To kick off the new year, Bale Breaker Brewing Company is adding a new beer to its year-round lineup for 2025. The latest beer to be packaged in 6-pack, 12 ounce cans is Duskbound Hazy IPA

Over the past few years, Bale Breaker continues to release a new and innovative beer to be added to its year-round lineup. Just two years ago, Bale Breaker released Daybreak Pale Ale as the first in a new line of innovative, modern beers. Daybreak Pale was followed by Skyward IPA, and later this month, this trio of updated releases is complete as Duskbound Hazy IPA joins the crew.

This trio focuses on what Bale Breaker does best: all three beers are clean, crisp, and hop-forward, and capture a variety of styles enjoyed by PNW craft beer drinkers. Daybreak Pale Ale, Skyward West Coast IPA, and Duskbound Hazy IPA all feature can artwork that mimics the movement of the sun throughout the day on Bale Breaker’s family hop farm in Washington’s Yakima Valley. These beers are the perfect treat for any time of day – reminding the drinker that great flavor makes for great days.

“We’ve brewed hundreds of hazies in our 12 years of operation,” says Bale Breaker co-owner and brewmaster, Kevin “Smitty” Smith. “We’ve learned a lot about brewing this style since we released our first year-round hazy IPA, Hazy L, five years ago.”

Duskbound is an updated take on the Hazy L recipe, which will be rolled back as Duskbound rolls out into the market. Featuring Citra®, Citra® HyperBoost™, HBC 630, and HBC 1019, with all of the hops grown on Bale Breaker’s 4th generation family hop farm, this hazy has a great summery punch of tropical fruit, peach, and melon.

“We think we’ve landed as close as possible to the perfect hazy with Duskbound,” says Smitty. “We took a lot of the things we liked about Hazy L, but amped up the hop profile with a new hop product from YCH, Citra® HyperBoost™, and an exciting new experimental hop that we’re loving, HBC 1019.”
