Hazy Organic IPA

Tap to rate

The brewery's first certified organic IPA, brewed with organically grown American hops over a wheat-heavy grist that leaves it opaque. The aroma runs tropical and citric with a floral edge and a clear line of pine resin behind it. Mango and grapefruit sit over a soft, rounded body, but this is not a sweet hazy: the bitterness is firm and resinous, closer to a west coast IPA, and the finish dries out with pine and grapefruit pith.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Hazy Organic IPA

◎ Appearance

Pale straw yellow with pronounced haze from suspended yeast and wheat content; the opacity is characteristic and deliberate rather than a sign of youth. A thick, creamy head forms and clings to the glass with good retention. Fine carbonation supports the soft, pillowy presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright tropical stone fruits—mango and papaya—layered over fresh citrus peel and white flowers. A distinct pine resin backbone runs through, grounding the sweeter top notes and lending herbal depth. The organic hop character speaks clearly without harshness.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and rounded, delivering mango and grapefruit across a wheat-forward body. Mid-palate brings a firm, resinous bitterness that leans toward West Coast intensity despite the hazy profile—grapefruit pith and pine needle dominate over sweetness. The 50 IBU sits well integrated, neither buried nor aggressive.

Tulip glass

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