If a weather app forecast the outlook on this beer it would say slightly cloudy with a downpour of juicy hops. Its luscious nectar showers your lips with a combination of candied orange, mango and passionfruit, followed with a refreshing breeze of bitterness beneath. Chill out, sip back and relax with a lazy Hazy.

Si cette Hazy IPA jouit d'un cocktail aromatique agréable, bien que classique, c'est un manque de vivacité que j'ai à regretter. Pour ne pas trop tomber dans le jus de fruit ces bières ont tout de même besoin d'une amertume relevée. Sur le visuel, nous sommes sur un blond voilé avec une très fine effervescence soutenue et une mousse blanche nappant à peine la surface. Le nez est très classique mais bien équilibré sur la pêche, mangue, orange, pamplemousse et des herbes. En bouche, c'est globalement rond avec une amertume qui manque quelque peu de tranchant et un alcool, à 6% limite. Heureusement tout de même, sur l'arrière bouche, l'amertume est plus saillante, évitant un ensemble trop molasson. La corpulence et la longueur sont honnêtes pour leurs parts. Pas mal mais sans plus.

18/10/2022. Draught at The General Assembly, Melbourne Southbank. Pours hazy/cloudy pale orange gold with a small frothy white head. Aroma of pithy orange, mango, passion fruit, grapefruit, citrus, husky notes and a slightly spicy edge. Medium sweetness and moderate bitterness with a slight tart edge. Moderate body, soft carbonation. Good.

(Can) Pours cloudy golden with small white head. Great aroma of mango and passion fruit. Great mouthfeel with smooth medium body and plenty of fine, soft, bright carbonation. Great taste too. Plenty of fresh fruit up front - mango and passion fruit. This follows through into to the mid palate where some subtle sweetness appears, only to be followed by a growing hoppy bitterness giving an excellent bitter finish. Very enjoyable.

An excellent hazy - aromas of passionfruit, pineapple, orange peel and pine. Drinks well, goes down very smoothly for a six percenter.

Tap at the Great Northern Hotel, Melbourne. Poured a hazy golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, tropical citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a crisp, fresh, earthy, mineral, fruity, light dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

From a 500ml can on 1/7/2019. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a medium foamy head. Has a light spicy, juicy nose. Flavour wise, you get a good dash of orange, mango and pineapple, with a relatively sharp, citrussy, spicy bitterness. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not remarkable or special, but quite pleasant drinking.

Pint on tap at Club Rivers, Riverwood. Hazy amber beer with a foamy white head. Nose of grass, malt, fruit. Full-bodied, good lacing. Peppery hops lead to a herbal finish. Nice, with late touches of liquorice and band-aid. Complex but drinkable.

Can. Yellow/orange, and guess what? Hazy. Big citrus nose with passionfruit. Appropriate chewiness. Reasonably balanced with enough hoppiness to not be a complete juice boom. Hoped for something more standout however.

Canned 4 Feb - good logistics to travel ~1700km and spend a couple of days in my fridge. Hazy dull orange with a white head that fades but never disappears. Fruity aroma of pineapple, mango, orange, tinned passionfruit. Hints of pine stop it from smelling like tropical fruit cup. Has a soft juicy texture to it with modest carbonation. Pretty much all fruit really with a moderate to low bitterness and a little astringency that work well to close things off rather than feature as a finish. Good.
