This Hazy IPA from Stigbergets Bryggeri delivers an intense sensory experience typical of the modern New England style. Pouring with a luminous, opaque golden glow and a persistent meringue-like head, it immediately releases high-intensity aromas of tropical mango, ripe passion fruit, and bright citrus zest. The palate follows with a lush, juicy explosion of stone fruit flavors supported by a clean, bready malt backbone. Despite its 7% ABV, the bitterness remains restrained and soft, perfectly integrated into a medium-full, velvety body. The finish is smooth and off-dry, leaving a lingering impression of sweet tropical nectar without any hop harshness.
