NEIPA - New England IPA 7 º 55 IBU

Maplewood Brewing Company

Juice Pants is a vibrant Hazy IPA that exemplifies the "juice bomb" profile through a heavy application of Citra and Mosaic hops, including their cryo-processed versions. The sensory experience is dominated by an explosion of stone fruit and tropical flavors, specifically ripe mango, peach, and passionfruit, driven by the Mosaic and Citra hop blend. A soft, grainy malt backbone provides a bready foundation, allowing the intense hop oils to shine without overwhelming bitterness. The result is a lush, fruit-forward profile with a smooth, pillowy character that highlights the depth and complexity of modern hopping techniques.

Appearance. 4-6 SRM. Opaque, hazy golden-yellow with a bright shine. Dense, rocky, meringue-like white head with excellent retention and thick lacing.

Aroma. High intensity aroma of tropical fruit (mango, pineapple) and stone fruit (peach, apricot). Distinct citrus notes of grapefruit and tangerine from Citra, with a subtle berry-like edge from Mosaic. Low bready/grainy malt; clean fermentation profile with supportive esters.

Taste. High to very high fruity hop flavors echoing the aroma; tropical medley and peach nectar dominate. Low to medium-high perceived bitterness that is well-masked by the soft body. Malt is light, bready, and neutral. Finishes off-dry and smooth with a lingering, juicy tropical aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, creamy, and pillowy texture. Moderate carbonation. Very light alcohol warmth is well-integrated. No harshness or astringency.
