Black Hops Caribbean Haze Hazy IIPA

TASTING NOTES

Caribbean Haze was originally brewed in collaboration with Mount Gay Rum for the 2019 Great Australasian Beer Spectapular (GABS). This Caribbean-inspired hazy Double American IPA is spiced with citrus, pineapple, mango and coconut-infused Mt Gay Black Barrel Rum, to give this already aromatic style a fresh Caribbean twist.

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

Black Hops Brewing is three mates making craft beer and sharing everything they learn along the way. After discussing a concept over beer at the pub, Dan, Eddie and Govs set off to make their first beer, the Eggnog Stout. Once the pilot brew batch was out, their attention quickly turned to doing a proper commercial brew.

They opened the doors to their own brewery and taproom in Burleigh Heads in June 2016.
