◎ Appearance

Pale gold in the glass with bright, translucent clarity. A modest but stable white head forms on the pour, leaving delicate lacing as it recedes. Fine carbonation threads rise steadily, suggesting a crisp, refreshing mouthfeel.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with zesty citrus and bright floral top notes, layered with stone fruit and subtle tropical character. The five-hop blend—Mosaic, Summit, Cascade, Pioneer, and Azacca—weaves together without dominance, creating an aromatic profile that is approachable yet complex. A light, clean malt base supports the display without intruding.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and lightly hoppy, with citrus and tropical fruit notes unfolding across the mid-palate. The 40 IBU bitterness sits balanced rather than aggressive, complementing the fruit-forward character without overwhelming the session format. At 3.9 % ABV, the beer drinks light and refreshing while maintaining hop presence and complexity.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and relatively short, fading to a dry, slightly herbal aftertaste. The moderate IBU ensures no harsh lingering bitterness—instead, a gentle, fruity echo persists.
