Palm Hop Select has a
fruity aroma of fresh
hops with a dominant
but fine bitter
aftertaste. Because of
its low alcohol content,
delicate and fine seafood
such as shellfish
go perfectly with this
beer.. Beautiful, smooth
flavours such as cauliflower
cream with a
bit of sour cream take
away some of the bitterness.
The beautiful
aroma bouquet is much
better accentuated by
diverting attention from
the bitter hops.
