◐ Taste

Entry is light and crisp with restrained malt backbone and subtle breadiness. Mid-palate develops fine bitterness from 15 IBU without harshness, maintaining good balance between malt sweetness and noble-hop character. The palate remains refreshing and clean throughout, with no cloying residue despite the dealcoholisation process.
