22oz bottle undated purchased at Moonshine. Hazy orange color and citrusy nose. Citrus flavors such as orange, pineapple and mango come through with a background of grapefruit especially on the finish. An enjoyable beer.

Hazy, golden-orange. Nicely carbonated. Mosaic normally isn’t one of my favorite hops, but this is terrific! TG makes so many outstanding IPAs and DIPAs and this yet another.
