We endowed this straight-up juice bomb with a double dry hop of Mosaic, Citra, El Dorado and Azacca for a blast of mango, stone fruit, lime and pine aromas. It’s not a mirage, but a tasty refreshing oasis in your pursuit of haziness.

Tall can (19.2oz) on 4th January 2023. Only my third beer from the state. Hazy old gold body, decent white crown. Hoppy front with a citrus leaning, yet on the sweet side too. Easy drinking for an 8.5% brew, hides the alcohol well.

19.2 oz. can. Pours a pale, hazy, yellow color, with a big, foamy, white head. The nose is orange juice, milk sugars, butterscotch, and light floral notes. Sweet and sugary, with a hint of bitterness. A bit acidic. Light, crisp, clean, and watery. Mediocre hazy IPA.

Pours hazy gold with a huge, fluffy, white head. Immediate, and intense, aroma of oranges, some mango. Taste has immediate notes of Azteca, some smokey hop oils, citrusy. Palate has lots more of that smokey hop oils, some spice, more citrus, all lingering on the nose. Good.

12oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is nice sweet tropical fruit hops and a citrus kick. Taste is more of the nice sweet tropical notes citrus and mango.

Drunk straight from the can. Aroma and taste: grapefruit, mandarin, honey, tropical fruits. Pine needles. Light to medium sweet, medium bitter. Mouth feel: medium body, appropriate carbonation. Summary: not really a NEIPA. A well brewed classic IPA of Low freshness.

Draught at DTW, 7/26/22. Moderately to heavily hazy, pale honey-maize. White head is small, low to moderately retained. Nose is very yeasty but also showing lightly citrusy hops with a light pine and leafy/spicy mosaic backbone. In the mouth it's bitter, lightly bland, heavily yeasty. Way too much yeast character and blandness from it as well. Citrusy hop is good and the texture is dry and malty.

12 oz. can, 6.2% IPA, Best By Date:08/18/2022

AROMA: Moderately sweet with strong scents of orange and mango followed by subtle hints of pine and lime.

APPEARANCE: Pours a cloudy orangish-yellow with a medium high, off-white head that has gentle lacing.

TASTE: On the front-end I get a slight sweetness with lime being the predominant flavors, which is quickly followed by pine and a bit of mango. The back-end is where the bitterness and mango really come out, as the lime and pine flavors fade away.

MOUTHFEEL: Medium-bodied with a smooth texture and above average carbonation.

OVERALL: Not bad, but not great, either. My personal preference would be to lose a little of the lime flavor, and bump up the mango a tad. Otherwise, I found it to be a solid Hazy IPA. It's got a nice body and aroma, is not too bitter or sweet, and goes down easy.
