NEIPA - New England IPA 5.5 º

Amundsen Bryggeri

This single-hop Hazy IPA showcases the vibrant potential of El Dorado hops, delivering a saturated sensory experience that captures the essence of tropical and stone fruits. Pouring with an alluring golden glow and a dense, meringue-like white head, it releases dominant aromas of fresh sliced pineapple, ripe mango, and sweet candied watermelon, backed by a soft, bready malt foundation. On the palate, the juicy flavor profile mirrors the aroma, bringing additional notes of ripe peach and bright citrus before culminating in a smooth, low-bitterness finish. Soft, pillowy, and incredibly drinkable, it epitomizes modern New England-style execution.

Appearance. Pours a hazy, glowing straw-gold to light orange (SRM 4) with an opaque, luminous quality. Capped by a dense, persistent, meringue-like white head that leaves beautiful, thick lacing as it recedes, completely free of any visible yeast clumps or particulate floaters.

Aroma. High-intensity aroma dominated by a wave of tropical and stone fruits, highlighting candied watermelon, ripe mango, fresh pineapple, and soft peach from the single-hop addition. A clean, doughy, and bready malt profile sits quietly in the background, complemented by subtle, fruity fermentation esters. Free from any grassy or herbal notes.

Taste. An initial explosion of sweet tropical juice, with distinct flavors of sliced pineapple, soft pear, and ripe peach. The malt character is low, offering a clean, bready, oat-like support. Perceived bitterness is low to moderate, strictly soft and integrated, countering any cloying sweetness. The finish is off-dry and remarkably clean, with a lingering aftertaste of juicy citrus and tropical fruit, entirely devoid of harshness or hop burn.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full, pillowy body with a soft, rounded, and silky texture. Carbonation is moderate. Alcohol warmth is barely perceptible, offering just a clean warmth without any hot or solventy notes. Smooth and satisfying, lacking any starchy graininess or astringency.
