◐ Taste

The palate balances lightly sweet Malz flavors with a refreshing citrus and grassy bitterness that builds gradually across the mid-palate. At 22 IBU, the hop bitterness remains restrained and refined, allowing the subtle honey and fruity notes to shine without overwhelming the overall expression. The mouthfeel is smooth and approachable, with crisp carbonation enhancing the clean finish.
