A deliciously light, fruity and moreish fresh pressed hazy cider. This best seller carries an abundant appley aroma to the nose. With more than a hint of citrus and berry delicately balanced against the apple sweetness on the palate, Hazy Rays is the perfect refreshing session drink for those lazy summer days.

Keg at Fell Bar, Penrith. Hazy yellow. Sweetish with just a light balancing tartness. Dessert apples with a little apple skin, some floral notes, a touch of vanilla and some lemon. A light, lively, vibrant brew that feels full of the joys of spring, and which was universally liked at our table. Refreshing yet full flavoured and satisfying - I couldn't believe the low ABV. Nice one Hogans!

12/9/2020. From BIAB at the Ale House, Chelmsford. Pours hazy pale gold with minimal head. Aroma of moderately sweet apples and citrus, with funky, woody, stable notes. Moderate sweetness and light tartness. Moderate body, low carbonation. Light drying finish. Enjoyed this, gets a lot from its modest abv.
