O'Hara's Hazy IPA

◎ Appearance

Golden and hazy beneath a white, persistent head that clings to the glass with fine lacing. The suspension of yeast and hop material creates a cloudy visual character typical of the style. Moderate carbonation is visible as fine bubbles rising through the opaque body.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vivid tropical fruit notes—mango and passion fruit—layered with subtle citrus undertones. Strata and Azacca work in tandem to build a complex, fruit-forward bouquet that avoids sharp resinousness. A gentle sweetness rounds the aromatic profile without veering into candy or cloying territory.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and sweet-leaning, with peachy stone fruit character dominating the mid-palate. The bitterness remains restrained at 40 IBU, allowing the soft tropical base to persist without competition. Finish moves toward dried peach and a gentle hop dryness that doesn't overwhelm the rounded, full-bodied sensation.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, with peachy notes lingering alongside a subtle herbal dryness. Aftertaste remains fruit-forward rather than bitter, maintaining balance throughout.
