Brunch So Hard delivers a vibrant sensory experience that mirrors its Mimosa-inspired roots. This Hazy IPA is defined by an intense burst of tropical mango and bright orange, driven by fruit additions and a layered hop profile. Azacca and Citra hops provide a lush base of pineapple and citrus, while Hallertau Blanc contributes a sophisticated white grape nuance. Supportive bitterness from Galena and Warrior ensures a clean foundation without overwhelming the palate. The malt character remains neutral and bready, allowing the juicy fruit esters to lead into a soft, smooth finish that captures the refreshing intent of this unique collaboration.

Appearance. Pours a pale gold to light orange (4-6 SRM) with a characteristic opaque haze that gives the beer a vibrant, luminous quality. It features a medium, rocky, meringue-like white head with high retention and thick lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop and fruit aroma. Dominant notes of fresh orange zest and ripe mango are complemented by hop-derived stone fruit, pineapple, and a subtle vinous quality. The malt is clean and lightly grainy, serving as a neutral background with no caramel or toast present.

Taste. A juicy initial impression of orange and tropical fruit. High hop flavors of mango and citrus dominate, supported by a low, bready malt character. Perceived bitterness is moderate but soft, never sharp or harsh. The finish is off-dry and smooth with a lingering, pleasant fruity aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, silky texture that lacks any astringency. Carbonation is moderate, providing a gentle lift to the fruit flavors. A light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present at 6.5% ABV.
