◎ Appearance

Pale golden yellow with pronounced haze throughout, typical of the style. The cloud derives from suspended yeast and protein, lending an opaque, inviting quality to the pour. A modest white head forms with moderate retention and fine lacing down the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with fresh-cut grass and tangerine, immediately followed by white wine grape and bread-like malted grain notes. As it warms, guava, melon, and lime leaf emerge prominently, supported by sauvignon blanc-like herbaceous complexity. The three-hop blend (Idaho 7, Sabro, Strata) creates a cohesive aromatic profile that balances tropical fruit with grassy, herbal undertones.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with pronounced guava and melon fruitiness, followed by lime leaf and sauvignon blanc-like herbaceous notes that persist into the mid-palate. Bready maltz character supports the hop expression without overwhelming it. Bitterness remains moderate at 50 IBU, providing structure and balance without harshness, allowing the fruit and herbal notes to remain the focal point.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and refreshing, with lingering lime and melon notes fading into a subtle bread-malt dryness. Carbonation supports a crisp, dry conclusion without astringency.
