◎ Appearance

Pale golden with excellent clarity and bright, clean presentation. The head is fine and persistent, laying down crisp Schaumkleiden along the glass. Carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating steady effervescence.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced dank resin and pine, backed by Simcoe and Chinook character. Tropical stone fruit emerges clearly—mango and apricot lead, with grapefruit zest cutting through. A subtle floral undertone rounds the bouquet without overwhelming the resinous core.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and hoppy, with the malt backbone providing measured sweetness before firm bitterness takes hold. Mid-palate expands into layers of mango, pineapple, and orange with persistent resin and pine notes. The 63 IBU bitterness is assertive but balanced, never harsh, resolving into a dry, refreshing finish.

◑ Finish

The aftertaste is clean and lingering, with grapefruit pith and pine resin extending the experience. A pleasant dryness persists without astringency, inviting the next sip.
