◐ Taste

Citrus acidity leads the palate with pronounced lime throughout the middle, balanced by a clean, crisp malt sweetness. The salt element enhances the overall sensation of brightness without becoming harsh. Bitterness remains restrained at 15 IBU, allowing the adjuncts to shine while maintaining the dry, refreshing character of the style.
