During a draught–– my outside garage fridge empty of craft beers––  I hopped into my TACO and drove down to Publix and made a bee-line to craft beer section and saw this Sweetwater H.A.Z.Y.  I.P.A. on BOGO.  I recalled having a Sweetwater in the past but not this one.   At the register where and older cashier with a pleasant smile, attractive, asked if I ever had this one?  I answered no, but mentioned I loved IPA’s.  I then asked her if she ever had this and what she thought of it?  The answer I received took me out there and back: 

“Not someone’s name. Not an album cover nor game of the future involving four or more players dressed in combat complete uniforms carrying magnifying paper cups constructed of glass and more paper then was originally thought necessary. Not all the titles of the beers along the shelves,  aggregated into one big ball made from smaller balls held together by the pain taking care of a fast moving chicken that may have seen, but not contemplated, what the mass of balls was doing in its domain to begin with.  It then made a few chicken noises which culminated into one big gizzard wrenching scream then cautiously crossed its legs and fell over, puffing clouds of dirt through its nostrils and settling into a puddle, to die, in the rain, alone.”

“That works for me,” I said.  “And save the plastic, I can carry these.”

THEIR STORY:  We endowed this straight-up juice-bomb with a double dry hop of mosaic, citra el dorado and azacca fora blast of mango, stone fruit, lime and pine aromas.It’s not a mirage but a tasty refreshing oasis in your pursuit of haziness.
