This east coast IPA continues our Contrast series of hops, expressed in the form of a juicy New England IPA vs more bitter, drier West Coast IPAs. The hop selection for this version is more typical of a NEIPA. A dry hopping of Cashmere, Citra, and a touch of Bru-1 set the scene for a tropical fruit party. The Cashmere and Bru-1 interplay to push out big pineapple, melon, and coconut notes with the Citra providing a hefty dose of peach and slight zingy citrus. This is set over a grist of extra pale ale, malted wheat, and a heavy dose of flaked oats contributing to the smooth, silky mouthfeel with a medium, high sweetness.
