Hazy Big Ballard is bold and juicy, with notes of tropical flavors, a soft body and lingering hops on the finish. Whatever you're building, Hazy Big Ballard is the perfect way to cap off a long day and give you the reward you have earned. Cheers from the founder and from The Captain.

Pounder can from the local Raley's grocery. Pours very hazy gold with a decent white head. Juicy aroma of mixed tropicals. Med body or so. Juicy but not really sugary. Moderately bitter. Flavor of citrus, green melon and guava. Nice flavor.

Stovepipe can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is nice juice hops some melons citrus combo. Taste is more of the nice citrus melons combo and a light sweet malt.

Can from Point Fuel & Pantry, Point Roberts, WA
Dark blond colour, just slightly hazy, like god intended, with medium sized compact head. There is some gentle fruit in the aroma, maybe more in the flavour, but let's be real, this one is more piney than fruity, it's moderately sweet but not cloying, it has a good body, and respectable bitterness.
In my book this is a very pleasant, modern, West Coast IPA, could be drier, could be brighter, but in the end it beats the chalky nonsense too often on the market.

Stovepipe can from gas station in Burns, OR. Hazy golden pour, small soapy head, lacing. Aroma is overripe fruit, melon, peach. Taste is a combo of tropical and stone fruit, sweet, mildly dry. Interesting tastes.

Pours a hazy amber with a fluffy white head. Aroma of orange, citrus oils, hops. Taste has some boozy notes, resinous citrus. Palate has much of the same resin, hop oils. Good.
