◌ Aroma

Assertive and resinous hop character dominates the nose, with prominent pine and grapefruit notes from Columbus and Simcoe hops. A subtle citrus undertone—orange zest—emerges alongside the resin, while the malt backbone remains understated. The aroma is clean and fresh, with no phenolic or yeast-derived distractions.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a firm hop bitterness that carries the resinous pine and grapefruit character from the nose into the mid-palate. The malt provides a light, supporting structure without sweetness, allowing the noble bitterness to remain in the foreground. A dry texture builds through the middle, with orange notes adding subtle complexity before the finish.

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.
