🌍 Germany · Hazy IPA · One of 76 Hazy IPAs in hopIQ

Peacharine is the find in this recipe: a New Zealand variety named for peach and nectarine, and that's what it tastes of. Citra and Nelson Sauvin alongside. At 6.2 percent it's leaner than the DDH range, and only single dry-hopped.

Appearance

Pale golden with a soft haze that catches the light pleasantly. The head is modest but persistent, leaving delicate lacing as it settles. Fine carbonation creates a gentle shimmer throughout the body.

Aroma

Stone fruit leads immediately—ripe peach and nectarine dominate the nose with bright, dimensional clarity. Citra adds a subtle citrus brightness, while Nelson Sauvin contributes gentle tropical notes that deepen the fruit impression without overwhelming it. Clean and inviting, with no rough edges.

Taste

Peach character carries through the palate with natural sweetness that remains refreshing rather than cloying. Mid-palate shows citrus and subtle tropical fruit, while gentle hop bitterness provides structure without aggression. The lean 6.2% ABV keeps the beer crisp and drinkable, allowing the single dry-hop contribution to shine without fatigue.

Finish

Clean and relatively short, fading to a whisper of fruit and a dry, pleasant hop note. No lingering harshness or oxidation—simply a refreshing fadeout.

About Hazy IPA

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives
