◌ Aroma

The nose leads with assertive citrus notes—lemon zest and grapefruit pith dominate—backed by clean noble hop character. A subtle malty sweetness grounds the profile without dominating. The overall impression is crisp and herbaceous, with no harsh alcohol or yeast-derived compounds.

◐ Taste

Entry is bright and dry, with citric hop bitterness settling immediately on the palate. The mid-palate maintains hop intensity while a light bready malt foundation provides balance and prevents one-dimensionality. Bitterness is clean and measured at 60 IBU, finishing dry without astringency.

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.
