Year of New Beer: Mosaic Sunset, Studio Brew (VA)

Written By: Dion on 03/23/2017

Caramel malt and alcohol seem to overpower pretty much any hint of Mosaic hops that might be found in the aroma. Similar story on the tongue as a malt forward, alcoholic base stifles a meager, spicy hop bite through the mid-palate. Only near the finish does a dry, citrus peel bitterness pull ahead. Not bad, but certainly not the showcase of the Mosaic hop that I was expecting.
