pFriem Hazy IPA

◎ Appearance

Pours a cloudy mango-orange hue, characteristic of the New England style, with a creamy head that settles into fine lacing. The moderate haze—achieved through oat groats and pale malt—sits deliberately between clarity and full turbidity, creating a soft, inviting visual presence.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright stone fruit and citrus from Mosaic, Citra, and Eclipse hops—clementine, peach, strawberry, mango, and papaya dominate the first impression. Beneath the tropical fruit lies a juicy white grape and subtle whipped citrus character, with Chinook contributing depth without aggressive pine or resin.

◐ Taste

Entry is full-bodied and soft on the palate, driven by the oat and malt foundation. Mid-palate delivers white grape and juicy grapefruit notes that echo the aroma, while a measured citrus-rind bitterness (35 IBU) provides structure and balance without dominating the fruit-forward character.

◑ Finish

The finish is soft and warming, with citrus notes lingering gently into the aftertaste. The moderate alcohol (6.8%) supports a clean, dry conclusion without heat or harshness.

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.
