Malandar Silk
NEIPA - New England IPA 7.5 º
Malandar Silk is a luscious Hazy IPA that exemplifies the 'juicy' character of the style through a massive double dry hop of Mosaic, Citra, and Galaxy. The aroma is an intense bouquet of passionfruit, ripe mango, and bright citrus zest. On the palate, the hop-derived stone fruit and tropical notes are cradled by a soft, rounded malt backbone, enhanced by the addition of lactose to create a remarkably smooth, velvety texture. This interplay results in a low-bitterness profile where the vibrant fruit flavors of the Citra and Galaxy hops linger pleasantly into a clean, pillowy finish.
Appearance. Color is golden-yellow (5 SRM); opaque with a characteristic hazy shine; features a medium, meringue-like white head with high retention and beautiful lacing.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by tropical passionfruit, mango, and citrus zest; background malt is clean, grainy, and lightly bready; fermentation is neutral with supportive fruity esters; no herbal or grassy notes.
Taste. Initial impression is a fruit explosion of peach, pineapple, and lime; low bready malt flavor; low to moderate perceived bitterness that remains soft and hidden by the body; finish is off-dry and smooth with a lingering tropical fruit aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a notable velvet-like smoothness from the lactose; moderate carbonation; light, well-integrated alcohol warmth; no astringency or harsh hop burn.
