Clear, pale yellow body; dense, lazily rising carbonation; thick head, frothy and white, lasting. Nice aroma; a little subdued but with floral and light fruit notes. Rather bland taste; hints of bread crust; moderate hop bitterness; clean. Medium-light mouthfeel; crisp; feels 'bright' on the palate; semi-dry.
All factors with this beer lead me to see this as more of a hoppy lager of some sort, not an India pale ale. Hop presence in the taste, other than bitterness, and aroma lay low in the background. If this were a lager of some sort, it would rate much higher, but I just don't get the IPA aspect of this beer.
Pouring temperature: 43 °F; canning info: n/a

L - Crystal golden untfiltered haze (but NOT a hazy). Classic TRVE Champagne bubbles for minutes, good head retention, decent lacing remains around glass.
S - The weak point of this beer, maybe the Mosaic isn't allowed to shine given the Hallertau Blanc, Huell Melon, and Grungeist additions, but it does impart a strange Pilsner-meets-IPA-in-an-alley kind of aroma, that carries over to the
T - Taste is a muted mix of blueberries, dough, malt, crackers - really interesting - and very smooth in its impression.
F - Great mouthfeel, smoother and less bitter for those enjoy that, perfect carbonation. Just a subtler IPA from TRVE.
O - Glad I got this, canned about 3 weeks ago (12.7.22) and drinking nicely - it's a different IPA for TRVE, and almost carries off a Pilsner/IPA combo in its overall impression. If you see, give it a try AND a review.
