Introducing Mysterious Haze, a new year-round offering from deep within the hop labs here at Smuttynose Brewing Co. This medium-bodied, double dry-hopped New England IPA is a master class in showcasing the tropical characteristics of Citra hops, featuring initial notes of grapefruit, guava and mango that melt beautifully into a complex after taste of citrus and delicate herbs.
Just how much will you love it? That’s a mystery only your first sip can unravel.

Lillies, orange, apricot nose. Slightly hazy amber, medium head, good lace. Apricot and lemongrass. Medium body, soft carbonation. Great IPA but not meeting many of the characteristics of the New England subset. Maybe a little artificial too.

Can from the bodega down the street with the cheap gas. Canned 10/23/18 The real mystery is where is the haze? Almost brilliantly clear deep golden color with a small slowly receding bubbly white head. Earthy citrus and pine on the nose with a touch of perfume and alcohol. Flavor is earthy citrus pine and fruity with a hint of bready malt. Tasty IPA, I enjoyed it but not really a hazy NE IPA.

Bottle Bar East, Philadelphia can: pours light orange haze with a white head. Aroma is juicy citrus. Taste is on the more bitter end of NEIPA. Pretty unimpressive but fine.

16 oz. can. A near clear appearance! Ha ha ha ha! Flavor has light citrus, mild juice notes. Slight pine finish. Moderate bitterness. Not the best NEIPA out there but if you are introducing someone to bolder IPA’s... this might work.
