Cryo Haze IPA
Untitled Art

 

 

 

 

This beer pours a hazy orange color with a two finger very light orange crown.
Smell is funky. Like a dank or musty funky.
The taste is the same as the nose. Maybe stone fruit in there. But for the most part pretty underwhelming and muted.
Feeling is wet. Sticky. Soft.
Overall, not saying it's bad but a lot of other better options.

A - nice hazy golden Amber color with a white head that sticks and leaves a nice lacing
S- huge peach, papaya, passion fruit, almost vanilla but not cloying, orange, tangerine, pear, slight dank hops
T # definite peach, papaya, passion fruit, orange, tangerine, grapefruit, dank hops - garlic/onion in a good way, ganja, very NeIPA
M & soft mouthfeel. Alc covered. Aftertaste is papaya, orange, tangerine , pineapple
O @ this is a damn good beer across the board. No complaints. Equivalent to Treehouse in my book

Poured from a 16 oz. can into a Snorkel glass. No dating on the can.

Appearance: Opaque, hazy yellow orange body, typical NEIPA look. Frothy head with plenty of lacing left behind in the glass.

Aroma: Bright clean citrus: lemon and grapefruits, melon and a bit of pine.

Taste/Mouthfeel: Non abrasive citrus, light and lemony; plenty of melon. Clean finish with a lingering melon and slight papaya taste.

Overall: A decent IPA that has some really light flavors, but is still satisfying. Something I would drink again, numerous times.
Thanks to Tom_V for this one!

 

Thanks to HIGHPA for this 16 oz. can that arrived late last week in our second Adonis-like trade. Split with no one.

The pour is hazed as promised, not juiced, just hazed, some shade of orange. I’m going to have to start carrying around a dictionary to write reviews or understand beer names. Smells like Juicy Fruit Gum with an undercurrent of Hopslam (that would be honey). Not bad.

Cryo Hazy IPA gets point for originality & being feather duster gentle. The main taste is lemon sucked of all its bitterness, honeydew, citrus, with a finishing kick – OK, caress – of sweet, sticky honey. Bitterness wavers between low & mild tingle. Full. Tasty enough to drink plenty of.

I usually like my IPAs to treat me like a bondage star, but this one is gentle & full of life-affirming pleasantness. Which is stupid. And good. Very good. Nicely done.

 

 

 

16oz can, served in a willi becher glass. Pours a cloudy straw yellow body, slight coppery hue, one and half finger thick white head, good retention, lots of lacing. Smell is a bit of lemon, grapefruit, light caramel, a slight bit of spice, trace breadiness. Flavour is a touch of cantaloupe, grapefruit and citrus, very light caramel sweetness, light to moderate zesty bitterness on the backend. A bit chalky, not unlike the milkshake IPAs coming from the same brewery. Mouthfeel is medium lighter bodied, good carbonation, a moderate zesty bitterness on the finish, refreshing. A fairly solid IPA, nothing ground breaking but solidly constructed in the mold of the other hazy IPAs that have come out of Octopi.

 

Nice opaque orangish-straw color with a fluffy white head and nice lacing. Smell is muted green hops with a hint of lemon and I can almost imagine some honeydew melon. Lemon-lime, orange zest and a faint sweet cracker light malt backbone on the taste. Beautiful looking beer, but smell and taste are very very muted and light...almost to the point of tasting watered down. I guess if I was being generous, I'd say "delicate". Good carbonation and light mouthfeel. It's decent, but at this price point, I expect a bit more...
