We brought some of this (and other promising brews) to a party at a professor's home in Stanford without first trying it. Fortunately everyone who got a taste loved it. Perfect for a summer yard party.

16 fl oz. can, canned 05/15/2023. says BE MY BABY.
Says "Mosaic Hopped American Pale Ale" but I think we all know that's just a gimmicky moniker they slapped on a "Hazy" IPA, bro.
It pours hazy and orange juicy, not unlike your typical Hazy, bro.
Half finger of white froth head. Points for appearance, but this shit is played tf out.
Candy-ish aroma, sweet, sugary, almost invokes notes of cotton candy. Those floral elements of Mosaic hops (the part I love about Mosaic so much) is amplified by like 20x, clearly dry-hopped to absolute hell. I'm really starting to hate when they do this sort of shit, ruining what probably could have been a great beer. It has absolutely no business smelling this much like sugar.
Has the feel of a hazy & pulpy "Hazy" IPA. Juicy & acidic. Decently carbonated, but full in body, not easy to drink, too thick, too viscous, too much fucking hops, they could have brewed three separate beers with the amount of Mosaic crammed into this 4 pk. I'm not impressed.

poured from a 16oz can into a veil willi becher pint glass. pours a hazy bright orange with a frothy white foam head. bright, sweet berries on the nose with a hint of pine. taste follows with a medium-full mouthfeel. the mosaic really pops in this. i feel like the entire octopus series has been stellar and this is no exception. an incredible display of all-mosaic deliciousness.
