Taste

The palate opens with bright citrus and tropical fruit notes that immediately engage the taste buds, followed by a moderately assertive bitter backbone (65 IBU) that feels well-integrated rather than aggressive. The mid-palate showcases a crisp, dry character with resinous pine and grapefruit complexity, while the malt base remains clean and supportive without sweetness.
