of fresh-squeezed orange, tropical signals, and a smooth, pillowy mouthfeel, all balanced with a calibrated hop bitterness.
On the label, a robotic windmill spins endlessly — harvesting hop energy and converting it into pure liquid output. This is not just a beer. It's a fully optimized hop array.".
The small windmill, from the Polish Brewery logo, also served as the model for the colorful windmill on this can, and I liked it so much that I cut the can so that I could see it in 2D, without the curvature and loss of detail.
If you ever have the opportunity to come across this great fortified beer, definitely taste it, but be careful about the amount you drink. It is very tasty and drinkable, so it will easily fool you and cause you to drink a second or even a third can, after which I believe you would be in trouble 🙂

And while I was enjoying this beer, my eyes fell on a coaster with details of Paris. A little drunk on beer, I began to think about a trip to that city. The "problem" is in sight for me as well 🙂
Cheers!
