At a tasting, small creamy bubbly head, hazy palish yellow color, herbal, mineral soap and a hint of spice, lots of spice in flavor with some fruit and a bit of resin, light bitterness. Drinkable but not too good.

A nice, hazy citrus IPA with a good, grassy hop kick. Doesn't deviate from the type much but it's very drinkable.

Can drunk 1/11/18.
Glassy, moderately-to-lightly hazy, soft blonde-golden. White head atop shows moderate retention.
So much Mosaic in the nose. While there's some good pineapple, nectarine and tangerine, there's also moderate onion and heavy vegetal, almost plastic-y character.
Quite malty for Mason's; usually they feel a bit thin and undermalted, though this here has some softness to it. Pretty carried away with the Mosaic trend here and it's just bursting with lime, garlic, onion, pineapple and lemon. Tons of pine and vegetal character. Low bitterness, mostly engaging carbonation. Ok.

16 oz can, pours a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is fairly piney, with floral hops and biscuity malt. Flavour is very dry, with floral hops and dry biscuity malt. Bone dry on the finish. Easy drinking stuff.
