NEIPA - New England IPA 7 º

Bad Bones

This Hazy IPA showcases a vibrant southern hemisphere hop profile, led by the zesty lime and lemon characteristics of Motueka. Complementing this is the unmistakable white grape and crushed gooseberry essence of Nelson Sauvin, which lends a sophisticated vinous depth to the tropical base. At 7% ABV, the beer presents a soft, pillowy texture that carries waves of passionfruit and citrus through a juicy mid-palate. Grainy, bready malt remains in the background, providing just enough support for the intense hop expression. The finish is smooth and low in bitterness, leaving a lingering, fruity shine that defines the modern New England style.

Appearance. Pours a hazy, opaque straw-yellow with a bright, luminous shine. Capped by a persistent, rocky, meringue-like white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring distinct notes of crushed gooseberry, white grape, and fresh lime zest. Tropical layers of passionfruit and subtle peach esters are supported by a clean, neutral, grainy-sweet malt backbone.

Taste. Dominant fruity hop flavors of lime, passionfruit, and gooseberry lead the palate. The malt provides a soft, bready foundation without any caramel sweetness. Bitterness is low and well-integrated, resulting in a smooth, off-dry finish that emphasizes juice-like hop saturation over sharp edges.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, pillowy mouthfeel and smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate. A light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present at 7% ABV, with zero astringency or harshness.
