◐ Taste

Entry is dry and straightforward, with pleasant malt sweetness quickly overshadowed by pronounced hop bitterness. Mid-palate holds firm bitterness with a peppery, moderately harsh edge that persists through the swallow. The dry finish accentuates the hop character while maintaining structural balance despite the elevated IBU load.
