◌ Aroma

The nose leads with fresh, tropical pineapple fruit that feels natural and genuine rather than extracted or candy-like. Soft wheat grain and a subtle honey undertone provide gentle support, while a light citrus note adds dimension. The overall impression is clean and refreshing without any artificial adjunct character.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and immediately fruit-forward, with pineapple flavor delivering both sweetness and a subtle acidic bite that keeps the beer balanced. The mid-palate shows soft wheat malt base with integrated honey notes, while bitterness remains very gentle at just 10 IBU, allowing the fruit character to dominate. The overall impression is light and drinkable without cloying sweetness.

◑ Finish
