HOPIQ TAKE

Bow & Arrow Scenic West if you want a hazy that feels lighter and more crushable, BRLO Blurry Vision if you want something with a bit more texture and grip. Both sit at basically identical specs—6.4% vs 6.5%, same 50 IBUs—so this is really about the house style. Bow & Arrow leans into that West Coast restraint even within the hazy format, while BRLO has this Berlin brewing DNA that adds weight. You're splitting hairs between two well-made beers, honestly.

TASTING NOTES

Bow & Arrow Scenic West Hazy IPA

TropicalHoppyHazy

Bow & Arrow's entry plays it smart—it's hazy but doesn't feel bloated. There's a clean citrus line running through it, almost grapefruit-forward, with the kind of dry finish that makes you reach for the next sip instead of sitting heavy. The cloudiness is there, but it doesn't mask anything; you get clarity in the flavor even with the opaque pour. It's a hazy that doesn't demand your full attention, which sometimes is exactly what you need.

BRLO Blurry Vision

TropicalHoppyHazy

BRLO's Blurry Vision has more body wrapped around that same citrus-forward DNA. There's a creamier mouthfeel—almost oat-like texture—that gives it presence without being thick. The bitterness is integrated rather than hidden, so it doesn't feel like a soft drink in a hazy disguise. It's the kind of beer that tastes intentional in every sip, slightly more assertive even at the same ABV.
