◌ Aroma

The nose is assertive and layered, leading with bright citrus zest—lemon and grapefruit pith—underscored by white pepper and subtle floral notes reminiscent of chamomile. A soft grainy character from the oats provides gentle backdrop without dominating. The noble hops contribute a refined, clean bitterness at the threshold of the bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with fruity citrus that evolves into a pronounced grapefruit bitterness, balanced by the soft mouthfeel imparted by oats and a touch of residual sweetness. Mid-palate brings spice and a refreshing dryness that keeps the beer lively despite its modest alcohol. The finish is clean and defined, without harshness.

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.
