I've just tasted this for the first time from a bomber and it's perfect. It has a lovely floral aroma with a hint of tropical fruit and it leaves great lacing on the glass. The taste is very balanced and only hints at the ABV (could be dangerous) with a great mouthfeel. I would recommend this to anyone. I'd love to taste it on draught.

T: Hops are there with a nice bitter finish.
F: Pretty clean and crisp nice balance hops to malt.
O: Good IPA not bad better than most brewed in B.C.

650ml bottle - 'Spirited | Passion Fruit | Flashy' - could this be any more west coast hippy in its marketing?
This beer pours a clear, bright medium copper amber colour, with three zaftig fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some sudsy continental drift lace around the glass as it lazily recedes.
It smells of grainy and bready caramel malt, some muddled tropical fruitiness, a minor edgy cattiness, subtle earthy yeasty notes, and some robust leafy, musty, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, estery orange, red grapefruit, and lemon citrus rind, still hard to parse but easy to enjoy all the same exotic fruit, a fading cat pee thing, and more edgy leafy, herbal, and resinous pine verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite light in its palate-coddling frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and mostly smooth, with maybe a bit of piney acerbity making gravy hereabouts. It finishes off-dry, the base malt holding steady, while the mixed fruit and forest floor detritus pass it on both sides.
Overall, this is a generally agreeable single-hopped IPA, with the ABV kept to sensible (low, even) levels. Easy to drink, with lots of complex hop essences gadding about, and definitely worth checking out, especially if you're a fan (who has two thumbs and, oh, never mind) of the Mosaic varietal.
