Baby Hazy
BrewDog

12 ounce can, canned on 01/29/26, Brewdog USA brewed, label says 3.2% ABV. Thanks to my buddy Denis for this! Served in a Teku glass, the beer pours a somewhat hazy dark gold color with an inch off-white head. Head retention is good and there's a lot of lacing. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like honeydew melon, strawberries, passionfruit and a general tropical fruity aroma. The taste is similar to the aroma, with the addition of some peach, wheat, lime and a slightly weird herbal flavor that bugged me somewhat. Mouthfeel/body is light, it's a bit slick and easy enough to drink with a moderate amount of carbonation. Thought this was decent overall, worth getting a can if you want to try it and like session beers.

For such a low abv this is very good

say what you want about brewdog but ive always had fun at their spots, and the st andrews location was no exception, great beer list and awesome service, a killer time, but this is way cool beer too, a session ipa to a degree you really never see, even in scotland where low alcohol beer, ipa included, is the order of the day, but just 3% abv is unheard of, almost nonalcoholic at that point, which they also do, but this really liberates the session when its this low, i love it. its crazy that its still oaty and wheaty and fuller, yeah its easy and dry and all, but it has some body and feels like a hazy, not as reduced as it kind of sounds like it would have to be, and the texture overall is great, but so is the hop profile, talus and citra and krush all chipping in for a palate of berry and lemon and coconut flesh and summer, its awesome, talus is a new favorite and it puts subtle strawberry there with light meyer lemon and clementine from citra, the combination is fire, and there is low not not zero bitterness in this. it even looks right, pale straw color, uniformly hazy, holds an airy white almost belgian looking head, really pretty beer, lighter than many but still definitely a hazy. the hops arent oily and lingering but they are pretty robust, somehow this isnt out of balance in favor of the hops, its dialed right in, nice eater chemistry and neutral ferment too, juicy but quick, i could drink this all day long, and would have if the rest of the beer list wasnt so compelling in here pulling me elsewhere. about as good a session type as ive had in some time, love it on a number of levels but the low alcohol and the super new school hop complexion really make it, brilliant carbonation too. this one is a winner, better than most others have done in this space...
