HAZED – Murphy & Son Dried Yeast

Hazed British-Style Ale Yeast

Hazed is a versatile British-style ale yeast designed for brewers seeking expressive flavour, vibrant hop character and stable haze in modern beer styles. Particularly well suited to juicy and hazy IPAs, Hazed enhances hop expression while contributing a balanced ester profile, soft mouthfeel and excellent drinkability.

Developed for today’s hop-forward brewing landscape, Hazed delivers the haze stability required for New England and Juicy IPA styles whilst maintaining the versatility needed for a broad range of traditional and contemporary beers. Its moderate ester profile complements rather than competes with hop character, allowing brewers to showcase their hop selection with confidence.

Flavour & Aroma Profile

Rich notes of stone fruit, berry, pomme fruit and tropical fruit help create a layered and modern beer profile, while the yeast maintains a soft, rounded finish.

• Pale Ale
• English Mild

Built for Dry-Hopped Beers

Hazed has been specifically developed to work alongside modern dry-hopping techniques. The strain delivers excellent haze stability when used with late-stage dry hop additions, helping brewers achieve the appearance and mouthfeel expected from contemporary hazy beer styles.

For optimum haze development, late-stage dry hopping is recommended, as early dry hop additions may reduce the haze formation that develops later in fermentation.
