◌ Aroma

The nose opens with layered citrus notes—predominantly grapefruit and lemon—backed by herbal and resinous undertones from the Citra, Citra Cryo, Idaho 7 and Mosaic hops. Beneath the vibrant hop profile lies a subtle tropical character with hints of stone fruit, while a delicate grassy, resinous quality grounds the aromatic composition.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers a clean, crisp attack with pronounced citrus and hop-driven bitterness that sits at the forefront without overwhelming the mouthfeel. The mid-palate shows tropical and herbal complexity, underpinned by a light, pale malt foundation that remains understated. Bitterness resolves to a dry, lingering finish that invites continued sipping rather than numbing the palate.

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