Lužická Mozaika 11°

Tap to rate

Lužická Mozaika brings a fresh yet soft fruity taste with a tropical-fruit aroma, thanks to a generous portion of American Mosaic hops added in the cold hopping at the end of lagering. It is a pale, unfiltered 11°, brewed with two mashes and bottom-fermented in an open fermenter. It succeeds Lužický Mandarin, which the brewery counted as its most popular special.

◐ Taste

Crisp entry with immediate tropical and stone-fruit notes carried by the noble hop character. The mid-palate remains smooth and balanced, with gentle grain sweetness supporting the hop bitterness without overwhelming it. Moderate bitterness at 38 IBU provides structure without astringency, and the finish is clean and refreshing.
