◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced tropical fruit notes—ripe mango, passionfruit, and pineapple—layered with fresh citrus zest that feels bright and inviting. Subtle herbal and grassy undertones from the noble hops emerge on closer inspection, while the clean fermentation profile allows these character notes to shine without yeast-derived funk.

◐ Taste

Entry is light and refreshing, with juicy tropical and citrus flavors unfolding across the mid-palate. The low alcohol sits comfortably in the background, allowing hop character and fruit esters to take the lead. Bitterness is restrained at 45 IBU, providing balance and structure without any harshness or lingering bite.

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
