Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Magic Haze

◎ Appearance

A luminous golden-amber hue, clouded throughout by the soft suspension characteristic of dry-hopped pale ales. The head forms generously and clings to the glass with fine lacing; carbonation lifts steadily, creating a gentle, persistent fizz that sustains the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright tropical stone fruit—mango and peach—layered beneath herbaceous and floral notes from the Edelhopfen blend. Subtle citrus zest and a whisper of candied maltiness provide a soft, rounded foundation without any harsh phenolic or vegetal character.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and approachable, with juicy stone fruit leading into a well-integrated mid-palate that balances mild sweetness against the moderate bitterness of the 40 IBU charge. The finish is dry and clean, with lingering tropical notes fading gracefully without astringency or harshness.

◑ Finish

A short, crisp finish that clears the palate with ease, leaving a gentle fruity echo and a suggestion of citrus pith. The low alcohol and restrained IBU create an inviting aftertaste that encourages another sip.
