Constellation: Mosaic
4 Hands Brewing Co.

My neighbor and I found a bottle of this down state in Champaign IL. It poured a hazy yellow with fizzy white head that did not leave much lace. The scent had hints of Brett and ripe fruit. The taste followed suit. The Mouthfeel is lighter in body with fizzy carbonation. Overall it's ok.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pours a bright straw color with much effervescence & a pinky of beige head. Hazes a bit as the bottle is drained, not much head retention or lacing

S: Mango, pears & grassiness & papaya late

T: Mango, pineapple, a little dryness, some pear & grassiness & some grapefruit up front. Slight Brett sourness as this warms, then mango, pineapple & grapefruit. Finishes with much grapefruit, a little sourness & lemon zest, some mango & dryness as well, some orange peel as well

MF: Medium body, delicate carbonation, nice balance

The brett influence is minimal, but is there. This drinks very easy, well worth a go

 

 

 

 

Aroma is really funky Mosaic hops and tropical fruit. The flavor is Mosaic hops, tropical fruit, slight hop resin, an undercurrent of mild sugar/sweetnessmalts and a mix of bitter and funky in the finish.

 

 

 

Light gold to straw in color with excellent clarity. There's a fingernail of brilliant white resting on top. The aroma is comprised of a very subdued blend of mosaic hops light biscuit malt. The tart Brett aroma is nowhere to be found. It's as if the mosaic hops quashed them and yet the hops are hardly noticeable. The taste brings the mosaic hops to the forefront and you get that tart Brett note in the back of the palate. The mouth is highly carbonated and very dry.
