Basqueland Smiling Eyes
NEIPA - New England IPA - 10º
Basqueland Brewing
This Triple IPA delivers an assertive sensory profile defined by an intensive hop charge of Mosaic, Citra, Galaxy, and Simcoe. The aroma is saturated with ripe stone fruit and succulent melon, accented by a distinct jelly bean-like sweetness. On the palate, a clean, grainy malt backbone supports high-intensity hop flavors ranging from tropical citrus to a subtle, resinous spice. Despite the substantial 10% ABV, the beer remains impressively drinkable with a medium-dry finish and firm, smooth bitterness. It exemplifies a modern Double IPA approach, focusing on saturated fruit complexity and a refined, warming fermentation character that lingers delightfully.
