A kicked-up version of Haze, our Double IPA, Very Hazy is a beer that makes us Very Happy! Very Hazy conveys all the beautiful flavors of Haze, but with even greater depth and potency. Pungent grapefruit notes greet your palate while an underlying current of soft tropical fruit dances in the background. Just the right amount of bitterness balances the sweet fruit flavors while a velvety soft mouthfeel make you easily (and dangerously!) forget this one clocks in at 8.6% ABV. A beautiful and unapologetic mess of a beer, and one we are most pleased to share with you - enjoy!

Not the biggest Haze fan, but these pumped up versions from Tree House are always amazing. This is beyond dank. I was searching for chunks of hops in the glass. Hops to the point of murdering you palate, it a good way! KJ and VG are better, but still awesome!

Another really good beer from Tree House Brewing. I wouldn't personally say it’s as good as King Julius but more people may prefer since it’s not as strong and sweet. It’s between Gggreen and KJ. Has a very nice aroma and orange citrus taste but not overwhelming by any means. Highly recommend it.

Poured from a can into a teku glass
Appearance – As the name hinted at, the beer pours a super hazy orange juice and tangerine color with a big rocky head of white foam. The head has an amazing level of retention, fading slowly over time and leaving a ton of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is heavy of a orange juice and tropical fruit aroma of tangerine, pineapple and a bit of mango. Along with these aromas comes some strong herbal and floral smells as well as a bit of a grapefruit hop. Other aromas of passionfruit and a bit of lemon and lime are in there as well. With notes of apricot and peach, and a bit of bread rounding it all out a rather inviting aroma is produced overall.
Taste – The taste starts out with a bready and chewy doughy flavor mixed with lots of fruit. The fruit is heaviest of a tropical nature, with lots of tangerine, papaya, pineapple, and passionfruit, but the taste also has a decent showing of apricot and pear. The hops are there from the start, with a decent showing of a herbal and earthy hop flavor paired with some grapefruit. The hop grows stronger as the taste advances, all while the sweet fades a tad. Some more dankness comes to the tongue at the end of the taste transition, and with a bit of mustiness and a raw green hop taste, one is left with a rather malty and juicy, well hopped taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is very thick and chewy with a moderate level of carbonation. Great for the higher abv, malty nature, and mix of hop. Rather well done on the feel.
Overall – Another, slightly more malty, fresh hopped, and thicker, but balanced and very enjoyable brew. Well worth a try if you have the opportunity.

As the extension of Hazy, its got the peach and the orange, but most importantly its got the papaya note. That unique tropical tone that Haze does so well. Beautiful pour, amazing bouquet, great mouthfeel. Just a great DIPA from Tree House. You already know the deal.
