Basqueland Hop Snack
NEIPA - New England IPA - 6.7º
Basqueland Brewing
Basqueland Hop Snack is a vibrant Hazy IPA that offers a complex sensory "snack" through a lush, oat-heavy grist. The aroma is dominated by the unique interplay of Sabro providing distinct coconut notes, while El Dorado and Amarillo contribute bright grapefruit skin and bursts of red fruit. Palisade adds a nuanced herbal layer, grounding the tropical profile. On the palate, the inclusion of flaked oats creates a soft, almost creamy sweetness that balances a restrained bitterness. It finishes smooth and juicy, showcasing the depth of biotransformation and late-hopping techniques characteristic of this modern style.
