It's Saturday again and time to put another beer through its paces. Brewdog isn't exactly your traditional craft brewer anymore, as they're massive now, however just like I won't stop liking a good band just because they've become popular, I won't stop enjoying an IPA because they are from a major brewery. Introducing...
Brewdog Hazy Jane New England IPA
What they say
New England detuned. This full-tilt fruit machine of an IPA packs all the flavour but less of the alcohol. Notes of pineapple,mango, stone-fruit, and a hint of tangerine to mix it up. Brewed with oats and wheat and left unfiltered for a smooth juicy hit.
Hazy Jane - Now in session.
Beer Art
This one is another where the other beers from the stable are very similar. They all look like this, but the colours are different. This one is my favourite of the lot though.

Thoughts
It's hoppy, it's hazy and it's damn tasty. It poured a hazy blonde straw yellow colour into my usual tasting glass. Speaking of that glass actually, Martin's Off Licence should be paying me for all of this advertising by now! 🤷♂️🍻😁
Ok, back to the beer now. Fruit dominates the aroma here with grapefruit, mango, and apricot all coming through when the can is opened and again even more so on tasting it. This one is very sessionable and you easily drink a few at just 5% ABV.
The Grade
3.5/5
