NEIPA - New England IPA 6 º 6 IBU

La Débauche

La Débauche Afterwork presents as a quintessential Hazy IPA, delivering a vibrant sensory experience designed for approachable sessions. This New England IPA opens with an intense bouquet of tropical fruit, specifically ripe mango and pineapple, complemented by a bright citrus zest. The palate follows suit with a lush, juicy profile where the hops provide layers of stone fruit and passionfruit against a soft, bready malt backdrop. Despite the massive hop-forward character, the bitterness remains restrained and smooth, leading into a clean, off-dry finish that emphasizes drinkability. Its soft, pillowy texture and opaque appearance define this modern classic as a refreshing reward after a long day.

Appearance. Straw to light amber (4-6 SRM) with a deep, opaque haze that creates a matte-like shine. Topped with a persistent, rocky, meringue-like white head that leaves dense lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity hop-forward aroma featuring dominant notes of mango, guava, and candied orange peel. Background malt is clean and neutral, suggesting lightly bready or doughy character with no caramel. Esters are supportive and fruity, blending seamlessly with the tropical hop profile.

Taste. High fruity hop flavor mirroring the aroma with layers of nectarine, grapefruit, and tropical punch. The malt flavor is low to moderate, providing a grainy, wheat-like support. Bitterness is moderate and well-integrated, never sharp, balancing the soft sweetness of the fruit notes. The finish is smooth and medium, leaving a lingering tropical aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, rounded, and silky texture. Carbonation is moderate, contributing to the overall smoothness. Very light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present without any harshness or astringency.
