◐ Taste

The palate delivers a smooth, malty entry with bread-like and caramel character that sits comfortably on the tongue. Mid-palate remains crisp and balanced, supported by 22 IBUs of restrained bittering that never overwhelms. The finish dries gently with mineral notes and a light, refreshing quality that invites the next sip.
