A glowing medium gold with exceptional clarity, presenting the brightness of a Juneau sky. The head forms with generous initial volume and maintains a fine, persistent collar that clings to the glass. Carbonation appears lively throughout, with steady streams of fine bubbles rising through the transparent body.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with vibrant citrus and stone fruit notes, dominated by ripe pineapple and fresh tangerine from the Mosaic and Sultana hops. Beneath the juicy fruit layer sits a subtle pine resin character with gentle herbal undertones. The overall impression is bright and refreshing, with no rough edges or harsh alcohol detection.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and creamy, with juicy tropical fruit flavors immediately apparent on the palate. The mid-palate develops orange and peach notes alongside a subtle piney, resinous character from the Citra and Strata additions. Bitterness remains restrained at 35 IBU, offering balance rather than dominance, while the light body carries a surprisingly full mouthfeel that lingers without heaviness.

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.
