Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Hazy golden, mid sized head. Generous aroma of tangerine, mango and passionfruit. Mid sweet with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Fruity and peppery with nectarine and mango. Peppery mid bitter finish.

Can (from Alko web). Hazy yellow colour with a minor head. Aroma is grapefruits, pineapple and some mild grainy and sweetness to it. Flavour is floral, nectary, some grapefruits, and some slight sweet malty tones too.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 15/06/24. Does 'Hazi' mean clear in Finnish ... fuck me ... do some brewers just describe their beers as hazy because they think it's on trend and will sell better? Clear golden with a good sized white cap. Nose is orange zest, grass, grapefruit, pine needle. Taste comprises grass, pine needle, melon, grapefruit, light stoned fruits, mandarin, papaya. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with light juicy come grassy hop bitterness. Okay DIPA ... Hazi !?!??!?!?!??!

Can. Initially pours clear but with plenty of floaters, then pours hazy - weird! Small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, a very mild dryness, decent fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a nice level of creamy sweetness. Hops bring mild hop spice into soft citrus underpinned by a decent savoury skunk. Light smooth pine. Traces of tangerine and mango and a whisper of something tropical. More hop spice on the semi dry finish. Decent, don't think it gets enough from the Galaxy hoppage and lacks the hop brightness of a top notch dipa but still a satisfying and quaffable brew.

Sweetish, stingy hoppy and piney with some citrus and herbal notes, hints of grapefruit and oaty fluffy sweetness in the finish. A bit heavy

440ml can. Murky golden yellow, big white head, lots of sediment. Aroma of tropical fruits, guava, mango, passionfruit, grapefruit. Taste is sweet and fruity, tropical, guava, mango, grapefruit, some dank herb, bitter hop finish. Full bodied. Great DIPA just a shame about the snowglobe appearance... so many floaters. Seems most CoolHead IPAs are like this :/
