NEIPA - New England IPA 5 º

Garage Beer Co

This Hazy IPA captures the essence of late summer with an explosive tropical profile. A saturated aromatic display of ripe mango, tangy passion fruit, and juicy pineapple defines the experience, driven by a sophisticated hop blend of Strata, Idaho 7, and Mosaic Spectrum. These varieties weave together to create a 'zingy' sensory impact that emphasizes fruit saturation over bitterness. The palate is remarkably soft and approachable, balancing a light, bready malt sweetness with a smooth, lush texture. It finishes clean and refreshing, leaving a lingering impression of tropical nectar and sun-drenched stone fruit without any hop harshness.

Appearance. Straw to pale gold (4-6 SRM) with a deep, opaque haze and a characteristic 'shine.' Features a dense, rocky, meringue-like white head with high retention and thick lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by mango, passion fruit, and pineapple. Clean, neutral, and lightly bready malt character sits in the background. Fermentation is clean with supportive fruity esters that complement the Strata and Idaho 7 hop qualities.

Taste. High fruity hop flavor featuring concentrated pineapple and mango from the Mosaic Spectrum. Low perceived bitterness provides a soft, 'juicy' balance. The malt flavor is low, offering a grainy, doughy support. The finish is off-dry and smooth with a clean, fruity aftertaste devoid of any sharp or harsh hop burn.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a soft, plush, and rounded texture. Carbonation is moderate. No astringency, harshness, or raw starchiness is present, resulting in a very easy-drinking and smooth sensation.
