Description

Mosiacism Session IPA is a true display of the Mosiac hop. Not high in ABV or dark in color so the hop is showcased in the aroma, flavor and finish. This beautiful floral and citrussy hop was used for the entire brew with nothing else clouding it’s true qualities. You’ll be coming back for more with our Mosaicism.

This single hop Mosaic session IPA measures in at 4.6% abv and 52 IBU. The aroma is very prominently Mosaic hops with aromas of citrus, tropical fruit, mango, and a bit of dankness. The hop flavor is slightly cleaner with citrus, peaches, mangoes, and herbs with a background of nutty malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a lingering nutty malt and citrusy and mango hop character. The hop prominence is definitely IPA strength yet the light malt character manages to cut through the hops to provide a backbone despite being a smaller beer. Many session IPAs tend to come off as thin and watery or overly bitter and astringent; this session IPA works on all accords.
