Catching Feelings is a lush Hazy IPA that captures the essence of a tropical orchard through a modern hop lens. An intensive double dry-hopping with Mosaic and Idaho 7 drives a massive sensory profile defined by ripe mango, juicy stone fruit, and fuzzy peach. On the nose, these varieties deliver a punchy, sweet perfume that leads into a palate-coating explosion of tropical fruit flavors. The bready malt foundation provides a soft, pillowy platform for the hops to shine, while a subtle, alluring bitterness ensures a balanced and drinkable finish. Smooth and seductive, this beer epitomizes the juicy character of the style, offering deep complexity without any harshness.
