Originating from East Coast USA, the New England or Hazy IPA style de-emphasizes hop bitterness and showcases hop flavour and aroma reminiscent of tropical fruit juice.

Get ready for Pineapple Express-a Dank Terpene IPA that's more legendary than Saul and Dale's escapades. Packed with flavours juicier than a pineapple farm and danker than a secret stash, you'll catch tropical vibes and skunky notes. We asked what it was like to drink it & Churly said "Ah, well, sir, I feel like a, like a slice o' butter... meltin' on top of a big ol' pile of flapjacks." So take that how you will. It's almost a shame to drink it. It's like killing a unicorn, with like, a bomb.

Behemoth Brewing is finally ready to unveil their Imperial Red IPA, Royal Red with vast oil on canvas showing a larger-than-life King Churly.

With deep malty undertones and a crown-worthy hop punch, Royal Red is a nod to the majesty of a classic, with a playful jab at the royal palette. This beer is fit for a king-or anyone with a taste for the finer things.

Well you wanted a Hazy IPA, that is what you have here in your hot little hand. Behemoth has combined some of their all time favourite hops: Citra, Mosaic, El Dorado and Galaxy to bring you a medley of soft juicy flavours and aromas. They put the good things in so you can wear the something hazy grin.
