Not that hazy, not that tasty, not that aromatic, not really anything to seek or get excited about, but it's drinkable and well-made, from a reliable source, so there's that. it's just another filler in the follower crowd, this stupid hazy trend needs to end. craft beer is jumping the shark

A hazey golden look with a slight head. A slight dank sour aroma, the taste has a similar but more complete profile. A chewy feel that goes down smooth with a slightly sour aftertaste. A very good, but not great beer.

12oz can, two months old
You guessed it, it's hazy. Smell is stinky armpit and pineapple juice. Taste is more citrus fruit, along with some alcohol and rust, pretty sweet and fruity, crowd pleaser
I hate the name, and only just realized it's a weed reference... Now I hate it more

12 ouncer with canned “1-4-22” dating stamped on the bottom.
Haze lovers will be pleased with the look…and I get pineapple and lots of oranges on the sniff.
Pleasing juiced up IPA, with more tropical fruity goodness all over the palate..better then respectable take on the style by one of the older and larger craft producers.
Good value and well worth a try.

APPEARANCE: Hazy golden with a big head of off-white suds. Lace all the way.
NOSE: Juicy hops, very pleasant with pineapple, citrus and mango.
TASTE: Smooth and juicy, easy-drinking and well-done entry into the growing hazy IPA world.

12oz can.
L: Hazy orange colour with a thick, soapy head that collapses quickly but leaves arcs of lacing.
S: Spicy, earthy citrus.
T: Orange pith and almost-ripe mango. Refreshingly light finish.
F: Medium/light body with a decent slick and a dry finish.
O: It’s a decent beer but, for 7.2% falling-over juice, too understated.

A decent Hazy IPA for under $10 a six. Fluffy head with some lace. Aroma is sweet tropical fruits, mostly melon and peach. Taste is fruity to start, with dry hops finish. Tastes great, and has a kick. Another good one from Oskar Blues.

Nice look for a little while, but the head doesn't last. Really pleasant nose with a pasture filled with grapefruits. Taste ok but not a lot of complexity. Worth a repeat but not a world beater.

O---A nice one. I'd get this again.

355 ml can, from Vinmonopolet (Kvadrat or Nettbutikken). ABV is 7.2%. Slightly hazy golden colour, large white head. Moderate but pleasant aroma of fruity, spicy and herbal hops, hints of crushed white grapes. Medium sweet flavour, with the same elements as the aroma. Low bitterness.

Perfectly adequate hazy IPA, which in this market filled with perfectly adequate IPAs, merits it a grade B rating. In other words, there is nothing to distinguish it. You can do better than this.

12oz can. Stamped on can bottom canning date is '08/05/20' (almost three months in the can). From a variety pack.
Pale gold colored body, with some cloudiness. Two fingers of white head upon pouring. As this recedes good strings of lacing are left behind.
Aroma of peach and melon, along with some apricot.
Taste is sweet and fruity, with the melon and peach being prominent. Bitterness was not included in this beer.
Medium mouth feel, with a soft texture. Very good carbonation.
There is a very slight bite at the end, but no bitterness to speak of. Easy to drink. Probably too sweet to session.

12oz can - very hazy just like the name suggests. A sweeter IPA with flavours of biscuit, pineapple and ripe tropical fruits. Hoppiness is low for an IPA but highly drinkable.

by Shanex from France
I could purchase this beer in my local beer store, for about 4€ just this morning.
I poured it into a Guinness Pint leaving a two inches white head fading fast. 7,2% ABV.
It’s an orange and very opaque looking brew.
On the nose, orange, apricot, mango, lemon and peach which makes for a nice “tropical” mix to it.
Taste following the nose, the aforementioned fruits are predominant, this is an easy drinking NEIPA, with a slightly bitter finish.
Mouthfeel is a medium-bodied with a good carbonation, and pretty creamy.
Overall: This is excellent! Outstanding take on the hazy IPA from Oskar Blues, off the handful of NEIPA/Hazy beers I’ve had, I believe that this one is more balanced, less “juicy” and has a more bitter finish. Definitely worthy, and I’d buy again if given the chance.

Nice aroma and even though it’s a Hazy IPA, it has plenty of west coast flavor with lots of piney notes, buttery biscuits and peppery spices to go along with the grapefruit, orange peel and citrus tastes. Very drinkable, good stuff.
