Overall similarity
hopIQ take
Easy Eddy Hazy IPA if you want a lighter, more delicate touch,
Foggy Dog if you want slightly more presence and grip.
Both sit at the same IBU count and play in the same hazy wheelhouse, so this is really about body and mouthfeel. Easy Eddy edges lower in ABV too, which matters if you're planning a session. Neither beer is trying to dominate—they're both restraint-forward New England IPAs.

Easy Eddy Hazy IPA
Easy Eddy drinks like someone turned down all the volume knobs just right. You get the hazy citrus and soft stone fruit thing, but it's whisper-quiet—almost delicate on the palate. The finish is clean and quick, no lingering bitterness or heavy grain backbone. At 6.2%, it feels genuinely easy, which is exactly what the name promises.
Foggy Dog
Foggy Dog has a slightly more substantial feel, even at just 0.3% more ABV. There's a rounder mouthfeel here, more juice to it. The haze is thicker, the fruit expression a touch richer—still soft, but with a little more weight behind it. It doesn't linger aggressively, but it definitely makes itself known longer than Easy Eddy.
