◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by intense citrus and tropical fruit notes from the dual cryo-hop charge of Citra and Simcoe. Grapefruit zest and peach compote emerge alongside herbaceous pine, with a subtle creamy undertone that adds texture without softening the hop-forward character.

◐ Taste

The palate enters clean and hoppy, with bright grapefruit and orange notes developing across the mid-palate. The creamy mouthfeel balances the moderate 80 IBU bitterness, allowing tropical and stone fruit flavors to shine without becoming thin or harsh. The finish remains refreshing, with lingering bitter-citrus that never turns astringent.

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.
