◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by tropical fruit esters—mango, pineapple, and passionfruit—delivered by the noble American hop varieties. Beneath the fruit sits a clean, subtle malt backbone with minimal yeast character, allowing the hop profile to shine with distinctive citrus and orange zest notes.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright, forward hop bitterness balanced by a lean malt sweetness that prevents harshness. Mid-palate delivers layered tropical and citrus fruit character with a crisp, dry texture; the 60 IBU sits comfortably in the moderate range, creating structure without overpower. Finish is clean and refreshing, with lingering hoppy dryness.

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.
