Lazy Waves Hazy IPA is inspired by some of our favourite West Coast hops that define the style, this Hazy IPA is double dry-hopped to give aromas of peach, citrus and tropical fruit. A soft mouthfeel is balanced with a hint of bitterness for maximum drinkability.

At my lady Pamela's house; canned and chilled, 473mL in a pint glass. From my favourite LCBO at Tecumseh Mall in nearby Windsor. My first beer from the Peterborough, Ontario brewery.

473 mL can from the LCBO; no discernible packaging date. Served slightly chilled.
Pours hazy and translucent, its golden yellow-hued body topped with just over an inch of soapy white head. Several minutes later, it has been reduced to a frothy collar and patchy cap, with a modest ring of lace adhering to the glass - looks normal enough so far. I'm getting grapefruit, stone fruit and passion fruit on the nose, with hints of berries and floral hops.
The flavour profile is similar - tropical fruit and citrus, with peach also figuring in strongly. Grapefruit, passion fruit, floral hops and melon are also present, concluding with a moderately bitter, earthy & resiny finish; the resiny/earthiness persists into the aftertaste. Medium-full in body, with average carbonation that adds the barest semblance of crispness to this brew's smooth, soft mouthfeel. Easy enough to toss back.
Final Grade: 3.54, a B grade. KLB Lazy Waves is a passable pale ale, but I don't think it'll move the needle much for most IPA loving beer geeks. Despite its visual haze, this brew doesn't actually have a whole lot in common with the modern prototypical "hazy IPA" - however, the description on the label references West Coast hops, indicating that they weren't going for a juicy hazebomb in the first place - maybe more of a hybrid? Sadly, even when analyzed through the lens of a WCIPA, I don't think it comes off as much better than average. I'll give this another shot at some point, but for now I'm happy to file it under 'meh'.
