◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus—orange and tangerine dominate, accompanied by stone fruit and passionfruit notes from the double dry-hop charge of Citra, Motueka, Rakau and Mosaic.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and fruit-forward, with crushed citrus and peach flavors establishing the palate immediately. The mid-palate develops a creamy, full mouthfeel from the oat and wheat additions, while bitterness remains gentle and integrated at 30 IBU. Vanilla and tropical notes weave through, keeping the profile balanced and drinkable without cloying sweetness.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
