◐ Taste

Entry is clean and vibrant, with citrus and tropical fruit flavors unfolding immediately across the palate. The mid-palate exhibits excellent balance between the hoppy bitterness and a light, delicate malt sweetness that never overwhelms. Bitterness is pronounced but refined, with a dry, piney character that complements rather than dominates the overall drinking experience.

Tulip glass

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