Three distinct beers.
Three iconic pedals.
Endless sonic and flavour experimentation.
We're huge music lovers here at Cloudwater, with producers, DJs, musicians and other creatives amongst the team. Our working day always has some sort of soundtrack. So we all know the feeling of popping into the pub after a long day and seeing your favourite pint on tap. Perhaps they’re playing an album you love, and you settle in thinking ‘yeah, I’m defo gonna spend a bit of time here’. Ahhh so.
That’s what Fuzzy is to us – it’s the warmth of familiar fun that puts us at ease. It’s a reliable buzz that we can always count on. We’ve been thinking about all the things our house pale ale means to us, and in celebration of its delicious features we’ve designed FuzzFest to amplify its best bits.
Each new beer in the series steps it up, goes further, hits harder, before culminating in one of the hoppiest beers we’ve ever made (well, since we first made beers this damn hoppy back in 2017).
Whether you’re looking for something familiar or whether you’re ready to turn up the volume, come journey into the noise with us. Who knows what new delights you might find.
The FuzzFest 2026 Lineup In Full
Fuzzy - 4.2% Hazy Pale Ale
The starting point for FuzzFest and the central pillar we've built on. For over ten years, we’ve been crafting pioneering hazy beers, blending hand-selected hops into a recipe inspired by our 2018–2020 Signature Pale.
Designed for ultimate drinkability and refreshment, it’s bursting with fruity, peachy goodness and finished with a velvety smooth mouthfeel.
Tone Bender - 5.5% Fruited Pale Ale
Inspired by the legendary distortion circuits created by engineer Gary Hurst, Tone Bender is a bright, aggressively fruit-forward expression of our signature pale ale Fuzzy. By incorporating 300kg of puréed peach and apricot, this release turns up the gain - delivering soft stone-fruit flavors, delicate floral undertones, and a crisp, refreshing finish driven by natural apricot acidity.

6o66 - 7.5% DDH IPA
Pushing into overdrive, 6o66 is a bold, aggressive DDH IPA that amplifies everything you love about Fuzzy with a dramatically louder profile. Driven by a massive dry-hop blend of Citra T90, NZ Cascade, Simcoe Cryo, and Sabro Cryo, every sip is saturated with ripe peach, vibrant tropical citrus, subtle coconut, and a hit of dank resin. Devilishly heavy.

Half Life - 6% Hop-Saturated IPA
High-powered saturation. Half Life offers our first exploration into hop saturated IPAs.
Overloaded with Citra, Simcoe, NZ Cascade & Nelson Sauvin Hyperboost each drop is amplified by a 40g/L dry hop rate, blending frequencies of lemon rind, syrupy pineapple juice and a big hit of white wine grape from concentrated Nelson Sauvin Hyperboost. IPA distortion at its max.
Please note this beer is only available on keg
