Stargazer IPA is brewed to complement the season’s cooler nights and its crystal-clear body offers a distinctive take on the IPA style. Combining the strong tropical aromas typically associated with hazy IPAs and a crisp, clean finish, Stargazer IPA breaks new ground. At 6.2% ABV, it strikes the perfect balance between lighter summer ales and heavier winter brews, making it ideal for enjoying North Carolina’s long, mild autumn.

“We’re thrilled to release a fresh, modern IPA in time for the crisp autumn season,” said Nate Williams, Carolina Brewery’s Brewmaster. “This beer highlights the best of Carolina Brewery—clean reverse osmosis water, a new hop strain, and our passion for good beer. I look forward to sharing six-packs with my friends around a crackling campfire!”

Stargazer IPA is perfectly suited for pairing with the flavors of fall. The bright tropical notes and balanced bitterness pair effortlessly with Carolina Brewery’s pub menu. Spicy dishes like the Chicken Burrito Bowl or hearty, savory fare like the Bison Burger are the ideal complements to the beer’s flavor profile. For shared plates, the Potato Chip Nachos washed down with a pitcher of Stargazer IPA is a must-try.

The beer’s name, Stargazer, is inspired by those peaceful moments spent outdoors under the stars as the seasons change. “We wanted to create a beer that reflects the beauty of fall evenings—clear, crisp, and perfect for enjoying with friends around a fire,” said Nate Williams.
