◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced dark chocolate and brown sugar notes, supported by subtle caramel sweetness and hints of dried dark fruit. Cascade hop character emerges as herbal and slightly spicy notes rather than citrus, complementing the malty foundation without dominating. The overall impression is balanced and inviting, with no sharp edges.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers a full, malty sweetness upfront with chocolate and caramel flavors building through the mid-palate. Dark fruit notes contribute subtle complexity, while the 18 IBU Cascade hopping provides restrained bitterness and herbal spice that prevents cloying. The finish remains smooth and rounded, with no astringency or hop bite.
