pFriem Fresh Hop Hazy IPA

◎ Aussehen

A luminous sun-burnt rose gold beneath a thick, persistent white head. The beer displays the characteristic haze of a New England IPA—intentionally opaque with a soft, diffuse appearance that catches light warmly. Fine carbonation supports stable foam retention and lacing.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright, candied citrus—lemon and papaya—followed by stone fruit depth: ripe mango and peach. Fresh hop resin underlies the sweeter top notes, while sorbet-like qualities lend an almost confectionery airiness. A gentle herbal and lime edge prevents cloying.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is soft and fruit-forward, with powdered sugar coating the palate and ripe peach lending juicy mid-palate depth. The 45 IBU bitterness sits restrained and integrated, balancing citrus acidity without astringency. Lime provides a subtle herbal counterpoint without dominating.

◑ Abgang

The finish is soft and pillowy, with green melon notes fading gently into a clean, slightly dry fade. Bitterness recedes gracefully, leaving no harsh edges.
