Sensory Description:

The nose opens with grapefruit, lime peel, mango, passion fruit, and soft pine. The palate is plush and saturated without feeling heavy, carrying citrus oil, tropical fruit, and a gentle herbal edge through a smooth, hazy texture. Clean bitterness gives shape to the finish, keeping the beer focused and refreshing.

Brewer’s Background:

WeldWerks Brewing was founded in 2015 and quickly became one of Colorado’s most visible modern craft breweries, with Juicy Bits helping establish its national reputation for hazy IPA. Under owner and founder Neil Fisher, the brewery has continued to grow through rotating releases, experimental projects, and a disciplined approach to hop-forward brewing. Haze Drop: Citra Riwaka fits that model, highlighting two highly aromatic hop varieties in a focused, limited-edition format.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve chilled at 4 to 7 degrees Celsius in a tulip glass or IPA glass to emphasize hop aroma, haze-driven texture, and citrus lift. Pair with fish tacos, spicy fried chicken, green chile cheeseburgers, Thai curry, or sharp cheddar.
