◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive citrus and tropical notes, dominated by grapefruit and mandarin alongside distinctive New Zealand and American hop character.

◐ Taste

The palate opens clean and crisp, with bright citrus and stone fruit flavors building quickly into a pronounced bitterness that defines the mid-palate. The rye contributes a peppery, slightly grainy dryness that reinforces the West Coast character, while 70 IBU of bitterness provides structure without harshness, finishing lean and refreshing.

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