◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent fruity esters alongside bright noble-hop characteristics. Tettnanger and Hallertau Mittelfrüh contribute a gentle floral and herbal quality, with subtle citrus notes threading through. Wheat and grain add a soft, bready undertone without overwhelming the hop-forward profile.

◐ Taste

The palate enters light and crisp, with immediate fruity and hoppy character balanced by restrained bitterness. Mid-palate reveals wheat and oat softness alongside a persistent hop bite that builds gradually. The 21 IBU provides definition without harshness, allowing the delicate malt foundation and citrus notes to remain present throughout.

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