◐ Taste

The palate enters crisp and refreshing, with citrus flavors—grapefruit and lemon—leading the charge across the midpalate. Light, well-integrated bitterness (20 IBU) sits in balance; the malt sweetness remains restrained, allowing the hop character and underlying fruity esters room to breathe. The finish is dry and clean, with no lingering heaviness.
