Can from Beer Karma, New York. Aroma is weedy Mosaic, tropical fruits, citrus, orange, mango, pale malt. Flavour is mild sweet with a bitter finish that includes a little hopburn. Body is medium. Nice hoppy aroma, lacks the smoothness of a top-tier NEIIPA.

Can. Pours a cloudy yellow with a slight orange hue and a white head that starts at the edges and dissipates nearly completely. Aroma has dank citrus and onion with some earthy sweet grains underlying. Flavor combines onion and citrus rind with a bit of citrus underlying.

Pretty enjoyable Mosaic bomb, offering up berry, peach, bubblegum, lemondrops, and grass, with a mild grainy sweetness underlined by hints of earth and pine. Not very pretty--the lack of head is surprising considering how carbonated the feel is--but a lovely Mosaic showcase.

16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned in 9/2019. Pours very hazy deep golden amber color with a 1 finger fairly dense and fluffy of white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin capo that lingers. Nice spotty foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, blueberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, mint, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, light toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt notes; with big strength. Taste of big tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, blueberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, mint, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, light toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, honeydew melon, guava, blueberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, mint, peppercorn, pine, wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, light toast, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and fairly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Mild increasing warmth of 8.6% after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic NEDIPA. All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops and bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the big ABV, with the modestly bitter/resinous/drying finish. Great soft feel, and not overly aggressive. Fantastic Mosaic showcase. Extremely juicy, vibrant, dank, and earthy hops; with a nice sized wheat/oat/malt backbone. Mild residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. A highly enjoyable offering, and outstanding style example. Loved the hop profile as expected.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a hazy gold with a quickly dissipating half finger of white foam. Big pungent, dank Mosaic nose with citrus, gooseberry, lychee and peach aromas. Spritzy, scratchy palate-cleansing carbonation with some mild hopburn notes. More dank, pine and tropical fruit notes on the palate. Lingering dank and pineapple on the finish. A touch boozy, but overall enjoyable.
