This Hazy IPA, a collaboration between Deviant & Dandy and BrewDog, presents a quintessential New England profile defined by its luminous, opaque appearance. A quartet of classic American hops delivers an intense aromatic trifecta of bright citrus, lush tropical fruit, and distinct berry notes. The grist, featuring significant additions of oats and wheat, provides a characteristic soft, pillowy texture that carries the juice-forward hop character across the palate. It balances high fruity intensity with a restrained, smooth bitterness, concluding in a clean, off-dry finish that highlights its 6.5% ABV without overwhelming the delicate fruit-forward esters.
Appearance.Ranging from straw to light orange (4-6 SRM) with a characteristically opaque, hazy shine. It features a medium-high, meringue-like white head with excellent retention and lacing.
Aroma.High intensity aromatics of ripe tropical mango, zesty grapefruit, and a notable berry-like sweetness. The background offers a clean, lightly bready and grainy malt presence from the oats and wheat, complemented by supportive fruity fermentation esters.
Taste.Massively hop-forward with layers of pineapple, citrus zest, and mixed berries. The malt provides a soft, bready foundation that offsets the moderate-low bitterness. The finish is smooth and off-dry, lingering with juicy fruit character rather than harsh hop resin.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a silky, smooth texture attributed to the heavy use of flaked grains. Carbonation is moderate, contributing to a soft mouthfeel with a gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth at 6.5% ABV.
