About This Beer

Jazz Witch is a Cold IPA from Wayfinder –– the brewery that invented the style! It’s got the luscious hop intensity of an IPA fused with the crisp, clean drinkability of a Lager.

They started with an adjunct Lager malt bill and fermented it warm with Lager yeast for a dry, clean canvas for the hops. In a luscious twist, they dry hopped Jazz Witch with nectarous New Zealand Hops for bright, tropical pops that bebop on the palate.

Tasting Notes

Juicy pineapple drips into refreshing pine with every smooth sip. Swirls of citrus – lemongrass, mandarin, and orange peel – lead into crackly baguette notes before a snappy finish that begs another taste.

Bright and lemony up front, dry notes of lemongrass, orangepeel and grapefruit bitterness creep in as it settles, fading to a crisp malt that lingers bready and citrus.

Never even heard of a “Cold IPA “ until now. Pretty tame, clean IPA aroma with lots of visual clarity. Has a more direct, sharp hoppiness that hits fast and fades away quickly and cleanly. Interesting for sure.

Lightly hazed floral citrusy funky hop aroma and flavor. Cold IPA or IPL ?!? Can’t figure out the difference (yet) but good either way. Had a few Wayfinder beers recently thanks to Tavour. Good stuff.
