Panda thanks to Cloin and also a can I managed to double up on. Hazy yellowish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, a little dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied pale malts deliver a very light creamy sweetness that seems pitched just right for this IPA. Crisp cooling pine hop salvo into stone fruity and pineapple juicy brightness that is well rounded off by coconut. Crisp cooling pine finish. A fine and refreshing IPA. If I had tasted this blind, I reckon Sabro would have been the first word I said. Mosaic, on the other hand, well probably the fiftieth. A perfect illustration of the varying degrees of weight individual hops carry and, another example of how faded Mosaic is these days. Sometimes a batch comes along and shows you what this hop consistently was back in the day but, this ain't that batch.
