◌ Aroma

The nose leads with soft malt character—bready and grain-forward without heaviness. Subtle spice notes emerge from noble hops, contributing a gentle herbal complexity that complements rather than dominates. The overall impression is clean and approachable, with no solvent or yeast-derived off-notes.

◐ Taste

The palate opens full-bodied and smooth, with pronounced malt sweetness balanced by restrained bitterness (22 IBU) and understated hop spice. Mid-palate carries grainy, slightly sweet character without cloying; the finish remains crisp and refreshing despite the absence of alcohol. This brewing restraint allows malt and water quality to shine.
