Modus Mosaic
Berries, tropical and citrus fruits lead, with papaya, orange and guava over a light sessional base; Mosaic is the main hop, with small additions of BRU-1 and Amarillo. The name nods to the mosaic tiles on the floor of the Marble Arch, Marble's grade 2 listed home pub in Manchester's Angel Meadow, known for its sloping mosaic floor, and to the hop itself. A 3.6% pale ale from the Specials, vegan.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Modus Mosaic
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
