Wonder Crush

Tap to rate

Wonder Crush is a hazy IPA of moderate strength with deliberately low bitterness. It pours a light gold with a bright haze and a creamy, lasting head. The hops carry the beer: lime and mango lead, followed by stone fruit and further citrus notes. The texture is velvety, and the restrained bitterness leaves the fruit in the foreground through to the finish. It is part of the year-round range.

The palate enters clean and smooth, with wheat providing a soft, slightly grainy foundation. Banana and clove flavors develop mid-palate in gentle harmony, while the low bitterness (14 IBU) allows the delicate yeast character to shine. The mouthfeel is light and crisp, finishing dry without astringency.
