30/6/2020. Sample courtesy of the SHIG, cheers! Pours clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of hops, citrus, tropical fruit, sweet malt and a touch of pine. Medium plus sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, slight sticky texture, soft carbonation. Nice.

440ml can at home. Pours a traditional NEIPA murkiness with a medium off white head. Citrus, pink grapefruit, green onion, and mandarin in the aroma. Flavour is the same with more of the green onion and pink grapefruit evident. Smooth mouthfeel without being watered down.

330ml bottle via Beer52; BB 26th Feb 2021. White crown on a golden/amber body. Grapefruit on the nose, other citrus fruits join in flavour wise, alongside some piney notes and an underlying semi-sweet maltiness. Nice!

[33cl bottle from Beer52.] A golden amber pour with a long lasting white head; grapefruit aroma; full bodied, with caramel malts,a nd resinous hops adding a gentle but persistent bitterness; then a dry finish. A excellent showcase for Mosaic.

Foamy white head left a frothy cover on a pale amber coloured still body. Bitter hops, pithy & caramel aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & slightly tickly on the back with a sticky aft. Big hoppy start with pith, caramel, pine, grapefruit & bitter fruit with a sweeter confectionery tasting finish. Nice.

44 cl can @ home. BBE 08/2020 Nice aroma with resiny malt and mild fruitiness. Aroma is odd and musty with soil, some forest aroma and mold. Also some resiny malt in the background. Not a succedful brew.
