hopIQ found 10 beers with the same sweet and hazy character as Taranaki. An 8.4% double IPA built on newer New Zealand hop varieties and named after the region on the North Island; first sold in autumn 2024 and since brewed again. Vocation describes an intense, aromatic hazy beer: Superdelic brings sweet berry and candy flavours, Motueka adds lime and tropical notes, and ESH-1 rounds things out with citrus. Tasters confirm the sweetness, calling it candy-like with a smooth, thick body. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
Closest match: Retreat — 93%. Same sweetness and haziness, with a crisp edge Vocation Brewery keeps quiet.
