Astfel, potrivit recenziilor lui Dorin, iată cele 13 cele mai bune beri care au apărut în Moldova în 2015:#13. În final, e o bere echilibrată: nici prea mult dovleac, nici prea condimentată, nici prea multă bere – doar puțin mai „deosebită”. Litra Weizen – 3,0/5Fructe (ananas) și cuișoare intense, dar gust și corp cam plat. Sunstomes Jupiter de la Alehouse – 3,6/5Malț serios cu hamei citric și fructe, într-un corp mare, dar și mătăsos și ușor băubil.
