◐ Taste

The palate opens with crisp, hoppy character that immediately delivers citrus and subtle pine notes against a firm, clean malt foundation. Mid-palate maintains excellent balance with medium body and a building bitterness (50 IBU) that feels well-integrated rather than aggressive, finishing with dryness and grain character.

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