    Chicago has gotten so bad (good) about new hazies that I'm starting to consider doing mixed 6-packs, something I almost never do. It's impossible to keep up now.

    mission haze is decent, it’s just hot and needs a few days to settle.

    Juice Pants is legit guys. Beautiful hop usage.
    Citra and mosaic. Both pellets and cryo of each.

    Not a thick beer, but that’s not why I drink IPAs. I’m here for the hop experience.

    This is a 4 pack you could put down in a night.

    In terms of comparisons, I’d put it somewhere between how Brickstone and Pipeworks make their beers.

    It looks like they are going make a few batches of this recipe and see how it’s received. They didn’t rule out new chapters in the future though.

    File under: worst "New England" IPA I've ever tasted: Hailstorm's Keyboard Necktie.

    Have you ever wished that you could mix peanut butter & baking soda together with the water collected at the bottom of a trash can?

    Have I got a beer for you...

    To call this a New England IPA...a style that emphasizes citrus notes (none here), a pillow-y mouthfeel (this was thick & sticky) and an effervescent feeling (this was heavy & unpleasant), is either a complete failure on the part of the brewer or a cynical attempt to market a beer you never intended to fit the style.

    Or maybe they're just bad at making beer?

    Noon on Marz is both really good and really unique.
