Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Pale golden amber with bright clarity.
Nose
Fresh and approachable with notes of vanilla, green apple, and subtle coastal salt spray. Light floral hints emerge with time in glass.
Palate
Crisp and clean on the palate with citrus fruit, honeyed malt, and a whisper of peat smoke. The texture is light yet engaging with gentle spice development.
Finish
Medium finish with lingering sweetness, mild smoke, and a refreshing salty character that echoes the coastal location.
