Quick Facts: ABV: 8%  |  Origin: Chicago, Illinois  |  Style: DDH Double IPA  |  Brewery: Marz Community Brewing

Production & Heritage

Marz Community Brewing operates out of its brewery and taproom at 3630 S Iron St in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood. Attack of the Hazeoids is double dry-hopped with five distinct hop varietals, including Crystal and Comet, selected specifically for their high myrcene oil content. The brewery describes the beer's body as engineered to support what they call "the hop's myrcene mandibles," resulting in what they consider the dankest and most resinous haze in their lineup.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Pungent dank resin hits first, followed by sticky pine and herbal hop oils. The myrcene-heavy hop bill delivers an earthy, almost cannabis-like intensity that signals the beer's intent before the first sip.

Taste: The entry is thick and resinous, coating the palate with concentrated dank hop character. Mid-palate brings layers of piney bitterness and earthy herbal notes, supported by a full, haze-heavy body. Juice character is deliberately minimal — this is a hop-resin showcase, not a tropical fruit smoothie.

Finish: Lingering and sticky with sustained resinous bitterness and herbal dankness. The 8% ABV warmth emerges subtly, adding depth without becoming boozy.

How to Drink Attack of the Hazeoids

Pour cold into a tulip glass or wide-mouthed IPA glass to let the aromatic hop oils fully express themselves; drinking directly from the can mutes much of the resinous complexity. This beer is built for straight drinking rather than cocktail mixing — its aggressive hop character is the main event.

Best For

• Hop-obsessed drinkers who prefer dank over juicy hazy IPAs
• Sharing with friends during a craft beer tasting session

• Gifting to a craft beer enthusiast who thinks they've tried every hazy DIPA

Why Attack of the Hazeoids?

In a hazy IPA landscape saturated with tropical fruit bombs, Attack of the Hazeoids takes a deliberate counterpunch — five myrcene-heavy hops driving dank, resinous intensity rather than juice. The double dry-hopping process using Crystal, Comet, and three additional varietals creates a layered complexity that has earned it a 90 on BeerAdvocate. Marz Community Brewing built this beer as their most resinous haze expression, and it fills a real gap for drinkers who want the soft, full-bodied mouthfeel of a hazy DIPA without sacrificing aggressive hop character to sweetness.
