Pretty Mess

◎ Appearance

Pretty Mess presents a hazy, golden-orange pour with excellent clarity within its intentional cloudiness. A soft white head forms and lingers with gentle retention, creating fine lacing around the glass. The body shows bright, luminous color typical of the modern hazy IPA style, with active carbonation evident in the foam.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with vivid tropical fruit character—ripe mango and passion fruit dominate the initial impression, supported by clean citrus zest. The Citra, Mosaic and Amarillo hop blend delivers a layered, fruity aromatics that feels fresh and approachable. Subtle stone fruit undertones add depth without any harsh or grassy notes.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and pillowy, immediately delivering the promised juiciness across the palate. Peach, tangerine and stone fruit flavors unfold with natural sweetness, while a gentle, measured bitterness (50 IBU) provides structure without overwhelming. The 7% ABV remains well-integrated, allowing the hop character and fruit notes to remain the focal point.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and refreshingly fruity, fading with a subtle stone fruit and citrus aftertaste. Lingering brightness invites immediate return to the glass without any residual harshness.
