Juicy, dank, and tropically punched up, Alvarado Street‘s Shark Tooth Necklace Hazy IPA is a hop-bomb delight that will transport your taste buds to a beachy paradise. This bright and flavorful New England-style IPA showcases the brewery’s masterful ability to pack in huge hop flavors while keeping everything delightfully smooth and drinkable.
The beer pours a brilliant glowing orange color with a pillowy off-white head. Aromas of fresh-squeezed orange juice, ripe mango, dank herb, and resinous pine instantly greet your nose. There’s an unmistakable juiciness to the hop aromatics that has you yearning for that first sip.
Taking a drink, you’re met with a luscious soft mouthfeel brimming with tropical and citrus hop flavors. Notes of juicy orange, ripe pineapple, and sweet mango create a fruit smoothie-like essence that’s balanced by hints of dank cannabis and piney bitterness. The hop profile tastes vibrantly fresh and delightfully punchy yet smooth.
While intensely hoppy, there’s just enough biscuity malt backbone to provide a platform for the hop flavors while keeping it eminently drinkable. The finish is dry and clean with just a whisper of lingering grapefruit zest bitterness on the palate.
Alvarado has crafted a world-class example of the style with Shark Tooth Necklace. It’s a hop flavor bomb loaded with layers of lush tropical fruits and dank resinous notes, yet dangerously easy to throw back thanks to the soft, pillowy mouthfeel. This vibrant NEIPA belongs in your shower beer rotation.
