Sensory Description

'Radiant Haze' pours a golden-amber color with an opaque appearance, topped with a nearly perfect off-white head.

The backbone provided by the starches balances the hop bite, resulting in a smooth mouthfeel reminiscent of a West Coast IPA. Despite its haziness, 'Radiant Haze' delivers a solid, layered dose of hops without overpowering bitterness, making it a versatile choice for IPA lovers.
