◐ Taste

The palate is full and expressive, with pronounced malt sweetness balanced by a gentle caramel body that evolves smoothly across the mid-palate. Moderate bitterness (25 IBU) sits in the background, providing structure without harshness; the finish remains clean and slightly crisp, with warming alcohol evident but never harsh.
