NEIPA - New England IPA 10.2 º

FrauGruber Brewing

This potent Double IPA captures a dense sensory landscape, driven by a heavy-handed application of Citra BBC and Nectaron hops. The Citra BBC delivers concentrated layers of bright grapefruit and tropical mango, while the Nectaron adds luxurious notes of ripe peach and pineapple. At 10.2% ABV, the beer presents a sophisticated balance between aggressive bitterness and a clean, supportive malt backbone. It pours with a luminous golden hue, offering an aromatic intensity that transitions into a lingering, resinous finish. Despite its significant strength, the palate remains remarkably nimble, embodying the modern craft approach to high-gravity, hop-forward ales.

Appearance. Deep gold to light orange color (8-10 SRM). Features a moderate-sized, persistent off-white head with excellent lacing. Clarity is mostly clear with a very slight, modern hop-induced haze.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by citrus and tropical notes from Citra BBC, including lime zest and mango, alongside Nectaron signature stone fruit character of peach and nectarine. Background malt is clean and neutral, with a faint, smooth alcohol presence and light floral esters.

Taste. Initial impression is an explosion of tropical fruit and resinous pine. Mid-palate reveals stone fruit sweetness and a soft, grainy malt support. High hop bitterness is firm but not harsh, leading to a dry, clean finish with a lingering aftertaste of grapefruit pith and peach skin.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth texture. Carbonation is medium-high. A distinct but well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, reflecting the 10.2% ABV, without any solventy harshness or hop-derived astringency.
