Tap into a wineglass showing lightly filtered hazy orange with clean white foam. The nose shows dank cannabis with notes of mango and light guava. The palate is medium bodied and moderately carbonated. Flavors of mango mixed with dank cannabis on a solid malt backbone. Refreshing and superb.

Bottle, many thanks minutemat! Hazy orange color with big creamy white head. Aroma is mosaic with dank flavours of tropical fruits, blueberry, pineapple, melon, resinous, a touch of sweat and onions, biscuits, some yeasts. Taste is tropical fruits, melon, pineapple, sweatsocks, grassy, very juicy, biscuits and bread. Rather fizzy carbonation. Quite a harsh finish with sweatsocks, onions and more tropical fruits. As so many Mosaic beers, this one is on the more sweaty side, but it works out!

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Danny! Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Great aroma, melon, tangerine, grapefruit. Light-medium sweet flavour with juicy melon and tangerine, low bitterness, pale bread. Medium bodied with average carbonation. No key balanced finish, a little resinous, with more tangerine and melon, juicy orange. Quite enjoyable.
