Full Sail Brewing releases Haze of the Gods Double IPA

Hood River, Oregon’s Full Sail Brewing has released Haze of the Gods IIPA, the latest in their Strong Current Double IPA Series in 16oz cans. The beer is named after the landmark Bridge of the Gods that runs from Cascade Locks on the Oregon side of the Columbia River Gorge to Stevenson on the Washington side of the river. As the name suggests, this is a strong hazy IPA that the brewery says is juicy and balanced but not bitter.


More from a press release: 


“Haze of the Gods is dangerously drinkable,” says Full Sail Brewmaster Greg Doss. “Brewed with Strata and Mosaic hops, Haze of the Gods has flavors of sun-ripened peach, passion fruit and mango.”

 

Brewing award-winning beer has always been about persistence and instinct, like salmon swimming upstream in the mighty Columbia River’s current. For more than 30 years, Full Sail brewmasters have embodied that spirit. The new Strong Current Double IPA Series springs from the brewery’s “E.I.G.H.T” principles: commitment to the Environment, natural Ingredients like the pristine water that flows from Mt. Hood, the spectacular Geography of the Columbia River Gorge, the brewery’s original craft Heritage, and of course, the complex, balanced Taste of Full Sail beers. 

 

With striking can design by Pacific Northwest-based Ambient, honoring Full Sail’s sense of place in the Pacific Northwest, Haze of the Gods Double IPA is sure to fly off shelves. Available January - April in 4-packs of 16 oz cans. ABV 8.5%, 35 IBUs.

 

Wondering what’s up next? After a hopefully snow-packed winter, the Strong Current Double IPA Series will continue to deliver with Lazy Summer Haze Double IPA, a hazy, juicy, unfiltered IPA from May to August.
