One of my favorite breweries of all time, Elysian Brewing, is celebrating it’s 25th anniversary this year! And since we are only a few days away from the official start of summer, it’s time to forget the cocktail and try a beertail!

Elysian’s latest beertail is the perfect complement to a warm summer day. The Hazy Daze as they like to call it, features Elysian Brewing’s popular Contact Haze, a 6% ABV Hazy IPA that offers citrus notes alongside flavors and aromas of raspberry, currant, guava, and passion fruit. The recipe calls for additional juices and a splash of rum to round things out, creating the perfect fruity concoction to help you beat the heat.
