Bingo! This is what im looking for.


Then I would go with Holy Roler, Salad Days, and there’s a hazy low ABV IPA that Natchez Brewing has out.

Ghost in the Machine if looking for a tad higher ABV and little more hop bite, and if Bayou Teche can fix whatever issues they had with the latest distribution of over-carbonated Cocodrie, that’s one to try out as well.

Speak for yourself.

I’ll take Jennifer Anniston (Tropicalia) over Taylor Swift (Juicifer) any day of the week.


This makes my head hurt. I don't know how you got that from what I said. I would never insinuate Taylor Swift is hotter than anyone.

As a lurker FBD fan, I tried Ghost in the Machine, and it tasted mostly like grapefruit. While it tasted fine, I didn't think it was quite worthy of the hype. Jucifer was better IMO. I also liked Nola's Lemon Basil (from a can).

BTW, any recommendations for any Pecan beers?

When I mix Envie (Denise Richards) and MechaHopZilla (Neve Campbell), Wild Things happen.

I thought that I hated IPAs for years because of Jockamo IPA. Tasted like soap.

You can't swing a dead cat without hitting a hazy IPA these days.

And most of them are shite. Most of them lack any sort of hop nuance. It's just muddled hops, overly malty, high ABV, overly chewy, highly mineral crap.

I was an early proponent of the first juicy/hazy IPA's after my first experience with heady topper and early ghost. But now, it's so oversaturated, and so many of them are just not good. Yes, the masses buy them. That doesn't = good.

Now i will say, Jucifer is nice. It's not overly chewy, you can actually discern some flavors from the hops, and it's carbonated correctly. I would suggest Tin Roof Voodoo if you want something similar. It's not as "hoppy", it's a pale ale, but it's very good. Urban South Holy Roller isn't bad either. Not overly "juiced". Ghost is also good. Of all of Parish's hoppy beers, this has been a consistently well made beer (once production started becoming year round). Everything else is a crapshoot. I think NOLA hasn't made a good NEIPA yet. Haven't had Flying Tiger's NEIPA. Parish's multiple IPA's don't really stand out from each other. At least from the last time i tried them. Last year bloom, Nova, etc... neither had any differentiating hop flavors. The beers tasted the same.

However, these are my opinions on the haze trend. Your mileage may vary. Begin the downvoting.

Tasman and No Strings Attached from their lagniappe series were both excellent NEIPA’s. (I’m not sure how Forklift Joyride would be classified)

These aren’t in NOLA’s regular rotation but they have been made and were very good. It shows what NOLA is capable of .

My mistake. I did enjoy this one. Had loads of tropical fruit flavor.

Didn't care for No strings. Hops were muddled.

I agree completely. I find this on most of the lagniappe series....

I found Moon Shoes to be a big disappointment this latest batch.
