Porty Haze
A session-strength IPA at 3.4 %, new in 2026 and named after Portobello's local nickname. The brewery describes it as highly flavoursome and aromatic, hopped with Citra for a lush, fruity character of citrus and tropical fruit, with an assertive bitterness. Honey and bready malt undertones sit beneath the hops, and the finish is refreshing. Its account lists it as a hazy IPA, and a drinker who had it on cask calls it a fruity hazy pale.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Porty Haze
Serve well-chilled. Session IPAs are at their best cold — the lower ABV means less warmth to balance the hops.
The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
Drink fresh. Session IPAs are brewed to be consumed young — the hops are at their best now.
