Slightly hazy golden and light copper coloured body with a thinnish, two centimetre tall, just off-white head. Aroma of very fresh grassy and herbal hops with some subdued alcohol and floral elements and a touch of malt. Light-bodied; Strong herbal and grassy notes at first that shows a lot of the hop elements and leave the malt out completely with a very easy-to-drink taste. Aftertaste shows some mellow grass and herbal flavours that is very easy-to-drink with no depth nor pungency. Overall, a nice Light IPA with some good flavours and a mellow maltiness with a dry finish - good to sample and worth grabbing if you are in Texas! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Spec’s in Dallas, Texas on 11-November-2015 for US$1,04 sampled at home in Washington on 17-January-2016.

Sample at GABF 09/26/2015, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Hazy yellow-gold color with a medium white head that evaporates steadily. Short strings of lacing. Aroma of tropical fruit, hops and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of grassy hops, fruit and malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Above average overall.

Draft @ Oasis on 2 July, 2015. Aroma of Mosaic, Casacade / light grapefruit, tropical, light mango, peach and pineapple. The taste was spot on big Mosaic characters. Got tropical, scallions, green onion, light mango. Light body. Comes off nicely dry in texture.
Average carbonation. Abrupt, bitter finish. This grew on me somewhat as it went down. Pretty session IPA (I had three pints while playing darts and shuffle board)

Excellent pale ale. The beer is a tan yellow color, completely clouded over. The head is a thick blanket of white foam that leaves behind lots of lacing. Very good retention. The aroma is tropical fruit and citrus hoppiness. Tangerine, pineapple, peach, a little lime peel edge, lemon. Good stuff. It’s fresh and fairly juicy. Little malt character present, maybe just a bit of crackery grain. The taste is mildly bitter with decent hop flavor, pretty good for 4.5% abv, really. Light feel on the palate. Fairly soft with a bit of prickly from the carbonation. Tangerine, pineapple and lime notes bouncing around on top of a dusty, piney base. Again, not much malt contribution, which is a plus for me. This beer is right in line with the new wave of hoppy beers and reminds me of a Cellarmaker pale ale. It’s very easy to drink and quite refreshing.

Poured from a can. Aroma is super fruity with a lot of fruit notes. Pineapple, mango and peach are all rather prevalent. Lighter orange, grapefruit and melon. Hints of a dank note. Light, pale cracker malt notes. Pours a pale, hazy, yellow gold with a medium sized, moderately thick white head with decent retention as it recedes. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor has some light sweetness with a bit of a bread and cracker note. Medium high hop notes of pineapple, mango and peach. Lots of tropical fruit and lighter melon and citrus. A hint of a herbal, dank note. Medium bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Slightly creamy. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a surprisingly nice IPA. Easy drinking with some malt character and a ton of hop notes. This is really nice.

Can thanks to Daniel. Pours a cloudy gold with small white head. The aroma is pine and citrus. Medium mouth, nice pine, grapefruit, light bitterness, so crushable.
