NEIPA - New England IPA 6.2 º

Saltus
Tensina

This Hazy IPA, a collaboration between Saltus and Tensina, presents a lush, tropical profile driven by a heavy-hitting hop trio. Citra and Mosaic deliver layers of ripe mango, pink grapefruit, and passion fruit, while Nelson Sauvin adds a sophisticated top note of crushed gooseberries and white wine grapes. The sensory experience is anchored by a soft, bready malt backbone and a signature opaque, glowing straw appearance. A smooth, velvety mouthfeel carries the intense juicy character through a finish with restrained bitterness, ensuring the vibrant, fruit-forward expressions of these New World hops remain the focal point of every sip.

Appearance. 4 SRM. Opaque straw to light gold with a healthy hazy shine. Features a thick, rocky, meringue-like white head with excellent retention and substantial lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by mango, passion fruit, and citrus zest. Distinctive Nelson Sauvin notes of white wine and gooseberry are prominent. Background malt is lightly bready and grainy, supporting subtle fruity fermentation esters.

Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tropical fruit juice. High hop flavors of tangerine, stone fruit, and green grape. Low bready malt flavor provides balance without sweetness. Perceived bitterness is moderate-low and soft, finishing medium-dry with a clean, lingering fruity aftertaste and no harshness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, velvety texture. Moderate carbonation provides a gentle lift. Very low alcohol warmth is well-integrated, and there is no detectable astringency or hop burn.
