The Lizard King isn't one to sit out an epic battle! Lizard King Mosaic Hopped Pale Ale is a Pipeworks classic. This beer is crisp, easy, and full of vibrant berry, pomegranate, pineapple, and woodsy aromas. The goal when brewing this beer was to create a beer that's chill enough to be a go-to but still something worth the crown - enter: The Lizard King!

An IPA wearing a facade of a pale ale,
Styling this IPA as pale is totally frail.
IPAs I find are particularly vile,
But brew-masters make them by the pile.
There are so many a man,
Who brews all he can.
They say its a brew of craft,
At that I particularly laughed.
Many smell like BO and wet socks,
Sometimes like an old cat litter box.
The flavor of pine in a used diesel can,
And burns like a medicine in a hot frying pan.
Those bitter-forward abominations,
Sometimes cause me gag deep ruination.
Tasting like straight up ass
Like a rotting green grapefruit mass,
And a long quite bastard finish of foul sensation.

Lime and citrus, some pineapple. Good hops profile. Clear golden pour with big head of foam. Lot of things to like about this pale ale. A little unripe nectarine. Kind of a soft citrus finish but doesn't come off too hop tangy. Can.

tap at bar in FW. Solid APA - on the stronger side, but full bodied - a little tropical. Pretty darn good
