I hate Mosaic hops so that impacts this rating. +++ Sampled on draft at the brewpub this beer poured a reddish-caramel color with a large foamy tan head that lingered and left excellent lacing. The aroma was bitter and tart with cactus, catbox and pine notes. The flavor was tangy and sweet with catbox, cactus, lemon and pine. Long finish. Full bodied. Not my style.
