Saturate is a dry-hopping black hole. It kicks o a series where we take a single hop and push it to its limits - beginning with Mosaic. From a
simplified grist of Floor Malted Maris Otter, Wheat Malt and Oats - Saturate begins with Columbus & Mosaic in the whirlpool before a 4 stage dry hop building to a dry hop rate of 20g/L all the while being fermented on our house English ale yeast. It’s an up-close look into the spectrum of Mosaic’s aroma ranging from pineapples, passionfruit, pine and blueberries with a favour that continues through tropical fruits to a pithy resinous finish

05-09-17 // 500ml can from Dollard in Dublin. Enjoyed straight from the can. Hazy orange. Fruity hop Aroma. I just love the mosaic hop, it provides so much Tropical fruit flavours. This was fresh fruity hoppy with a solid bitter finish. Extra Points for the great design ;)

Can from O'Brien's, Athlone [060817]
Orange, light milky, frothy white head
Aroma of orange, soft pine, no alcohol
Taste of citrus zest hops, orange zest, soft sweet fairly juicy pale malt - I did get that bit of onion as well
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, good bitter sweet balance, rather sweet but bitterness of the hops offsets this, getting hint of the alcohol. Finish of bitter zest
Overall - Quite good overall, but just lacking that something
