Mosaic Promise showcases two unique ingredients: Mosaic hops and Golden Promise malt. The versatility of the hop’s pleasing aroma and flavor characteristics and the traditional barley’s depth of flavor comprise this clean, rich, golden beer. We can brew complex beers with the best of them, but we recognize that there is also beauty in simplicity.

Tap at Founders tap-takeover @ Devil Craft Gotanda, Tokyo. Pours nice bright yellow, bit of white foam also there. Aroma has this brisk fruit characteristics, some passion fruit and papaya in front of lemongrass. Great balance with the body, not too overpowering from either side but having still lots of flavour. Feels really fresh and drinks fast, excellent stuff!

Flaska från SB. Smak och doft av humle, citrus, gräs med toner av tropiska frukter som passionsfrukt och ananas. Torr, rund och len, fruktig och frisk, bra balans, fin beska med smak av citrusskal och tall. Gott!

Bottle from Stone in Asagaya. Pours a clear gold with a finger of foam that dissipates quickly. Big, dank mosaic nose that goes on and on. Well-balanced and maybe a tad heavier than I like w/r/t body. More citrus and light tropical on the palate. Finish is quite bitter. Still, nice enough though.

Bottled:
Pale, hazy amber with a thick head.
Aroma is sweaty hops, nettles and goose berries.
Taste is hops, orange peels, grape fruit and pine needles.
Goes down very easy.

Bottle. Smells slightly like BO, pew. Taste is what else? Bitter nasty rude IPA. Terribly on style. Mouth coating rude chewing on green grapefruit rinds mixed with pine tar soap and sap dripping spruce bark. Not impressed, like so many other ubiquitous over the top IPA or impy IPA.

35,5 cl bottle @ home. Aroma feels a bit musty with tropical fruits, resin, biscuits and some bush leaves. Flavour has juicy tones, minerals, tropical fruits and resin. Also some bush leaves. A bit watery and somewhat disappointing.

Bottled, from Systembolaget. Cloudy golden, mid sized head. Rich aroma of passionfruit and grapefruit. Mid dry with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Hop forward with zesty tropical fruits. Long bitter finish.
