Fuerst Wiacek - Soft Apocalypse

Soft Apocalypse – Fuerst Wiacek's DDH Hazy IPA from Berlin with Citra, Nectaron & HBC 638

Soft Apocalypse by FUERST WIACEK from Berlin is a Double Dry Hopped New England / Hazy IPA at 6.8% ABV that arrives with a hop lineup as potent as its name suggests: Citra, Nectaron, and HBC 638 — three varieties that individually rank among the world's most expressive aroma hops, and together unleash a genuine aromatic apocalypse that, despite its intensity, remains disarmingly smooth and dangerously drinkable. Citra lays down the radiant citrus and passion fruit foundation, Nectaron stacks ripe mango, peach, and tropical depth on top, and HBC 638 — one of the most exciting experimental hop varieties of recent years — contributes an extraordinary combination of citrus oil, tropical fruit, and a subtly floral note that elevates the overall profile into a new dimension entirely.

What makes Soft Apocalypse so compelling is precisely what its name implies: the intensity arrives quietly, almost gently — and then hits with full force. The DDH process concentrates the aromatics of all three hop varieties to their maximum potential without compromising the creamy, soft texture of the NEIPA style. The result is a Hazy IPA that is simultaneously explosive in aroma and silky on the palate — a beer that wears its apocalyptic name with charm and elegance.
