Collaboration with Slice Beer Company.

We teamed up with our buds in NorCal at Slice Beer Company to bring you our latest TDH Hazy DIPA "Blurry Buds". Hopped with a mind bending array of Citra, Citra Cryo, Citra Incognito, Bru-1, HBC 586 and Moteuka, this one is packed tight with delicious tasting notes of tropical pineapple, wild berries, juicy orange and bright lime zest. I think we can all agree that 2021 went by like a blur so grab your buds and start 2022 off the hazy way.

Snuck over to North Park to pick up my BA Macaroons Before Dying beer and a couple other 4-packs. North Park’s website called it “We teamed up with our buds in NorCal at Slice Beer Company to bring you our latest TDH Hazy DIPA "Blurry Buds".

Poured a light bright golden hazy color with 3-to-4 fingers of rocky white head. Could see lots of bubbles creeping up along the sides of the glass. World-class uneven foamy lacing. Excellent foamy retention. (Sight - 4.50)

Smelled orange juice, papaya, pineapple, mango, guava, pine, lime, Citra, Motueka and HBC 586. A little better than the can. (Smell - 4.00)

Tasted a little better than the nose. In order got orange juice, papaya, pineapple, pine needle, lime, mango, guava, Citra, HBC 586, Motueka and lingering spice. Fairly smooth for 8.5 pct. ABV. (Taste - 4.00)

Medium body. Creamy texture. Lively carbonation. Long, juicy, spicy finish. (Feel - 4.25)

Another outstanding North Park hazy IPA. Maybe not quite as good as I hoped but still outstanding. (Overall - 4.25)
