This juicy, hazy ale is brimming with Citra and Simcoe hops for a fruit-forward blast of hop flavor. Drink it. You’ll like it. It’s not rocket surgery, it's Rocket Surgery.

Hazy pale golden color with a medium thin white head that burns away steadily to a film. Sticky strings of lace. Aroma of grassy hop, citrus and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of resiny hops, grapefruit and biscuit malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can thanks to Drake! Gold, very light haze, white head. Lemon zest, perfumey floral hops, light pine nose. Lemon zest, orange peel, light tropical notes. Light on flavor, almost feels like a session except it's lacking the session cardboard flavor.

Can. Hazy light gold. Fizzy white head, rapidly diminishing. Light aroma of toasted grain, lemon, citrus, onion. Lightly sweet start, light to moderately bitter finish. Anemic flavor, light body. Sourish. Disappointing.

$2 can from chalet, not expecting much for this tick. Pours clear pale yellow with a big white foaming head, how dare they call this hazy. All the haze must be laying on the bottom of the can like hefe er sumthin. A little can swirl does produce some haze but its still not a hazy NEIPA. Good sharp co2 on the uptake, I can appreciate that in an IPA. Taste is medium bitter with some hints of orange citrus hiding in the background. Less bitter than expected but hey, I had double imperial thick palate blasting IPA yesterday, anything would seem light when compared to that bastard. Does have a heavy IPA nose but the bitterness really doesn't seem to settle in till the middle of the session. Zonkers, its getting even more bitter building towards the finish. Ends like a typical IPA, one in a million, no big deal, they all practically taste the same.

Pour is more of a cloudy yellow than hazy. Aroma is orange peel with a little pineapple. Flavor is kind of disappointing very thin and almost watery with some minor pineapple showing up after the swallow. NIce try at a hazy pale ale but it did not work.

Can. Hazy light gold pour with a fizzy head. Aromas of lemon, pear, white grape, grass. Flavor is like a pleasant lemon drop. Refreshing after a hot walk in the MO summer.
