◌ Aroma

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright citrus and pine that carry through cleanly, developing a pronounced but balanced bitterness in the mid-palate. The 60 IBU strikes a firm edge without harshness, while the dry finish strips away residual sweetness, leaving a clean, resinous coating on the tongue.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
