Ale NE

◎ Appearance

Pale straw to pale gold in color, with a distinctly hazy, opaque appearance characteristic of the New England style. The head forms quickly and clings well to the glass, leaving persistent lacing. Fine carbonation creates a soft, pillowy texture throughout the pour.

◌ Aroma

Immediately tropical and fruit-forward on the nose, with bright notes of passion fruit, mango, and stone fruit from the Mosaic and Citra hops. Subtle wheat undertones provide a soft, grain-derived backdrop, while the hopping remains clean and aromatic without aggressive resinous notes. The overall impression is of concentrated hop juice with vibrant, juicy character.

◐ Taste

Entry is juicy and soft, with tropical fruit flavors dominating the mid-palate—citrus zest, mango, and subtle stone fruit emerge clearly. The wheat and oat malts contribute a light, pillowy mouthfeel and gentle grainy sweetness. Bitterness is restrained at 6 IBU, allowing the fruit-forward hop character to remain the focal point while maintaining balance and drinkability.

◑ Finish

Clean and refreshing, with lingering tropical fruit notes and a light, crisp dryness. The moderate alcohol and low bitterness allow the finish to remain bright and approachable.
