◌ Aroma

Vibrant and inviting, with ripe mango and fresh lime dominating the nose. El Dorado hops weave in candied pear and subtle tropical stone fruit, creating an aromatic profile that is juicy and fruit-forward without heaviness. A soft, clean maltiness underpins the fruit without demanding attention.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright, natural fruit sweetness from mango and lime, supported by a barley and oat grist that delivers a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. The sour character develops gradually, offering tart citrus notes and a gentle, refreshing acidity that balances rather than overwhelms. Bitterness remains restrained at 10 IBU, allowing the fruit and soft grain to remain the focal point.
