This Hazy DIPA hits you in the nose with huge tropical pineapple & mango aromas. Built on a bare bones Pilsner malt bill, the hazy trifecta of Strata, Mosaic, & Citra hops layer in strawberry, blueberry, & grapefruit flavors with an underlying green onion funk that balances those big, tropical notes pint after pint.

Can, from Beermiscuous, Chicago IL (Oct 2025). Pours extremely hazy lemon yellow with a large foamy whitish head, faint citrus aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter unripe mango-citrus peel taste, smooth thin body, long finish. A good NE DIPA.

Pours a big foamy head, over an opaque yellow beer. Strong nose of American Pale Hops. Some lemon, bong water, and pine resin. First taste is slightly sticky and sharply hoppy. Despite its strong hop punch, it's kind of easy drinking. But then the sharpness keeps hitting with each sip.One of those movie slaps where the slapee says "Thanks, I needed that."

Aromas are a strange yet somehow pleasant mix of, citrus rind, dry grain, resin and urine. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose though more tame and traditional. Loses the urine and citrus comes out a bit more. Slightly more sweet than bitter with decent body and carbonation. Juicy.

Pours a hazy, golden pineapple, with smallish head. Aroma is citrus and tropical fruit, some hop resin and grass. Flavor is juicy citrus and tropical fruit. Soft mouthfeel. Moderate to above average level of hop bitterness in the finish. Very nice.

Pint can - turbid gold - one of a few hazy ipas I’ve had recently that have the dankness and bitterness of a west coast ipa - citric, dank, but also moderately juicy - finish is dry and fairly bitter, with light mineral and dankness.

Can. Pours a cloudy golf with an orange hue and a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has dank citrus and mango with sweet grains and a bit of grass supporting. Flavor has grass and rind with a bit of mango and citrus backing.
