◎ Appearance

Hazy pale gold with a fine, persistent white head that clings to the glass. The opacity derives from deliberate use of oats and torrefied wheat, creating a characteristically cloudy New England profile. Moderate carbonation supports steady lacing down the bowl.

◌ Aroma

A layered tropical fruit bouquet opens with ripe mango and passionfruit, backed by Nelson Sauvin's distinctive grape and gooseberry undertones. The dry hop blend of Citra, Mosaic, Talus, Sub Zero Kief and Kohia amplifies citrus notes—orange zest and grapefruit—without aggressive herbal or resinous character. Subtle grain sweetness grounds the profile.

◐ Taste

The palate presents a silky, rounded entry dominated by mango and citrus, with Nelson's gooseberry-grape complexity unfolding mid-palate. Bitterness remains restrained at 50 IBU, integrated rather than prominent, allowing the fruit-forward character to persist without harsh edges. The mouthfeel is full and creamy, sustained by oat and wheat contributions.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with mango and passionfruit impressions fading gradually. A gentle, lingering citrus sweetness and hop resin persist without astringency.
