pale goldenbright clarityfine carbonation

◌ Aroma

Grapefruit and fresh citrus dominate the nose, immediately apparent and honest. The Edelhopfen contribution is subtle and measured, supporting rather than competing with the fruit character. A light, crisp malt foundation provides structure without adding sweetness to the bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright citrus and juicy grapefruit that carries through the mid-palate with good definition. Bitterness remains restrained at 12 IBU, allowing the fruit and refreshing character to lead without harshness. The finish is clean and dry, with residual sweetness kept to a background note rather than dominating the flavor arc.
