◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with the wheat providing a soft, slightly dry foundation. Mid-palate balances the citrus and hop bitterness—present but never aggressive at 38 IBU—against a restrained malty sweetness that keeps the beer approachable and sessionable. The finish is clean and drying, allowing the bright hop character to linger without heaviness.
