◌ Aroma

The nose opens with assertive noble hop character—earthy and herbaceous notes mingle with subtle floral complexity. Beneath lies a solid malt foundation that grounds the profile without obscuring the hop-forward character. Pine and citrus notes emerge as the beer warms.

◐ Taste

The palate arrives full-bodied and balanced, with a generous malt sweetness that supports rather than masks the hop intensity. Bitterness builds through the mid-palate in a structured, measured progression—earthy and herbal rather than sharp. Residual dryness and subtle citrus keep the beer refreshing despite its weight.

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.
