The use of top-fermentation yeast also contributes to the multi-layered, full-bodied aroma. The I.P.A. type "intense" bitterness is well balanced with a mild, easy-to-drink finish.

The package features an illustration of a craftsman with a warm touch on a bronze background. The "intense bitter" icon, which expresses the flavor characteristics, is placed in the center of the package.
