◌ Aroma
The nose is subtle and restrained, featuring soft malt-forward aromatics with gentle bread and grain notes. Delicate noble hop character provides a whisper of floral restraint without dominating, allowing the clean lager yeast character to shine through.
◐ Taste

The finish is elegantly dry with minimal bitterness (15 IBU), allowing the smooth, delicate malt profile to persist without harshness.
