About This Beer

As the name suggests, Drekker brewed this one for fans of big, pillowy Hazies built for comfort, not speed. Its cushy body and juicy flavors are a great companion for a couchside hang, whether it accompanies a good book, your favorite show, or just a warm, crackling fire. You can thank the sunkissed additions of Mosaic, Sabro, and Belma Hops, as well as a lacing of fluffy spelt.

Tasting Notes

This Imperial Hazy wraps the palate in bursting watermelon, ripe cantaloupe, bright lemon, and zesty orange flavors. The brew is so soft, so down-comforter comfy, you’ll likely forget it’s got that 8.4% ABV!

A sweet, almost lactose smoothness with plenty of hop bitter.

Tastes like a bad bock. Maybe it’s a bad batch

Something just seemed a little off for me. Can’t tell if maybe it was a new hop or “softness” of this ipa or maybe the lemon/melon flavors. It’s not bad and I wouldn’t mind having it again, but not my favorite

Drekker doesn't disappoint when it comes to DIPAs. Strong citrus and pine aroma followed up with smooth melon finish. My only complaint is I wish more Drekker beers appeared on Tavour! BEERS FROM THE LAND OF ICE AND SNOW!

So pillowy and drinkable for a double IPA. Fruity and creamy with an amazing clean finish. Drekker is quite astounding with their balance of flavor. Keep em coming!

Drekker’s sours are the best around but their IPAs are hit and miss for me. this one is a hit for sure. Nice, citrusy subdued flavors and minimal IPA ‘bite’. Soft is a great way to describe it.

Chris W. hang! edition. Rich and hoppy, yet smooth, tropical with plenty of citrusy zip. Another terrific Drekker offering at…WHAT? My H‑E‑B? (Well, not mine 😩😒, but hopefully soon.)

I loved this hazy! Such a great aroma, quite fruitful and had such a nice smooth finish! I order them any chance I get on TAVOUR now!

Happy to have something to look forward too while watching this horrific NBA playoff game. Beautiful cushiony, soft body as advertised. Great fruity melon flavors. So smooth, and creamy. This is phenomenal. Even better than I thought. I love Drekker.
