Aroma

Floral and herbal undertones emerge beneath the assertive hop aromatics, with a clean, dry-hopped intensity that exemplifies contemporary IPA sensibilities.

Taste

The palate opens with crisp citrus and hoppy bitterness that immediately engages the taste buds, transitioning into substantial pine and resinous notes mid-palate. A subtle malty sweetness provides balance and body, while the firm 65 IBU bitterness remains clean and well-integrated without astringency, creating a harmonious hop-forward experience.

Finish

The finish is distinctly dry with lingering herbal and pine notes that fade gracefully, leaving a clean palate with a pleasant hop-driven aftertaste. The 6.5% ABV allows the finish to feel crisp and refreshing rather than warming.
