50/50: Cashmere/Mosaic

Can shared with my girlfriend, fourth of the 50/50 series. Pours a hazy yellow with a decent amount of head. Aroma is hoppy and quite juicy, soft, and spicy and herbal with quite a bit of pine and resin. Medium body. Flavour is malty and quite sweet, with a distinct caramel touch. Medium bitterness. Juicy with a punch of herbal hops and lots of orange and grapefruit as well as earthy pine. Medium bitterness. Smooth, but at the same time with an earthy and herbal edge and even a tad of booze. The hops comes out nicely in this one, similar to the cashmere/ekuanot version, whereas here the mosaic brings out earthy and herbal accents and a hint of blueberry. Nice pine and herbal hops accents, at the same time juicy with lots of citrus fruit and some forest fruit notes like blueberry. Really lovely IPA, super balanced and probably the best hops combination in this series. I have liked all the 50/50s but this is really excellent and super drinkable. A modern NEIPA/west coast IPA hybrid, resulting in a modern juicy but still bitter and pine driven IPA. Almost up there with the Narangi!

More berry, equally yes. Left.

Good stuff! nicely balanced between sweetness, bitterness and fruity hops.
