This super duper hazy small-batch IPA is dry-hopped to the brim with Cashmere and Chinook. Juxtaposing aromas of cotton candy and sweet pineapple work surprisingly well with a resiny pine bite and notes of fresh-squeezed grapefruit.

On tap at Tap@1918 in Rocky Mount NC. Pours a murky gold with a nice off-white head. Initial impression is juicy peach, apricot, and grapefruit - not as intense as many NEIPAs, but quite tasty nonetheless. Mouthfeel is slick and smooth. Finish fades to a nice neutrality between sweet and bitter. My first beer from this brewery.

Like smelling and tasting an artificially infused drink. Not Hi-Wire's best offering, but not the worst ever I would say too. I prefer a more bitter beer from hops.

Built with the powerhouse hops of Citra and Mosaic, Hi-Wire Brewing uses this universal cheat code of flavor to power a super juicy and hazy IPA.

Densely packed with visual weight, Super Haze pours with a foggy matte golden orange before crowning with a frothy stark-white cap. With a branch ripe and radiant scent of citrus, tropical fruit, berry, hemp and herb rolling off the rim, the fist sip leads with a candied sweetness, cereal, light honey and shortcake.

As the hops bounce off of the middle palate, the focus soon turns to their fruity impressions of citrus with tangerine, red grapefruit and a kiss of lime before folding in more tropical flavors to the mix with mango, passionfruit and papaya. All wrapped in the juiciness of cantaloup and lingering sweetness, the beer eventually trails into a smooth finish of black currant, black tea, verbena and soft cedar.

Medium full in body and celebrating a partly refreshing, partly flavorful balance, the beer finishes on the maltier side of malty-dry with a linger of tea, hemp, fresh grassiness and a hint of spruce tips and botanical gin spices.
