IPA singularly hopped with Mosaic. Bursting with notes of fruit loops, stone fruit skin, with a pleasant grapefruit finish.

CANNED ON 02/06/25. Poured into a BA 25th Ann teku -- hell yeah.

A: Hazy Arnold Palmer hue with1-2 finger off-white frothy head with decent retention and sheets of bubbly lacing.

S: Moderately intense orange-pineapple citrus hop notes are strong and dominate. Herbal lemongrass undercurrent as it warms.

T: Flavor is a great balance of strong pale malty background supplying some backing sweetness that enhance the pineapple-orange-white grapefruit-tangerine citrus with underlying guava and mango hop notes. Delicious beer -- so well-balanced for the style -- malt sweetness elevating the hoppiness. Bitterness is low. Esters also low and fruity.

M: Highly drinkable with 6% ABV, medium body with high carbonation and medium dry finish.

O: Easily one of my favorite Veil beers -- so drinkable and packed with flavor that doesn't tread into that gritty green fruit territory that some Veil hazies move towards. Great beer and will be looking out for it everytime I am in my usual beer store.

Veil can be hit or miss for me, but this beer is a home run. When the brewers describe it as “bursting” with various fruity notes that are not exaggerating. And at only 6% ABV this beer is so tasty that I might be able to session it.
