NEIPA - New England IPA 6.5 º 45 IBU

Unverhopft

This Hazy IPA showcases the vibrant, multifaceted nature of Citra hops in a single-hopped format. It pours with a characteristically opaque, glowing appearance that signals the juicy experience ahead. The nose is dominated by intense citrus and tropical fruit notes, specifically grapefruit, lime, and mango, layered over a neutral, grainy malt base. On the palate, the Citra variety delivers a burst of stone fruit and tangerine, supported by a soft, pillowy mouthfeel and a restrained bitterness that highlights the 'juicy' character. Clean fermentation and a medium-full body ensure a refreshing yet substantial finish, capturing the bustling energy of urban craft culture.

Appearance. Straw to light orange (3-6 SRM) with a deep, opaque haze that gives the beer a luminous quality. It features a persistent, rocky white head with high retention and decorative lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop-forward aroma with punchy notes of grapefruit, lychee, and tropical fruit from the Citra hops. A subtle, grainy malt sweetness resides in the background, while fermentation is clean and supportive.

Taste. Explosive fruit-forward flavors of lime, mango, and tangerine. The malt provides a neutral, bready backbone. Bitterness is moderate but perceived as low due to the soft water profile and body. The finish is off-dry and smooth.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate. There is a gentle alcohol warmth that is well-integrated and smooth, with no harshness or astringency.
