CLUB release #64
90’s train beer DIPA
Synth Hops- Mosaic T90, BBC, Cryo & Lupomax
Music pairing – Moonrunner83
Visual pairing – Train Spotting (1996)

…from a mix of chats with long-time club member Lucy and our shared love for the 1996 film Trainspotting, this beer had been waiting in the wings for a while.The pairing between Mosaic hops and Trainspotting felt natural. Mosaic’s dank, punchy, pungent character mirrors the film’s raw drug fuelled intensity, while its bright, juicy notes reflect the moments of humour and hope that shine through.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 30/01/25.
Hazed orange topped with a just off white cap that thins to spotting and a swirl.
Nose is bitter orange, grass, pine needle, stone fruits, papaya, mandarin.
Taste comprises orange pith, pine needle, dank chimes, light hop spice, grapefruit, lychee, faint minerality.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close punctured with juicy come resinous hop bitterness allied to a subtle boost.
Solid DIPA.

Panda thanks to Wingers. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a thin creamy sweetness, fairly dry. Light pine. Modern Mosaic bringing a light but recognisable blueberry and a modest mango led fruitiness. Unusually for these days, the candy fruits element is not invisible but quite surpressed. Light and semi dry finish. Tidy modern Mosaic dipa.

440ml can. Murky golden, white head. Aroma of ripe pineapple, mango, grapefruit. Taste is citrusy and tropical, mango, pineapple, grapefruit, very pithy citrus finish lingering. Decent DIPA but not among their best.
