Lobik Enigma
NEIPA - New England IPA 6.5 º
This Hazy IPA showcases the distinctive character of Enigma hops, delivering an intense sensory experience defined by a massive punch of overripe tropical fruit. The pour reveals a dense, opaque haze with a luminous quality, topped by a persistent, meringue-like white foam. On the nose, high-intensity aromas of passion fruit and rock melon mingle with subtle red berry notes, underpinned by a clean, grainy malt base. The palate follows suit with saturated hop flavors of mango and papaya, balanced by a soft, pillowy mouthfeel and restrained bitterness. It finishes smooth and juicy, highlighting the lush fruit complexity of the southern hemisphere hops.
Appearance. Straw to light amber with an orange hue; opaque haze with a characteristic shine. Thick, rocky, meringue-like white head with high retention and decorative lacing.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring tropical fruit notes of overripe mango and papaya, with subtle red currant and pinot noir-like esters. Clean, neutral, and lightly bready malt background with no caramel or toastiness.
Taste. High to very high fruity hop flavor mirroring the tropical aroma. Low to medium-low grainy malt flavor. Bitterness is moderate but perceived as low due to the soft, full body. Finish is off-dry and juicy with no hop harshness or astringency.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, pillowy texture and smooth finish. Moderate carbonation. Light, well-integrated alcohol warmth without any raw starch or acidic twang.
