Tasting Notes
I don't have specific notes on this beer, so this describes the style profile. Hazy IPAs in this range typically lead with big tropical and stone fruit aromas — think mango, peach, and sometimes passionfruit — carried by a soft, pillowy body that comes from the intentional use of oats or wheat in the grain bill. Bitterness is deliberately low, letting the late-addition and dry-hopped hops express juicy flavor rather than bite. The finish is smooth and relatively short, with residual sweetness that keeps things lush without tipping into cloying.
About the Brewery
I don't have reliable information about Farm One in my knowledge base, so I can't confirm their location, founding date, or lineup without risking fabrication.
Food Pairings
Hazy IPAs pair well with spicy Thai or Vietnamese dishes because the soft, fruit-forward hops temper heat without clashing. A classic cheeseburger works well too, with the juicy hop character echoing the richness of the meat. Soft-ripened cheeses like brie complement the creamy body of the beer. Fish tacos with mango salsa mirror the tropical hop notes and make the pairing feel seamless. Roasted chicken with citrus herbs also holds up nicely, since the beer's low bitterness won't fight the delicate savory notes.
Style Guide
The hazy IPA — sometimes called New England IPA or NEIPA — is defined by its intentionally cloudy appearance, low bitterness, and intensely fruity hop character derived from heavy dry-hopping rather than kettle additions. It emerged from small New England breweries in the early 2010s, with Vermont's The Alchemist and their Heady Topper often cited as the style's touchstone. Unlike West Coast IPAs, which emphasize resinous bitterness and a drier finish, hazy IPAs use soft water, high wheat or oat content, and late-stage hopping to produce a juice-forward, full-bodied pint. ABV typically runs between 6% and 8%.
