Sloop Brewing Co. Natural Frequency
NEIPA - New England IPA 6.18 º
Natural Frequency is a lush Hazy IPA that exemplifies the style's soft, approachable nature. The foundation of 2-row, flaked oats, and flaked wheat creates a creamy, bready base reminiscent of shortbread cookies. Dry-hopping with Sabro and Motueka yields a complex bouquet of dragonfruit and bright orange peel. On the palate, the experience shifts toward lime custard and toasted coconut flakes, supported by a gentle, integrated bitterness. The finish is smooth and off-dry, emphasizing the juicy, tropical depth provided by the New World hop profile while maintaining a high level of drinkability and a velvety texture.
Appearance. Straw to light gold (4 SRM). Opaque haze with a brilliant white, meringue-like head that exhibits high retention and significant lacing.
Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring notes of dragonfruit, orange peel, and distinct creamy coconut. Background malt is clean, bready, and lightly grainy with no caramel or toast. Fermentation is clean and supportive of the tropical character.
Taste. High fruity hop flavor of lime custard, tropical citrus, and coconut. The malt provides a soft, shortbread-like foundation. Bitterness is low-moderate and well-integrated, masking any sharp edges. The finish is smooth and off-dry with lingering tropical fruit and no harshness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture derived from the high proportion of flaked grains. Carbonation is moderate. Alcohol warmth is very low and well-hidden.
