New England Double IPA·United States·8.5% ABV·One of 37 New England Double IPAs in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Mind Haze Brain Melter's tropical and citrusy character. Brain Melter is the hazy imperial IPA of the Mind Haze line, first brewed at the end of 2023. It pairs classic American hop varieties with newer ones to build a fruit-packed aroma of tropical fruit, citrus and ripe peach. The haze and a full body round off the 8.5 percent strength, while 45 IBU give more structure than the other beers in the family. The finish is smooth and leaves a lasting citrus note.
