Aroma

A subtle toasty, bready quality emerges from the sustainable bread component, adding textural depth without dominating. The overall impression is warm and approachable, with no sharp or aggressive hop edges.

Roasted flavors and chocolate sweep across the mid-palate, while coffee notes provide a gentle astringency. At 30 IBU, bitterness is restrained and balanced, allowing the malty sweetness to remain prominent without cloying.
