Thanks.  Contrary to what it seems many thing I find it harder to brew a beer that hazy than a clear one.  None of those beers have any flaked oats or wheat yet still have the haze.  I believe the haze is much more a product of the dry hop, type of hops used and most important the temperature of the dry hop and when it is done.

 

my recent examples of very hoppy beers are not crystal clear but are also not super cloudy.  for example the bitter galaxy has some appreciable haze to it.  I should take a pic tonight.

Contrary to common wisdom, I have found that using up to a pound of wheat malt in a in a gold beer seams to increase the clarity under cold conditioning better than without.
