Half pint is a murky yellow with some frothy white head. You can tell this isn't straight mosaic. There is gooseberry and fresh cream, but light tropicals I don't associate always with mosaic to go along with some florals. Flavor is good and straight up. Light wheat. Some straw and dried flower petals. Stinky fruit and so much gooseberry. Dry and zippy finish. Grew on me.

IPA IPA IPA, pretty much everything is IPA influenced or bastardized by IPA today. I used to go to my local Mad mex, and they’d have a ton of different styles; now all 16 taps are pretty much IPA! Does anybody else out there frown on everything IPA? Whatever. Back to the rating. This beer is your typical dead on nasty for the style. IPA, just terribly bitter and difficult to drink along with ruining your taste buds ability to differentiate for over an hour. What makes this one different? Well it has a sweet hop perfume to start, not BO. Its a slight haze on pale. At first its not quite as bitter as I was expecting it to be. All of a sudden in the middle, it really starts to crank on the rudeness. Getting even brutal near the end. Finally, the session is over and it finishes with a big nasty nellie kick in the chin. Whew. Terribly on style.

Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a murky yellow-peach color with a large foamy yellow-white head that left minimal lacing. The aroma was pine, cactus, cat pee and was somewhat sweet. The flavor was dryish with cracker, cat pee, pine, cactus, a sweetish and tangy middle followed by more cat pee and cactus. Long finish that turned dry again. Moderately full bodied. Meh
