We assembled Bits & Pieces from carefully chosen malt, yeast and the citrusy, tropical wonder that is Mosaic hops. But don’t get too hung up on the details, sit back and enjoy the big picture on this one.

Its just a well made IPA featuring mosaic hops. Reminds me of several other citrusy hop based IPAs. Its not exceptional, but its well made and easily drinkable.

Pours golden orange. Thick, medium, off white head that lasts a while with good lacing.
Smells malts, citrus, pine, floral.
Doughy and Caramel malts, light citrus and pine. Finish is semi sweet with light alcohol and a light pine almost medicinal linger. Medium body and creamy medium carbonation.
Not as strong smelling as i thought it would be and this is probably the sweetest ipa I've had to date and I've had a lot of ipas.

On-tap at Three Cellars, Franklin, WI:
Pours orange-tinted golden with a lasting thin white head that leaves lacing.
The smell is of citrus and tropical fruit, bread/dough.
The taste is of citric/tropical fruit and bread. Lively and well-balanced. A refreshing bitter bite in the finish.
Smooth medium body. Nice texture.
An easy-drinking well-balanced APA with a pleasant bitter dryness.

Saw these were just bottled on Twitter, and the price was ok at $7 a bomber.
Pours a bright saturated orange with a thin layer of frothy foam that fades away fairly quickly. A thin collar and broken veil of skim covers the surface. Minimal spotty lacing.
As it warms, there's a light hint of marmalade and guava, pretty faint though. Ale yeast comes through a bit stronger.
Taste is too subdued, hop flavor is barely there. Good level of bitterness, lightly citric bitter orange peel, resiny. Pale malt comes through with a yeasty note also. Light bodied, quenching and drinkable. It was decent, but hearing Mosaic I expected more tropical/dank/guava characteristics.
