Overall similarity
hopIQ take
Ectogasm if you want bright citrus snap and immediate drinkability,
Foggy Dog if you want creamy texture and subtle stone fruit depth.
Both hit 6.5% ABV and 45 IBU, so they're technically twins—but Drekker leans juicy-forward while Monkish builds a silkier mouthfeel. Neither will disappoint; it's about whether you're chasing a quick hit of brightness or something that lingers.

Ectogasm
Ectogasm feels like someone concentrated grapefruit juice into a beer. It's snappy—almost electric on the palate—with that classic Drekker house character: clean fermentation, zero yeast funk, just pure hop expression. The finish dries fast, leaving you ready for the next sip. It's the NEIPA that doesn't ask you to work for the flavor.
Foggy Dog
Foggy Dog wraps you in a blanket of oat-forward creaminess that most NEIPAs skip. There's peach and apricot underneath, but they're muted, almost whispered. The bitterness is there at 45 IBU, but it doesn't bite—it integrates. This one sits on your tongue longer, rewarding slow sips over gulps.
