What's on the Can: "Beer Zombies collaboration Vol. 2 Triple dry hopped with Citra and Galaxy. This Hazy DIPA has an indescribable aroma only found from heavy doses of Citra and flavors of dankness and stone fruit.

Keep Cold. Drink Fresh. Unfiltered and super hoppy, sediment is normal so let it settle and leave it behind. Always pour into a glass. Cheers LCB Brewmaster!"

Where distributed: Local Craft Beer can be found in California.

REVIEW:

Appearance (5%): Poured hazy orange into a pint glass. Unfiltered; lots of sediment at the bottom of the can. White head; some lacing. 4.75/5

Smell (25%): Full-on citrus and ripe stone fruit with sweet complementing oaty malts. Slight resin, and it all works harmoniously. 5/5

Taste (40%): Follows the nose; soft tropical citrus and stone fruit to start, then a more intense wave of citrus hits that sticks around through the aftertaste. Extremely refreshing and juicy. Akin to drinking slightly carbonated juice. 5/5

Mouthfeel (10%): Medium-full bodied, some carbonation. Extremely juicy with virtually no dry tongue. 4.75/5

Overall (20%): A world-class Double IPA. To me, a near-perfect Double IPA; no octane, all tropical flavor, and leaves me wanting more. As good as All Haze On Me was, this was even better. Yes, I wish it was slightly cheaper, but damn, just take my money. 4.75/5

Final Weighted Rating: 4.913/5
