I Caught My First Tube This Morning... Sir
Pomona Island Brew Co

Copenhagen 9/1 2022. 44 cl can from Mikkeller web-shop. Light blue can with a simple drawing in red of a talking middle-aged gentleman.

Pours opaque, milky, pale yellow with a big white head. Stable. Settles as uneven, lumpy layer of foam unable of completely covering the surface of the beer. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is moderately intense with a light fruity odor mingling with stronger citric notes. Sweet peach and apricot. Citrus and lime.

Light carbonation. Medium thick, watery, soft, smooth, gently tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong sweetness followed and balanced by a medium strong yet gentle bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter with a sweet undertone. Lingers for a bit. Finish is semi-dry.

Well-balanced and perfectly pleasant Pale Ale.

Pours a hazy, dark orange coloration with a medium, fluffy, lasting head. Smells of biscuity malt and tropical/citrus hops, with the tropical aromas of mango and passion fruit standing out particularly, with some lighter grapefruit. Taste is a great balance of biscuity malt and slightly bitter and resinous hops, with strong tropical and lighter citrus notes of mango, passion fruit and grapefruit, as well as just a hint of pine and herbal accents. Finishes with a light/medium bitterness and some tropical and herbal notes lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a light/medium body and medium carbonation.

Although this may feel just a tad light-bodied, it's still a very enjoyable single-hopped Pale Ale that impressively shows off Mosaic's flavor variety with some herbal, resinous, tropical and citrus notes, as well as a good bitterness in the finish. The nose is particularly nice here, with an intoxicating aroma of fresh and juicy tropical aromas.
