Butelka 0.5l (17.08.2015). Ciemno zlota barwa, piana biala, lekko przybrudzona, w miare trwala, ladnie krazkuje. Aromat srednio intensywny, owocow tropikalnych, cytrusowych. Piwo wytrawne ale lekkie i delikatne ze swietna chmielowo-cytrusowa goryczka. W posmaku srednio intensywna goryczka, niezalegajaca, zachecajaca do dalszej degustacji. Przyjemnie orzezwiajace i bardzo dobrze pijalne. Update 08.11.2015 Butelka 0.5l (13.04.2016). Piwo delikatnie mgliste o bursztynowej barwie, bialo-zoltej pianie, obfitej ale szybko redukujacej sie do cienkiego kozuszka. Aromat delikatny, w pierwszej chwili lesny, zywiczny po chwili ustepuje miejsca nutom typowym dla mosaic’u, naftowym. Mosaic rowniez rzadzi w smaku nadajac mu delikatnie wytrawny charakter, zywiczna goryczke, srednia, lekko zalegajaca ale przyjemna. Ogolnie calkiem przyjemna single hop apa choc ciut za lekkie, nieco plaskie i malo goryczkowe. Jednak mimo tego mosaic robi robote i dostajemy fajne, sesyjne piwko.

Hazy Amber color. Big caramel malty nose, with some perfumy notes. The mouth is astringent with stale hops and kinda a disaster in the mouth. Lingering hoppy finish, but I found the caramel was nasty and overwhelmed. Yuck

Piwo o bardzo ladnej busztynowej wpadajacej w miedziana barwie z genialna biala piana. Lacing tez wzorcowy. W aromacie jak mozna sie po AIPA spodziewac chmiel i ladne nuty cytrusowe zwlaszcza czerwonego grapefruita. Moze niezbyt intensywny ale przyjemnie drazniacy nozdrza. W smaku bardzo zdecydowana goryczka ale ladnie zbalansowana przez co piwo wydaje sie lekkie, troche wytrawne, gladkie. Pijalnosc bardzo dobra z bardzo przyjemna delikatna i niezalegajaca goryczka w posmaku.

Hazy amber colored with a strong and lasting white head. Citrus and tropical fruits, caramalty aroma. Taste is rather sweet caramalt start and at one point some light wheat, grapefruit, fruity to floral bitter dry finish. First sip seems light but overall impression would be medium bodied. Quite good.

Hazy, amber-red colored beer with high off-white head. No lacing. Beautiful strong citruses aroma. Very hoppy, but also there’s a phenolic scent in the back. Some flowers and beautiful maltiness are present too. Strong bitterness, heavy body. Medium carbonated. Alcoholic. Excellent beer.
