◐ Taste

The palate enters with a full, malty body that establishes the beer's character immediately. Mid-palate develops a measured bitterness from the noble hop blend, balanced by the beer's inherent sweetness. The finish is crisp and clean, with the 40 IBU bitterness lingering without harshness, leaving a dry, refreshing sensation.
