Hazy IPA
Fegley's Bethlehem Brew Works

 

Oh No! The telltale warning sign of a brew ruined by wheat appears as a pint can is emptied, eventually, into a clear glass Imperial pint mug. Billowing stark white heads usually mean bad things about a brew. This one was stark white, billowed, then left uneven lacing in the glass. A sure sign of trouble. Remember when IPAs had a delightful aroma of sweet malt and hops, with maybe some yeast and/or alcohol contributing? This one certainly wouldn't refresh that memory. The body of the brew, now getting passed the enormous white head, is a hazy and dirty blond. As expected, the taste is bland. It may be hazy, but it's hardly juicy. In fact, there are many juices that pack more of a taste than this wheaty mess. If the overall goal is to consume some alcohol without any taste character, just do a vodka and club soda. This has a mildly sweet malt backbone, but it's closer to being an invertebrate. Absolutely devoid of any hoppy bite, this is is disappointing to anyone who appreciates any variety of IPA. This from the brewers of Hop'solutely, oh, boy.

 

 

Not a strong hazy for me, muted NEIPA flavor.
