Pours a clear canary yellow with bright, lively carbonation evident throughout. The head is light but present, with fine bubbles that dissipate steadily. Clarity is excellent, with no haze or suspended matter.
◌ Aroma
The nose opens with fresh lemon and lemon candy notes, immediately inviting. A layer of buttered corn follows, accompanied by subtle yeast and sweet malt undertones. Noble hop character remains restrained, allowing the grain and citrus to lead.
◐ Taste
Entry is dry and brisk, with corn and grain flavours establishing quickly on the palate. Mid-palate transitions to fresh barley notes with clean malt character. The bitterness is soft and well-integrated, never harsh or assertive.
◑ Finish
Clean and malty aftertaste with no lingering astringency. The finish fades gracefully, leaving a dry, refreshing impression.
