Hop, Skip & Juice from Vocation Brewery is a British speciality beer created for those seeking a generous, contemporary expression of hops in a 33 cl can. This Hazy Pale Ale, also part of the modern NEIPA family, is brewed in collaboration with Marble Beers. It takes a full, fruity and vibrant aromatic approach, far removed from the sharp bitterness that can sometimes intimidate curious palates. At 5.7% ABV, it offers a characterful tasting experience without sacrificing the soft mouthfeel that makes hazy beers so appealing. Mango, peach, pear and exotic fruit come together like the colours of a summer still life, while Simcoe and Citra BBC hops add aromatic depth. A distinctive proposition designed to turn an ordinary aperitif into a delicious interlude.

A fruity, smooth and resolutely modern expression

• Tropical profile: notes of mango, peach, pear and exotic fruit create a delicious, expressive and fragrant tasting experience.
• Selected hops: Simcoe and Citra BBC provide a precise aromatic structure, where citrus brightness complements the richness of the fruit.
• Measured finish: moderate bitterness provides an elegant counterpoint while preserving a soft sensation on the finish.
• Hazy and unfiltered style: this Hazy Pale Ale delivers an inviting texture, characteristic of modern fruit-forward IPAs.
• Vegan-friendly choice: its recipe is suitable for a vegan diet, welcoming more beer lovers to the tasting table.

The interplay of Simcoe and Citra BBC hops

The personality of Hop, Skip & Juice is built around an aromatic composition crafted with Simcoe and Citra BBC hops. They bring a citrusy and tropical dimension to this blonde beer without overshadowing its rounded fruitiness. Mango delivers a generous impression, peach adds a soft, velvety nuance, while pear extends the profile with a more delicate sensation. Exotic fruit completes the picture with an energy evocative of faraway gardens. As the beer is unfiltered, it may contain natural sediment, an inherent feature of its style. This presence contributes to its identity as a Hazy Pale Ale, offering a more textured and enveloping experience than a clear beer. The balance sought here is not about showing off, but about creating a harmonious interplay between aromatic intensity, freshness and moderate bitterness.
