Powell Brewery Lazy D'Haze East Coast IPA Review Powell Brewery – Lazy D’Haze East Coast IPA Review

Powell Brewery has brewed a North East style IPA using Amarillo and Equinox hops. This beer is 7.0% alcohol and a modest 58 IBUs. Pouring the beer it is light amber in colour, very clear and has two fingers of lacing head. The aroma is of apricot, mango and melon in a fruity and tropical manner. Tasting the beer it is a fruit basket of flavour. A light creaminess and boozy character joins notes of pineapple, melon and apricot in a lightly sweet and bitter hop flavour. This beer is on track with the style of new-age IPAs but the use of Amarillo and Equinox hops offers something unique at the same time. While a slight booziness reduces the drink-ability slightly it is flavourful, fruity and definitely worth giving a try!

Alcohol – 7.0%
IBU – 15
Size – 650ml

    Odd. That looks absolutely nothing like the pint of it I had on tap at the brewery. That one does have a touch of have although still not to style. The one I had was crystal clear and quite West Coast IPA like. I did get the correct pour though as I knew the other beers on tap at the brewery. Odd.
