◐ Taste

Entry is full-bodied and well-structured, with the malt-driven foundation offering a gentle sweetness that serves as ballast for assertive bitterness. The mid-palate expands into a pronounced hop bitterness (32 IBU) that is clean and integrative rather than aggressive, complemented by a subtle spicy note that echoes the aroma. The finish remains crisp and drying, with lingering bitterness.
