◌ Aroma

Fresh pomegranate dominates the nose, lending a tart fruity character that sits atop a subtle malty backbone. Light noble hop notes emerge as background support, contributing herbal whispers without assertiveness. The fruit character is clean and natural, with no fermentation esters competing for attention.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with pomegranate tartness and natural fruit sweetness, balanced against a restrained bittering from noble hops. The body remains light and quenching, allowing the fruit to remain the focal point throughout. The finish is dry without harshness, with the pomegranate acidity providing structure and preventing flatness.
