Apologize Less - Cashmere, Mosaic, Dragon
Birds Fly South Ale Project

A: Pours a lightly hazy medium golden yellow in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising from the bottom of the glass and moderate bright yellow + pale yellow + pale apricot colored highlights. The beer has a three finger tall sudsy foamy white head that slowly reduces to a handful of small patches of medium thick film surrounded by a large patch of slightly mottled very thin film covering the remainder of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate to significant amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Slightly stronger than moderate aromas of tropical/passionfruit + citrus/lemon + citrus/grapefruit + herbal + floral hops over the top of light to moderate aromas of biscuit + pale malts with a light amount of grainy sweetness.

T: Upfront there are light to moderate flavors of biscuit + pale malts with a light amount of grainy sweetness. That is followed by slightly stronger than moderate flavors of tropical/passionfruit + citrus/lemon + citrus/grapefruit + herbal + floral hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which slowly fades away leaving lingering herbal + tropical hop flavors.

M: Light to medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly crisp upfront.

O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a pleasantly crisp + light + refreshing mouthfeel. Enjoyable combination of hops with tropical + citrus + floral + herbal hop flavors and aromas.

Picked up a four pack from TW-Greenville, SC 7-27-22 for $15.99. Canned 6-14-22, consumed for review 8-4-22 - National IPA day.

Beer poured gold with a nice white head that is leaving some lacing behind.

Nose is a nice mix of tropical, citrus, and floral hops but not super pungent.

Taste is well done, a light pale malt base that displays a blend of peach, tangerine, gooseberry. Finishes with a classic mosaic pine bite, 7/10 on my bitterness scale.

Mouthfeel is light bodied and very refreshing,

Overall i dig this IPA! Will have to look new releases of different hop variations in the future!
