Well... the name pretty much says it all. Boulder Beer Company's Hazed & Infused is an APA that is loaded with hops, hops and more hops. Oh, and it's also dry hopped... So if you like hops, this is the beer beer for you. If you prefer the flavor of malts or yeast, well you might want to pass this one up. Caveats aside, this beer isn't all bad. For a strongly hopped beer there is a fair bit of complexity. Underneath all the hops you can taste toasted malt, a little citrus and just a hint of caramel. Even though the hops are pretty overbearing the beer isn't too bitter. I wouldn't call this beer balanced, but the hidden malt component does take a bit of edge off of the hops. In the end, this beer is really just a one trick pony. If you are easily entertained by beers full of hops, hops and more hops then this beer is for you. I can think of about 100 other beers I'd rather drink.
