Mosaic
Temescal Brewing

 

 

 

Cloudy gold body with a finger of white head. Smell and taste are showcases of mosaic hops: pineapple, mango, peach, orange, light pear, with finishing pine and slight resin. Good balance in the mouthfeel, hop bitters cut through well, some bright floral impression sit atop it all, good malt backbone that pairs well with slight resin. Overall a good single hop ipa

Clear, pale yellow body; lively small bubble carbonation; loose and soapy white head, moderately sticky. Solid nose presence consisting of floral and fruit-like elements; berries, pear, kiwi. Deftly and delicately sweet malt character; gently sweet tropical and yellow stone fruit; pear and papaya; mild hop bitterness. Medium-light body; round; moderately dry overall yet with an overarching subtle residual sugar sweetness; soft.

This beer delivers a very pleasant and subdued hop profile experience. There is an undeniable soft-handed sweetness to the beer, mildly fruit-like yet offset with a satisfying light dryness. Balanced, nuanced, and quite crushable.
