Junkyard Hazy Maze NE IPA
8.4 % ABV. Junkyard Brewing, Moorhead, MN.
All hazed-out, bright golden color, beautiful white head, looking lovely.
In the nose: bold, assertive, sunny splash of Citra hops. More loveliness.
In the mouth: Ah! Big hops and juicy juice. Moderate malt. Lemon and orange, briefly bracingly bitter, then a turn to the dry side. Thoroughly enjoyable. I'm often at odds with the hazy NE IPA trend, but this is one of the good ol' good ones. Flat out yum-a-dum-dum.
Our pride and joy, Big Mike, finally got his beer... and just like Mike, this beer is BIG! If you’ve drank a JY can in the last two years, there’s a 99% Big Mike filled, sealed, labeled or boxed that can for you (with tons of love).
He’s one of the friendliest in the industry, constantly visiting other breweries with his girlfriend, Leah, and often bringing gifts along with him. You’ll see him pouring at beer festivals, working our taproom, performing with his band Cascades -nd, attending Vikings games and hanging with his dog, Schmidty.
His beer, HAZY MAZE, is a brand new Hazy Double IPA with Citra, Falconers Flight & Southern Star in the whirlpool, then dry hopped with Mosaic & Southern Star.
