They brew a steady stream of IPAs at Moon Dog but there’s something a little different about Hazy IPA. As the lack of pop culture references or puns might make clear (although that’s not necessarily a guarantee when it comes to Moon Dog), this beer is a new core range member, joining the pack in 2022.
The label design brings to mind the brewery’s earlier Groundhog Haze, as too does its ABV, but sadly, this beer features fewer chances to make Bill Murray references. It uses different hops and is dry hopped with Mosaic, Amarillo and Simcoe to provide a juicy mix of nectarine, orange and pineapple, later joined by a more floral and piney finish.
Just as the greatest comedy actor of all time (IMO), you won’t find any bitterness here, with Hazy IPA instead a soft, luscious and smooth addition to the brewery’s lineup.
