Quick Facts: ABV: 6.7%  |  Origin: Anaheim, Orange County, California  |  Style: Hazy IPA  |  Brewery: Radiant Beer Co.

Production & Heritage

Radiant Beer Co. operates out of Anaheim in Orange County, California, a region that has become a legitimate hub for modern craft brewing. Halos in the Outfield is built around a hop bill of Citra, Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, and Amarillo — each selected for overlapping tropical and stone fruit qualities that amplify one another rather than pulling in separate directions. The result is a beer with a pillowy, soft body and minimal perceived bitterness, designed to drink well below its 6.7% ABV.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Tropical mango leads immediately, followed by ripe stone fruit and a citrus brightness likely driven by the Citra and Amarillo. There is a gentle resinous undertone from the Simcoe that keeps the nose from becoming one-dimensional.

Taste: The entry is soft and juicy, with mango and pineapple landing on the palate first. Mid-palate brings white peach and a faint gooseberry tang courtesy of the Nelson Sauvin hops. Bitterness stays low throughout, letting the fruit-forward hop character stay front and center.

Finish: Medium in length with a clean, lightly dry close that avoids lingering sweetness. A whisper of citrus pith rounds out the final impression.

How to Drink Halos in the Outfield

Drink this one cold, straight from the can or poured into a tulip glass to open up the aromatics. A hazy IPA at 6.7% ABV is sessionable enough for multi-beer occasions but complex enough to reward attention on its own. It works in a Beermosa with fresh-squeezed orange juice for a brunch twist on the mimosa. Try it alongside a Michelada riff using hot sauce and lime, where the beer's tropical sweetness tempers the heat. It also pairs naturally with a Beer Margarita — blending a portion with tequila and lime for an unconventional warm-weather serve.

Best For

• Watching baseball or game-day gatherings where a crushable, flavorful beer is essential
• Introducing hop-forward styles to someone who dislikes bitter IPAs
• Warm-weather backyard sessions with friends
• Building out a craft beer tasting flight focused on Orange County breweries

Why Halos in the Outfield?

What separates this beer from the crowded hazy IPA field is the specificity of its hop combination. Rather than simply piling on volume, Radiant Beer Co. selected Citra, Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, and Amarillo for their complementary tropical and stone fruit profiles, creating a cohesive flavor arc rather than a scattershot hop showcase. The 6.7% ABV keeps it in genuinely drinkable territory without sacrificing the hop density that makes the style worthwhile. For drinkers who want a hazy IPA that prioritizes fruit character and body over bitterness and alcohol heat, this Anaheim-brewed release delivers precisely that.
