Euphorics™ Peachy Keen Hazy Pale Ale
Get the recipe for our experimental beer that was an off-the-charts hit at CBC 2024! Brewed with HPA Eclipse®, HBC 1019 experimental hops, and Euphorics Peachy Keen, this Hazy Pale Ale has just the right amount of citrus and stone fruit flavors.
Our newest flavor and aroma liquid product Euphorics is highly concentrated, water-soluble, and made with 100% natural hops and botanicals. Euphorics was made by brewers, for brewers to dramatically expand flavor and aroma possibilities.
We brewed 8 new beverages to serve at the 2024 CBC in Las Vegas, and every day the keg we found empty first was Euphorics Peachy Keen Hazy Pale. Its bright, crisp and “just fruity enough” flavor kept people coming back for seconds and telling their friends and colleagues to stop by for a taste. We think it’s a great example of how new Euphorics naturally integrates into beer and amplifies all the right flavors, and we want to share the recipe with you! It’s consumer-ready—or ready for you to put your own spin on—and we think you’ll love it.
Before we finalized this recipe we experimented using no dry hops, different dosing rates, and mixing flavors—in the end we feel really good about where we landed. This recipe uses hops you’re familiar with, and a good level of Peachy Keen Euphorics that’s impactful without being overpowering. The flavor is authentic with positive mouthfeel, and there’s no doubt you’re drinking a delicious Hazy Pale Ale. Happy brewing!
