Eazy Hazy

Tap to rate

A hazy pale ale at 4.0 percent built on a rolled-wheat base that lends it a creamy body. American hops bring lime, passionfruit and a hint of coconut, and a zesty bitterness closes things off without letting the fruit turn sweet. Softer and lighter than the full-strength hazy from the same brewhouse, it reads as a session beer wearing the nose of a considerably bigger one.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Eazy Hazy

◎ Appearance

A pale golden haze defines this beer's visual identity, with a soft turbidity from suspended yeast that catches light warmly. The head forms quickly and clings with moderate persistence, leaving fine Schaumkleiden down the glass. Carbonation appears gentle and well-integrated, lending a creamy aspect to the pour.

◌ Aroma

American Edelhopfen lead the charge, releasing bright lime zest and juicy passionfruit notes that dominate the nose. A subtle coconut whisper emerges underneath, supported by the soft, wheaten backbone that adds a faintly creamy grain character. The overall impression is lifted and inviting—fruit-forward without any harsh resin.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and pillowy, the rolled wheat delivering a full, creamy mouthfeel that belies the beer's modest 4% ABV. Mid-palate unfolds with tropical fruit clarity and a restrained citrus bite; the 25 IBU bitterness arrives as a clean zest rather than aggressive bite, cutting through any sweetness before it can linger. The finish remains dry and refreshing, never cloying.

◑ Finish

A short to medium fade leaves the palate crisp and dry, with lingering lime and a faint herbal recall. The aftertaste is soft and thirst-inducing, making this a natural reach for another pour.
