Hawkers Hazy IPA

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-yellow hue with a distinctly hazy, opaque body courtesy of wheat and oat additions. The beer throws a soft, pillowy head with modest retention and fine lacing. Gentle carbonation visible as fine bubbles rising through the cloudy matrix.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright passionfruit and ripe mango, supported by tangerine zest and lime. A subtle blueberry note emerges in the background, underpinned by a faint dank, earthy quality from the hop bill. Grain sweetness from the wheat and oats provides ballast without dominating.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and rounded, with tropical fruit character immediately present—mango and passionfruit lead, followed by citrus notes of tangerine and lime. Mid-palate remains smooth and full-bodied, with a subtle berry complexity and whisper of herbal dankness. Bitterness is deliberately restrained, allowing hop aromatics to shine without harsh edges.

◑ Finish

Closes with light, clean dryness rather than a bitter bite. The finish is relatively short to medium, fading gracefully with lingering fruit notes.

Serve at 8–11°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
