What's on the Bottle: "Our latest Hazy rotator is a juice bomb that Johnny Castle would be proud of. Like Johnny, our idea of a Hazy IPA is juicy with a balanced hop bite. Each batch will have huge tropical and citrus aromatics, and this is no exception. So crack this open, lift it high, and prepare to have the time of your life. No juice was harmed in the making of this beer." 

Where distributed: Stormbreaker Brewing distributes in Oregon and could otherwise be found in the Pacific Northwest.

REVIEW:

Appearance (5%): Poured hazy light orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered. White head. 4.5/5

Smell (25%): Soft tropical, detecting passion fruit and pineapple. Also oaty/biscuity malts. 4/5

Taste (40%): Good tropical presence, albeit somewhat muted, with complementing oaty/biscuity malts. Decent tropical aftertaste. 4/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-bodied; good carbonation. Some dryness on the tongue. 4.25/5

Overall (20%): An awesome IPA. This beer unfortunately had to deal with the very high bar Stormbreaker set with the hazy beers I previously had in their lineup. Still, this was an easy-drinking and refreshing beer that went well with my spicy food. 4/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.05/5
