The 20 Best Hazy / New England-Style IPAs of 2022

Responsive image

Honestly, we're not sure this blog needs any introduction. Quite simply, American and global craft drinkers love hazy IPAs. And for good reason. Their turbid, juicy depths transport our tastebuds to galaxies far, far away. 

First popularized by New England breweries (hence the name)such as Tree House and The Alchemisthazy IPAs are now in pretty much every brewery's portfolio across the country. There are even some versions from big breweries such as Sierra Nevada, Rogue, Lagunitas, and Bell's that you can find in pretty much any store across the country. And they're pretty good. Actually, our friends at Hop Culture ranked them

Unsurprisingly, the New England-style IPA ranked second on Untappd's Top 10 Styles of 2021 with a whopping 6.1 million check-ins last year. 

With no end to the haze craze in sight, the only question now is what hazy IPAs will reign supreme in 2022?

Editor's note: These are only single hazy / New England-style IPAs. We have not counted double hazy / New England-style IPAs in this list. Additionally, this is a ranking of the highest-rated hazy / New England in 2022 (Jan. 1st, 2022, to date).
