Hazy Bones
Flying Fish Brewing Company

The head dies fast but the nose is sweet and fruity with mango and pineapple. Flavor is a little more balanced and restrained although there is solid resin at work in the aftertaste. For tropical flavor, This is pretty solid if not overly unique.

 

sour tasty

Two twelve ounce cans were emptied entirely into a clear glass liter mug. First impression, this isn't much more hazy than an American Adjunct Lager. It's brightly golden-amber and much more translucent than opaque. The abundance of carbonation contributes more to its cloudiness than anything else. Despite all the noticeable bubbles, the off-white head lasted mere seconds. There's some bready sweetness, more like freshly made pasta to be smelled. The hoppy counterbalance isn't bad, neither. Its taste is pleasantly balanced between hops and malt, although neither is particularly pronounced. But, that's expected from a hazy IPA, even one that really isn't. Much like the non-existent head, there's no glass lacing, but the mouthfeel isn't bad. It runs a little flatly, despite all the initial carbonation. The hop bite is nice, sort of in a piney, but clean way. The malt backbone is sweetly deep enough to offer another taste layer. Maybe this was mislabeled, as it looks and drinks more like a West Coast IPA than a hazy. That may disappoint those that prefer the hops in a beer muddled, but outside of perhaps being mislabeled, this is a pleasant, yet far from perfect IPA.

 

All around nice beer.

 

 

 

Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of grapefruit, pineapple. Taste is the same as the aroma, some mango as well. Feels medium/full bodied in the mouth and overall is an enjoyable beer.

 

 

Can pour into a tulip glass.
Murky gold appearance with decent head and retention. Nose is citrus fruit, grapefruit, orange, pineapple. Taste follows the nose. Mouthfeel is creamy and moderately carbonated.

I did not smell or taste any notes od the claimed pineapple mango or melon.
