The newest packaged beer to join the year-round lineup from GoodLife Brewing is Wave Park Hazy IPA, named for the wave channel of the nearby Bend Whitewater Park. The beer is 6.7% ABV with 65 IBUs, available on draft and in 12-ounce cans; the brewery recently provided me with a six-pack to review.

Wave Park’s description is:

Living nestled among the mountains, all intrepid surfers always yearn for the rhythmic embrace of the sea’s waves. With unwavering determination, you search to discover an untouched marvel: a surging river, its crystalline waters mimicking the ocean’s heartbeat. As the sun painted the sky in hues of gold, gliding along the river’s course.

The world around blurs as board carves through water, a lone figure chasing the echoes of the dream. In that fleeting moment, the river cradles you, and the thrill of an untouched current becomes your symphony of bliss—a surfer in the heart of the mountains, riding a perfect wave carved in your own wave park.

Wave Park Hazy IPA: Tasting Notes -Fruity aromatic nose with qualities of peach, apricot, and pineapple. Flavors of Ripe Pineapple, Meyer Lemon, Stonefruit, Gooseberry, Wet-Stone, and a Grapefruit Zest with Juniper/Piney bite.

No mention of the ingredients used, but the descriptors sound like newer hop varieties.
