Oliphant Zozo GunGun Hazy Double IPA

Oliphant Zozo GunGun Hazy Double IPA.
10 % ABV.
Oliphant Brewing, Somerset, WI.

All clouded up, bright golden hue, slim white head on top.

In the nose: Bold and beautiful hop expression. Big citrus, touch of floral, spice, little bit of tropical fruit, as well. Nice.

In the mouth: Blast of bitterness blazes the palate. And the hazy and the yeast swallows it up. Just a little bit juicy. Medium malt, high hops. Resulting in fairly balanced and smooth, until the booze builds. Orange and grapefruit, building bitterness, ending dry.

I keep drinking the Hazy Double IPAs because they are there and I have to drink something,  even though I don't prefer them over a regular, non-hazy DIPA. Make more of those, please. Pretty please? Pretty pretty please please?

By the way, it does not seem that ZoZo GunGun is directly related to an earlier beer from Oliphant called Zozo Gun. Also, it might not repel poltergeists.
