Production & Heritage

Saint Errant Brewing is a nanobrewery in Chicago, Illinois, founded with a philosophy rooted in travel, friendship, and the broader craft brewing community. The brewery maintains a strong focus on mixed fermentation beers while consistently exploring clean fermentation styles like Overgolded. This DDH hazy IPA is double dry-hopped with Nelson Sauvin — a New Zealand hop prized for its white wine and gooseberry character — alongside Citra, one of the most celebrated American hops for its citrus and tropical fruit intensity. The double dry-hop process loads the beer with amplified hop aromatics while keeping bitterness restrained, in keeping with the New England IPA tradition.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Nelson Sauvin drives the aromatic profile toward white grape, gooseberry, and a suggestion of Sauvignon Blanc-like fruitiness. Citra layers in bright notes of grapefruit, passionfruit, and ripe mango, creating a complex and inviting nose.

Taste: The entry is soft and juicy, typical of the hazy IPA style, with tropical fruit and citrus peel arriving immediately. Mid-palate, the Nelson Sauvin adds a distinctive grape and stone fruit quality that separates Overgolded from single-hop Citra beers. Bitterness stays low and rounded, letting the hop flavor do the talking.

Finish: Medium in length with a slightly resinous, pithy grapefruit quality and lingering tropical sweetness. The mouthfeel remains pillowy and full through the close, with minimal astringency.

How to Drink Overgolded

Pour Overgolded into a tulip glass or wide-mouth pint to open up the hop aromatics — drinking directly from the can mutes the Nelson Sauvin's aromatic complexity. Serve cold, around 40–45°F. This beer is best enjoyed fresh and on its own, though it works well in these contexts:

• Beer Shandy: Mix half-and-half with fresh lemonade for a sessionable warm-weather drink that plays off the citrus hop character.
• Michelada riff: The soft body and tropical notes hold up against lime, hot sauce, and Tajín for a hazy twist on the classic.
• Hoppy Radler: Combine with grapefruit juice for a lower-ABV sipper that extends the Citra's natural citrus qualities.

Best For

• Sharing with friends who appreciate small-batch craft beer from independent breweries
• Pairing with a weekend cookout or taco night
• Introducing someone to Nelson Sauvin's distinctive white wine hop character
• Stocking a curated fridge for a hazy IPA tasting flight

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Overgolded taste like? Overgolded is a juicy, haze-forward IPA dominated by tropical fruit, white grape, and citrus flavors with a soft, pillowy mouthfeel and restrained bitterness. The Nelson Sauvin and Citra hop pairing gives it a layered fruitiness that blends grapefruit, passionfruit, and gooseberry.

How does Overgolded compare to other DDH hazy IPAs? The use of Nelson Sauvin sets Overgolded apart from the many hazy IPAs built exclusively around American hops like Citra, Mosaic, or Galaxy, giving it a vinous, almost wine-like top note that's less common in the style. Its nanobrewery scale also means smaller, more controlled batches compared to larger regional hazy IPA producers.

Is Overgolded good for hazy IPA fans? Yes — it lands squarely in the modern hazy IPA tradition with a soft, unfiltered body and hop-forward profile, but the Nelson Sauvin component adds a distinctive twist that rewards experienced hazy drinkers looking for something beyond the usual hop bill.

Where is Overgolded made? Overgolded is brewed by Saint Errant Brewing, a nanobrewery located in Chicago, Illinois, known for small-batch production across both clean and mixed fermentation styles.

What foods pair well with Overgolded? Fish tacos with mango salsa play into the tropical hop character. Soft, creamy cheeses like burrata or fresh mozzarella complement the pillowy body. Grilled chicken with a citrus glaze echoes the grapefruit notes. Thai green curry's herbal, coconut-rich flavors balance the hop intensity. Ceviche mirrors the beer's bright, fruity acidity.

What sizes does Overgolded come in? Overgolded is sold as a 4-pack of cans, which is the standard retail format for this release from Saint Errant Brewing.

Is Overgolded worth the price? Overgolded positions in the craft premium tier typical of nanobrewery DDH hazy IPAs, where small-batch production and specialty hops like Nelson Sauvin justify a higher per-ounce cost compared to widely distributed hazys. Its 4.2 Untappd rating across thousands of reviews suggests strong consumer satisfaction at its price point.

Why Overgolded?

What makes Overgolded stand out in a crowded hazy IPA field is the Nelson Sauvin and Citra hop combination — a pairing that delivers layered tropical, citrus, and white wine aromatics rarely found in a single beer. Saint Errant's nanobrewery scale means each batch receives close attention, and the brewery's dual expertise in mixed and clean fermentation brings a level of technical care that shows in the finished product. A 4.2 Untappd rating from over 2,200 reviews confirms that Overgolded consistently delivers. For drinkers who know their hops and want something beyond the standard Citra-Mosaic formula, this is a beer worth seeking out.
