Dust Bunny by Monday Night Brewing is a juicy, hazy hoppy ball of fire and was judged as a Specialty IPA 21B (standard strength, hazy). It surprisingly poured out crystal clear in my glass, while I left a few ounces behind in the can. 

When I finished the can, the hazy goodness swirled out of the bottom and the hoppy haze tasting began in earnest.  Its aroma was a sublime blend of tropical fruits, lemon zest and honey, and it featured a tight, white head, sticking around until the last drops were savored. 

While the flavor offered a top-shelf juicy, tart experience, it was quite restrained in bitterness, however, the bitterness seemed sufficient to avoid the beer from being cloying. The body was very light, which enhanced its refreshing nature. Overall, it was sturdy New England-style IPA, with flavors supporting one another and was quite drinkable.
