Had Hazeshift last night.

Look: Nice and hazy like I was expecting.
Smell: Hops that are not juicy or fruity. Seems like a bunch of Simcoe and Summit hops with some Citra thrown in.
Taste: It tastes pretty good, but not "juicy" like I was expecting. I got more of the dank flavors from the hops, not the bright, juicy flavors.
Feel: Had a pretty good mouth feel to it, nice and refreshing.
Overall: It's a good IPA, but calling it a NE style IPA is missing the mark a bit. Maybe the batch I had was a little old or something, but I definitely got dank hops out of this, not the juicy hops that I was hoping for.

Ok beer. Nothing noteworthy or offputting about it. Nice color, presume they are going after the NE style...but those are generally juicy, this is not. Decent enough ipa that probably misses its mark

 

 

Poured from a growler one day after it was bottled. This is a bold IPA. If you are hoping for a subtle, balanced hop presence, move on. This one is a true hop-bomb, in the best way. It's super juicy (I get pineapple and grapefruit) and somewhat dank. Other reviewers stated "light", "balanced", & "medium-bodied". I have to disagree. Although it was brewed as a single IPA, it has the body and mouthfeel to stand up to some double IPA's, but without the malty beckbone. The finish is pleasantly bitter with a stinging/spicy note way in the back of the throat. Throw in the cloudy unfiltered character, and it all makes for a very unique beer, or at least to me since I have not experienced the "east coast style" before. I really hope this becomes a regular release from Bottle Logic. Superb!

 

 

 

Its's hard to say anything bad about this big, juicy IPA, except for its availability. Cheers!

 

not hazy like Treehouse/Trillium but very fruity.... thinner and clearer flavor than a typical Treehouse.... aroma of gummy bears.... i love the 'light-ness' of it. it's very easy to drink! i hope they continue on this trend....
