Modus Operandi has added a new beer to its core range, Modus Hazy, driven by the desire to bring an exciting and flavourful product to the hazy category. The Modus team six months blind tasting different batches of hazy beer to release a high-quality and fine-tuned product.
Modus Hazy reflects the brewery’s ethos of “beer first, no shortcuts”. Tasting notes describe fruity and tangy aromas and layers of fresh hazy flavours on the palate.
Modus Co-founder Jaz Wearin said that amid a difficult period for craft brewers, new releases have to be exceptional to stand out.
“We don’t take adding to our Modus Beer core range lightly – the last one was in 2022 – and in the current market a core range beer has to be really outstanding to stand out, or you have to have one hell of a marketing budget. This is a hazy, but we are wanting to present to the market something evolved,” she said.
