Double Hazy IPA: Named after the seasonal tall ship that graces the harbor every summer. Pungent tropical fruits burst out of the glass with a touch of fresh herbs. Hops are Mosaic, Citra, Azacca, and Strata.

Poured from 16oz can into my 8th Wonder chalice. Canned 6/12/25. This batch is 8.2% ABV.

Appearance: medium golden hue with a moderate haze and a thick cap of ivory foam atop.

Smell: kind of an earthily tropical, guava and passionfruit thing going on. It’s kinda flat though, without a lot of juicy zing to it.

Taste: some of that tropicality from the aroma, but also I think this can is maybe past its prime. It’s not terrible but … yeah, not the best out there.

Mouthfeel: medium-rich body with a good carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: usually I’d think twice about reviewing a 9-month-old hazy. But I bought this can *at the brewery* just a week ago, so if they are going to sell past-its-prime IPA, and there’s no distributor or retail outlet to blame, then I’m gonna review it as it is.

Solid IPA! Very citrus forward and juicy on the palate. Kinda like a west coast/east coast hybrid. Hops in this were: warrior, azacca, mosaic, and pekoe.
