◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced tropical fruit notes—mango and passionfruit—layered with bright citrus undertones of lemon zest and grapefruit. The Mosaic hop character dominates without overshadowing a gentle, supporting pale malt base that adds subtle breadth. A clean, neutral yeast character allows the hop expression to shine without any fermentation artifacts.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a crisp, light body that immediately showcases tropical and citrus flavors from the Mosaic hops. Mid-palate brings a smooth, dry character with gentle bitterness—well-integrated at 35 IBU—that frames the fruit without asserting harshness. The pale malt provides a clean, delicate sweetness that balances the hop bite, creating an overall refreshing and approachable experience.

Serve at 7–10°C

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
