Nor'Hop

Tap to rate

Nor'Hop is a very pale ale that puts its hops first; Moor sells it as an ultra pale ale. The aroma is bold: freshly cut citrus fruit, stone fruit and a grassy edge. Grapefruit and peach follow on a light to medium body with lively carbonation, and a firm bitterness stays in balance through to a clean, dry finish. So'Hop is its sister beer with southern-hemisphere hops. Nor'Hop comes in 440 ml cans and on cask and is left unfiltered, so a little sediment remains.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Nor'Hop

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with pronounced cloudiness from natural conditioning and suspended yeast particles. The haze softens the light transmission without obscuring detail. A generous, creamy head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing.

◌ Aroma

Bright citrus aromatics dominate—grapefruit zest and lemon pith rise above the pour. Floral notes of chamomile and meadowsweet add subtle texture to the nose. A restrained, clean malt foundation provides gentle sweetness without competing with the hop character.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and effervescent, with immediate citrus flavor that builds quickly across the palate. Mid-palate balances light fruitiness against moderate hop bitterness—neither dominates. The finish remains dry and refreshing, with a clean bitter edge that invites the next sip rather than lingering heavily.
