Two heavyweights with complex flavors meet head-on in this one-of-a-kind IPA. Mosaic-probably one of the most aptly named hops-fuses an array of tropical fruit, citrus and berry with mild herbal, earthy and pine characteristics. Grady Eureka hops emphasize heavy pine, underlined by mild floral notes and rounded out with dank aromas.

Pretty hazy gold - amber beer, tidy pa;e cream colour head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Airy malts, mildly sweet. Hop spice into spicy orange. Soft pine and mild mango led tropical fruits. Smooth finish. Lacks the complexity of the other Hop Concepts I’ve tried but it’s smooth drinkable.

Bottle sourced from Kihoskh, Copenhagen (split with the Mrs) - pours orange amber with a big white head. Fruity and malty with some nice citrus and tropical fruity character, notes of orange, peach and mango aplenty, solid sweet caramel malty base, pine needles, hoppy bitter close. Good stuff!
