Hey man, don't shoot the messenger!
I wholeheartedly agree with you, btw.
Regardless of its opacity, it was damn tasty.
Reminds me of Gilman Street Brewing who made a NE haze that was clear. When I asked them about it, they said it was their West-meets-East interpretation. It, too, was hella tasty despite what I consider to be mislabeling.
(FWIW, check out the GSB website and look at the pix of their hazes:

Kabru West Coast IPA
Solid Ground Brewing, Diamond Springs, CA
ABV: 7.5%
Hops: Simcoe, Amarillo, El Dorado
Yes, another murky "west coast" IPA. I concur that it's cloudiness excludes it from being a true WC IPA, but unlike the majority of hazes, it's not terribly fruity or yeasty. It has a kind of dried apricot aroma and initial palate hit, but then bleeds into more traditional WC IPA bitterness at the finish.
I would call this a hybrid and the brewery should, too. Or, at the very least, call is an "unfiltered" IPA...
Regardless, it's tasty.

Hazy Leafy Greens
Revision Brewing CO., Sparks, NV
ABV: 7.25%
Hops:
IBU: 55
Apparently Revision releases it's "Leafy Greens" IPA every 4/20. How I have missed this all these years is not only strange, but a travesty (Revision was founded in 2015 and this is the first time I am enjoying "Leafy Greens").
At any rate, this year they decided to skip making their more traditional "clear" West Coast-styled version and went with a hazy, in honor of how f$%ke-up 2020 was due to COVID.
Revision has built its rep on their hazes and I have to be honest quite a lot of them taste pretty similar, to me at least. But this jammy is nice and crisp with that fruity hazy quality and a decent slam of hoppy bitterness, raising it above the standard hazy. Highly recommended.
If you find yourself in Reno, also check their "Disco Ninja", "Moon Wolf", and "Citra Slam" IPAs.

I have only had 3 on the list (Pliny and both the SN entries) and quite honestly, I wouldn't recommend them to somebody just getting into IPAs...

^Kern River is solid.
The three IPAs I have had from them have been legit.
