Can from Jeremy. Pale, milky, hazy body, light bubbly head. Full grapefruit aroma, lemon. Taste brings some bready notes as well. Light, juicy, refreshing.

Had fresh on tap at the brewery. Tastes like a rank weed. Malty and dry. Not juicy at all.

can into glass
Thick, white head. Mostly clear, medium gold look. Light, floral and spiced malt aroma. Heavily citrus peel and herbal flavored, with an ample bite that lingers. Medium light body.

Pours a slightly hazy pale yellow. Big foam. Very dank aroma. Big dank hop body. Strong bitter finish. More of an old school IPA. A little watered down but pretty good.

Very good IPA - not too NEIPAy. Pour straw yellow with a nice head; decent lacing as you sip your way through the foam / beer. Light citrus smell with equally matching taste. A bit on the watery side but a very good beer!

16 oz can. Pours muddy orange with tall, long lasting, fluffy white head. Aroma is of citrusy hops, bready malt and tropical fruit. Body is medium and crisp. Taste is similar to aroma. Finish is long and dry. Good brew.

Decanted from a 16 oz (473 ml) to a conical pint glass; canned 05/06/20.
A: Pours a cloudy, lemon yellow color with a no more than one finger, white head, rim plus retention, and little or no lacing.
S: Aromas of white grapefruit, lemon, barley, oregano, and light pine. Barley and oregano strengthen as it warms.
T: Semidry. Palate flavors largely favor the nose with definitely lemon core, but again barley and oregano predominating. Slightly peppery bitterness is light with a clean, refreshing finish.
M: Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
O: Palatable, but not to my liking. Far too vegetal for my taste, to be honest.

My 4 pack (from Shaw’s in Ludlow) seems overcarbonated. Can’t pour it without excessive foaming. Once that settles down it tastes ok, if a bit sour for my taste. Not terrible, but nothing I’d buy again.

I normally love Mosaic hops. I tried three different cans in a four-pack; they were all disappointing. No head when poured, a little dirty golden-brown, neither cloudy nor clear. Bouquet quite yeasty, a (pseudo) Belgian note, kind of thin and bitter on the palate. I rarely pour beer away, I did it with this one.
