Malandar Carajaula #1
Carajaula #1 is a vibrant Hazy IPA that captures an immediate sense of freshness. The assertive dry-hopping with Citra and Mosaic leads the charge, saturating the senses with a lush bouquet of mango, pink grapefruit, and tropical passion fruit. Beneath this intense hop profile, a soft, bready malt foundation provides a supportive structure without distracting from the fruit-forward character. Despite the signature New England IPA opacity, it maintains a refined amargor that balances the juicy sweetness. The result is a smooth, exceptionally drinkable experience where the interplay of citrus and stone fruit lingers through a clean, velvety finish.
Appearance. Color is straw to light gold (4–5 SRM). Hazy and opaque with a luminous quality. Pours with a dense, rocky, meringue-like white head that displays excellent retention and leaves thick lacing.
Aroma. High intensity aromatics defined by powerful tropical and citrus hop notes. Citra and Mosaic contribute layers of ripe mango, passion fruit, and tangerine. The malt presence is low and neutral, offering subtle bready and grainy notes, while the fermentation profile is clean with supportive fruity esters.
Taste. High impact fruity hop flavor mirroring the aroma with prominent notes of stone fruit and citrus. Malt flavor is low, providing a soft, bready backdrop. The bitterness is moderate and well-integrated, contrasting the soft mouthfeel without being harsh. The finish is off-dry and smooth, featuring a lingering tropical fruit aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a soft, silky texture. Carbonation is moderate. No harshness or astringency is present, and the 6% ABV provides a very light, well-integrated warmth.
